Professionally, I work to make our cities better. Sactown ➡️ NYC ➡️ SF
I ❤️ cities, pop culture, prestige TV, crap TV, dogs, well-researched podcasts, dumb jokes, smart jokes, & being curious.
Will eat the rest of that if you’re not going to finish it.

My theory is that Trump activated the bigotries even of the marginalized groups he threatened, against other marginalized groups he also threatened. So white women voted their racism, minority men voted their misogyny, older immigrants voted against newer ones, everyone voted their transphobia, etc.

This is not some “new” Zuck. For two years I was one of a small group of civil rights leaders who regularly pressed Zuckerberg to deal w/disinformation, hate speech, voter suppression & Trump incitement on the platform. Myanmar had already happened so we knew the danger of unfettered speech.

The end of the road for me was Kenosha. Facebook had an explicit policy against posting “calls to arms.” A rightwing militia group posted a flyer literally called “a call to arms.” Kyle Rittenhouse took up arms, traveled to Kenosha & killed two men. www.forbes.com/sites/alison...
Zuckerberg Admits Facebook ‘Mistake’ In Leaving Up Kenosha Guard ‘Call To Arms’
The Facebook CEO said the moderation team dedicated to militia groups “didn’t pick this up” when initially reviewing the page.

I’ve been to Lake Como which is obviously stunning… and, like, Lake Tahoe is in its league.

To be fair, you do have some incredible sweaters. Which clearly = sophistication.
