Every one of these "production shell companies" that Thiel and them finance each have a marketing budget. That budget goes to click farms and they don't just promote the project, they drive engagement by pissing people off and everyone keeps falling for the fake negativity.

Ya'll don't have to be weird, aggressive and insincere anymore. Just say thinkgs that you really care about and we'll actually get workers rights reforms and honest management of public goods.

I left my wallet at my bodega. got it back with cash in it. I lady I never met before and never will kindly demanded I get rung out before her even though I got out of the line to find something at the grocery store. If you stop letting twitter set the tone for your life, you'll see how you're surrounded by kindness.

Stop getting angry over fake comments and start feeling optimist that most of us are actually nice people when we're not on the internet.

    log off and do real political action several times here

    This is kind of the problem. You're coming from the right place but you still think these comments matter in and of themselves. I can read thousands of fake comments and never get angry if I don't trick myself into thinking they're real. The internet is a powerful tool for organization if you don't get distracted by corporate optics instead of focusing on countering their tactics.

    The real world organizing is more important than ever but why are we pretending its hard to post 10 positive tweets? That shit takes 20 minutes if you can think clearly and it might help but it definitely doesn't cost anyone anything and you can do it over your morning coffee. Stop being drama queens. Doing politics is safe, easy and fun if you're not arguing with bots all day.

    All dichotomies are false, never accept the premise.

      You’re coming from the right place but you still think these comments matter in and of themselves.

      What in the absolute value of fuck are you talking about? When did I say this? You need to develop your dialectics because they fucking suck tbh. You just want to argue with someone without even hearing what they're saying. Like you've been having this argument in your head and you need to get it out. Start a blog if you just want to write some stuff.

      All dichotomies are false, never accept the premise.

      Guys the dichotomy between slave and owner, lord and subject, employer and worker are false. Guess that settles that.
