They decided to sell it as "waste, fraud and abuse" and got 79 million mouth-breathing morons to embrace that message in a monstrous act of self-harm on 5 November 2024

The only reason this isn’t considered trafficking via fraud is because crime is something poor people do
Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.

This is disgraceful. Protesting against a genocide is not disrespectful to -anybody- and portraying it as such adds to tensions, and doesn't do anything to lessen them.

Yes. Republicans are about to murder TikTok, which means BookTok dies.
In all seriousness, publishers are going to have to figure out how to market books in the post-social-media landscape. That should be an implicit part of their job. What authors/artists can do on their own is increasingly limited and siloed.

How to build a social-media site:
-Build app
-Let trans, sw & leftists make the platform popular
-Rightwingers & centrist contrarians get attracted by the harrassment potential
-Start restricitvely moderating so that original users have to flee
-Now you know have yet another shit social media site!
