I’m not sure what the phrase “fake outrage” would actually mean, but the outrage I feel seems pretty real to me.

    Oh they see me as all that Fox News has told them I am, and they behave like pack animals any view that doesn’t fit in. It’s kind of scary.

    I too, enjoyed the brief period of the enlightenment and renaissance of the early days of the internet before it became weaponized. I even thought in 2007 the first iPhone was a true moment of change, I was right, but very very wrong at the same time.

    Smartphones killed the internet we once thought possible.

    And here we are like refugees in a tiny corner of the internet, trying to stay away from all the awful, yet still be connected.

    I’m grateful I knew that fleeting world.
