Wrapping things up with Chris & Rich, we discuss how public relations is, literally, a euphemism for propaganda, manufacturing opinion, euphemisms and twisting words to fit the propagandist's purpose, informational overload creating political non-entities, and partisanship rotting political, cultural and social institutions.
Also:
-Abandoning basic American principles; Patriotism's vicious backlash
-Social upheaval or an authoritarian police state resulting from the governed revoking their consent
-The Great Utopia is not only impossible, its illusion is held together only by chains
-The ridiculous argument that people are voting "against their own interest"
-Morally self-righteous bigotry and Wokeflakes poking the Crackerbear

-The "wisdom" of youth.
-More on thoughtless opinions.

6/12/19: The Social Media Disease - Net Rage, Poking the Ape, Unleashing the Id
Cyber Space Monkeys continued. In part 1-of-3, I'm joined by Chris & Rich from Unregimented to discuss the effects of social media on individuals and society as a whole. Propaganda kerosene and the disinformation detonator, the connection between road rage and net rage, much of the IDW: for-profit social media brands and "right adjacent" influencers producing "content" for handouts, Nicholas Carr and how the Internet physically changes our brains, good deeds done solely to post the selfie, and more.

5/31/19: Propaganda 101: Corrupt Data & Distinguishing Truth From Falsehood
“There can be no liberty for a community which lacks the means by which to detect lies.”
“Where all think alike, no one thinks very much.” -Walter Lippmann
Also: The difference between clever & smart and more on the DIKW pyramid and what happens when citizens ignore corrupt data.
- Justin Amash and the criticism from the left.
- Mueller's fumble and the Democrat's ensuing demand that he star in their 2020 reality show/campaign ad.
- To Impeach or not Impeach: just do it or STFU!
- Democrats are politically impotent to stop anything Trump does. How does that "protest vote" look now?

5/23/19: The Social Media Disease - Illusion of Knowledge & Democratized Opinion
Technology enables, and social media perpetuates, prioritizing the cheap appearance of knowledge instead of fostering knowledge itself. Also, how the Internet changes cognition and the abandonment of expertise to the holy opinion: "my ignorance is equal to your knowledge."
Also:
-The DIKW pyramid and drowning in data.
-The Id on Parade, the natural state of man, and Leviathan.
-What happens when reasonable voices abandon the public square to mindless mobs of roving avatars?
-When avatars attack
-A classic full-frontal Toddzilla rant salvaged from The Lost Episode about Twitter, and more.
