Is the Internet outside your house?
« on: 15/07/2021 17:48:40 »
With all the online racism following the Soccerball Cup on Sunday, plus the fact criminals also are known to try and pull a few scams and people get very worked up about people typing things, such as Donald trump, I wonder whether we are expecting too much.

If you stepped outside your front door, you would not give your bank details to someone you did not know. You would not go to certain places because you would know that they would be rude or racist and abusive. You would not go to Donald Trumps House and expect him to be worrying about climate change.

I agree. I have no idea why anyone follows anyone else on Twitter, but at least half the people I see walking or on public transport seem to be carrying other people's opinions around with them, or playing a game they can't win.

The media controls your entire thought process.  What do you know about Donald Trump that the media did not implant in your mind?  Really name just one thing
