I miss the era when we didn't have to include any of the ff:
- "Comments are my own, not my employer's."
- "Reshare ≠ endorsement."
- "I only represent myself."
- "only me"
In our era, people understand simple things and don't create fiction like accusing one that they acted on behalf of their employer. In many sci-fi stories, the more "advanced" a society becomes, the less they understand simple things and the more they assume incorrectly.
Intergalactic societies rely on the primitive earthlings to solve something because they are no longer capable of thinking in simple terms and their brains automatically assume this and that as the logical path or solution. Earthlings can do it because they're still primitive.
That same idea applies to within Earthling society.
For example, in one country, they cried foul and forced a fictional TV series to be cancelled because they supposedly disrespected a national and historical icon despite the show explicitly and visibly stating, "This is fictional and a work of art." South-East Asians (who they looked down and treat less than them), were baffled because, it's **fiction**!
It's the same in the social media space. You have to state the obvious. In fact, even if you state the obvious, if they want to bring you down, they will.
Crazy times to live in! 😝
