The brutality is built right into the platform (as well as other social media platforms) and it can spill over into reality in terrible, evil ways. Consider the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar. This genocide used Facebook to incite terrible, brutal v lego daily bugle iolence in the real world. The New York Times conducted an in-depth investigation of this genocide and reported what they found in this article: A Genocide Incited on Facebook, With Posts From Myanmar's Military
"Members of the Myanmar military were the prime operatives behind a s hot wheels city ystematic campaign on Facebook that stretched back half a decade and that targeted the country's mostly Muslim Rohingya minority group, the people said. The military exploited Facebook's wide reach in Myanmar, where it is so broadly used that many of the country's 18 million internet users confuse the Silicon Valley social media platform with the internet. Human rights groups blame the anti-Rohingya propaganda for inciting murders , rapes and the largest forced human migration in recent history."
Barry is absolutely correct, this is a case for the all the Colu lego chima mbo(s), the Poirot(s), and the Marple(s) of the underworld of man's psyche. I've been writing about this ( and by the way sharing it in EoST to the sound of silence ) for quite some time. I dubbed this work the work of Consciousness Warriors. I suspect my work is too artistry and suspicious for the Systems Thinkers of EoST. Indeed, Barry's thinking seems to be received this way as well, which is a lost for the group.
And Π 's inexplicable misconceptions in that regard helped me appreciate why Bebe reacted so strongly about the lack of empathy she encountered in EoST. I'm quite used to it, as almost no one ever gets it right when they try to assess my emotional state. Long ago, I learned that I have to expressly say that I'm chagrinned or disappointed or vexed and perplexed by some observable phenomenon on the social networks. But even h aving done so, Π still asserted an inexplicably incorrect character model, a lol doll house s if I were some chimera of his imagination.
All things, good and bad , hold power to awaken and illuminate more of who we are as tiny flecks of illuminated consciousness . Four years earlier, I was ing for venues to share a documentary I made about the first Women's March. It was a super historical event. One that emerged organically like a super sentient being dressed in pink . This being, feminine of course , was a counter force rising in the wake of Donald Trump's 2016 election win. The el
ection that landed him in the White House.
