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

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

Twitter is bleeding users

Facebook is, too

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

google+ is dead

Google will be too in 10 years

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

and play our vidya

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

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

Ding

There is no war in Ba Sing Se.

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

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

Not a disaster

Just "oh well shit that sucks.

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

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

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.

My progressive friends that is

obviously now its so open and blatant, that even your average person can see there is something very wrong here

Exactly (and because we don't go to church too much)

and thats where theyre making the mistake, pushing way too far being overconfident

Even my mother who cant stand politics now sees what she calls and i quote: "a bunch of pathetic women whining about everything"

and she's about as liberal as one can get mind u

Doesn't this study also strongly contradicts what the google leak thing assessed ?

whats that?

Just lurking don’t mind me

Like I said. The idea that social media is this monolithic powerful structure is sort of...it's only that way because the majority deigns to permit it.

iirc it assessed that people want more PC on their social media and moderation, unless there is disconnect between the common folk and internet users

Most regular people use social media for family anyway

^

The issue with progressive (used here colloquially) people is they forget that the majority don't want the glorious revolution or huge social upheval they want and when they display it they get smacked.

I have an average Human being close to me, that shows that politics aren't of importance...

And if they see someone in their family with a left or right approach they’ll probably block them for the most part

They’re not progressive though.

I wish politics weren’t important

well it totally depends on what is actually going on in reality

It’d be such a simple life

I mean; I promote reasoned discussion, if at all possible.
