I… I thought a middle manager is any manager who’s not the very lowest manager, and not the CEO? As in, any manager who has managers above and below them?

Calm yourself, man. You seem a little bit emotional there. How on earth do you presume to know my political affiliations when you don’t even know which side of the fucking planet I’m on? Get a grip.

Where do they say that they want microphones listening to people? Just because someone doesn’t like some ways of talking, doesn’t mean that they want 1984-style surveillance of everyone.

“Lalaland” gets my vote, given that they have completely lost any sense of reality.

Someone who reads, but does not post or comment. Someone who’s here, but doesn’t really participate.

What you’re saying is true, but we must also remember that construction is always slower than destruction. What this means is that slow, steady improvements are not newsworthy - and thus gets no airtime - compared to destruction which happens over night and is thus newsworthy.

So there is also a lot of slow, steady improvements going on in the world that we never hear about. There’s not enough of it, I don’t think, to offset the big evils of greed, climate change, and fake news. But it is there, and we must not forget it.

Yes, and the same goes for “medium”: one medium, several media. When people say “media” now, they typically mean what used to be referred to as “mass media”, that is, newspapers, TV, etc.

I think you’re taking this a bit more seriously than it’s intended to be, but yeah, there have been Democrat presidents, but there still isn’t gun control, univseral healthcare (not even for children!), etc.

If the republicans win, it goes further right. If the democrats win, it stays where it is. So the only movement is to the right, never left.

“We”? Who are “we”? Star fleet?

People have to remember that this is the Internet, this thing is global.
