US politics seems to dominate my #socialmedia feeds of late. For me #ukrain and the middle #east problems are more important right now.

On a bus ride through #SanktPauli quarter of #hamburg. Questioning the need to put on one's #sexual preferences out there. Ok there are commercial reasons but I think that it also invites #descrimination ?

Hate! A big driver of political persuasion. Much more popular than Love as a message these days. If the politician uses hate, they're from the dark side. Sad I even have to say that, but test it. You will find only criticism, no positive ideas. Don't amplify their message by sharing or commenting.

I joined BlueSky to comment on music as well as current affairs. I see I have not mentioned music for months. Seems the shit show in the USA has sucked up all attention and is even affecting the entertainment business. I miss normality, it was good for business, and you know what that means.

Instagram is not a necessity. And yes I do think it's boring and overly ego focused. Suppose there is no social media that is essential.

A big part of the #usa problem is the notion that "the customer is always right"! So #money rules. The thing is that quite often the customer and the supplier or service provider, lack moral judgement. #Crypto #Dollar #Democracy #CORRUPTION #greed #power

There is still a necessity to be active on #socialmedia however the value is no longer what it was. New #tech and manipulation practices has muddied the waters to the point of almost totally obliterating the validity of many posts.

So much bad news in the media that it's hard to pick one theme to highlight. I go for #globalwarming today. And I do think we have a duty to pick one. #climatechange #floods #greenhousegas #fosilfuel #extremeweather #glaciamelt #drought #capitalism . It should cut across all party lines.
