my god

2018-10-10 21:01:59 UTC  

Yeah. that's...a thing.

2018-10-10 21:02:02 UTC  

well, their PR isn't the best

2018-10-10 21:02:08 UTC

2018-10-10 21:02:23 UTC  

```progressives are hyper focused on shit no one cares about```
Yeah and they are a minority, though very vocal and powerful...

2018-10-10 21:02:30 UTC  

most people just do not really care about them...

2018-10-10 21:02:33 UTC  

Very very powerful.

2018-10-10 21:02:48 UTC  

If 8% can dominate so much of society....

2018-10-10 21:02:51 UTC  

Black lives matter has some legimate grievances with police, but BLM literally picks the worst people to defend

2018-10-10 21:02:55 UTC  

Not really powerful

2018-10-10 21:02:59 UTC  

just good at appearing so

2018-10-10 21:03:11 UTC  

See:Any time progressives overtake an industry it dies

2018-10-10 21:03:20 UTC  

But they have so much influence or outright control over media and tech.

2018-10-10 21:03:20 UTC  

But hold on guys, all this backlash is coming from russian botfarms controlling everything in every western society.

2018-10-10 21:03:20 UTC  

They are powerful because people let them be powerful, not because they really have any power

2018-10-10 21:03:27 UTC  

It's an illusion of power via overwhelming dedication

2018-10-10 21:03:30 UTC  

well, except for Google + Facebook and Twitter

2018-10-10 21:03:36 UTC  

Even those

2018-10-10 21:03:39 UTC  

think about it

2018-10-10 21:03:56 UTC  

They only really function because of the supermajority of people who don't really support that stuff

2018-10-10 21:04:19 UTC  

Dude, their leadership was weeping in that leaked post-election video.

2018-10-10 21:04:23 UTC  

They exist merely at the whims of the majority of normal, nonhyperengaged people

2018-10-10 21:04:42 UTC  

Twitter is bleeding users

2018-10-10 21:04:45 UTC  

Facebook is, too

2018-10-10 21:04:47 UTC  

They exist because the Majority isn't vocal but silent and let them do their shit.

2018-10-10 21:04:48 UTC  

google+ is dead

2018-10-10 21:04:57 UTC  

Google will be too in 10 years

2018-10-10 21:05:01 UTC  

the Majority doesn't care so long as we can post our memes

2018-10-10 21:05:11 UTC  

and play our vidya

2018-10-10 21:05:24 UTC  

So what do you guess will be the ground to dismiss this study ?

2018-10-10 21:05:46 UTC  

They won't dismiss. They just won't acknowledge. Doesn't fit the narrative so it doesn't exist.

2018-10-10 21:05:50 UTC  

Ding

2018-10-10 21:05:55 UTC  

There is no war in Ba Sing Se.

2018-10-10 21:06:34 UTC  

Remember, though, for MOST people, if social media died tomorrow, it'd be an annoyance.

2018-10-10 21:06:52 UTC  

Im surprise there havent been meme edits of trump and the ba sing se walls

2018-10-10 21:07:00 UTC  

Not a disaster

2018-10-10 21:07:06 UTC  

Just "oh well shit that sucks.

2018-10-10 21:07:20 UTC  

"guess I gotta like..email my mates or call them"

2018-10-10 21:07:33 UTC  

Yea, not acknowledging sounds about right. When I posted about the sokal hoax they didn't even bother addressing it.

2018-10-10 21:07:42 UTC  

I think it only gotten to this point because people have busy lives and not the time to waste on thinking deeply about political stuff.
