  • The USA information systems, "the media", "the mainstream media", "the news media", "the social media systems".

    Attracted to what. People seek out and subscribe to what. When every channel on YouTube is free, when every Reddit subreddit is no-cost no subscription fee, what do people seek?

      Why can't a billionaire actually say something correct, true, factual, sincere, earnest, and good? Why can't a billionaire actually be authentic and honest?

      Why can't social media consumers recognize fact from fiction? Why can't social media users say: that fact is correct. Just because billionaires Rupert Murdoch, Donald Trump and Elon Musk constantly deceive and manipulate about medical science, why do people have to jump to the simple binary conclusion that all billionaires are always wrong.

      "The next outbreak? We’re not ready | Bill Gates | TED"

      • Why oh why can social media users since December 2019, in year 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 not say / not communicate the most simple factual statement about the situation? Why let RFK Jr and Donald Trump billionaires spokesmen speak for anti-science and anti-goodness and not point to science information being used as a warning to be prepared?

         

        "Bill Gates was correct to warn everyone, to pull the alarm bell in April 2015 about pandemic preparation"

    • "The unformulated message of an assembly of news items from every quarter of the globe is that the world today is one city. All war is civil war. All suffering is our own." - University of Toronto's Marshall McLuhan

       

      All war is love of something or someone, fetish of something or someone, killing an enemy is because you love your homeland. Killing an enemy of a religion, infidel, gentile, holy war - is because you love your science fiction story.

    With her issavan essavans and her patterjackmartins about all
    them inns and ouses. Tilling a teel of a tum, telling a toll of a tea-
    ry turty Taubling. Grace before Glutton. For what we are, gifs
    à gross if we are, about to believe. So pool the begg and pass the
    kish for crawsake. Omen. So sigh us. Grampupus is fallen down
    but grinny sprids the boord. Whase on the joint of a desh? Fin-
    foefom the Fush. Whase be his baken head? A loaf of Singpan-
    try's Kennedy bread. And whase hitched to the hop in his tayle?
    A glass of Danu U'Dunnell's foamous olde Dobbelin ayle. But,
    lo, as you would quaffoff his fraudstuff and sink teeth through
    that pyth of a flowerwhite bodey behold of him as behemoth for
    he is noewhemoe. Finiche! Only a fadograph of a yestern scene.
    Almost rubicund Salmosalar, ancient fromout the ages of the Ag-
    apemonides, he is smolten in our mist, woebecanned and packt
    away. So that meal's dead off for summan, schlook, schlice and
    goodridhirring.
