   “When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; culture-death is a clear possibility.”
   ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business

     This is the same hate-glee that you saw at the voting booth earlier this month in USA, now being expressed as pleasure hate on Bluesky. #BlockHappyBluesky

     They are so proud of the hate for hate battles. They do not care that the entire USA is now United States of Hate under Russia, they only care that they get the machine screen game of pressing hate buttons on individuals. First person shooter simulation of Surkov out-group hate patterns.

     Nobody educating the fallen.

     Bill repeated this.
