Twitter For Good.

The ability to use Twitter to speak Truth to Power™ should not be understated.

Twitter stands for freedom of expression. We stand for speaking truth to power. And we stand for empowering dialogue.

I commit to using the privilege I currently have to always speak this truth to power, and to ensure the common good leads everything we do.

Having watched the development of the F-35 and the difficulties with that program I asked General Chuck Yeager for his opinion on the jet.

Too expensive

President elect Trump shortly thereafter tweeted about the cost overruns.

The F-35 program and cost is out of control. Billions of dollars can and will be saved on military (and other) purchases after January 20th.

Recommendations for Twitter, Twitter DC and government to facilitate the ability to speak with our elected representatives & government as follows.

1.  White House Administration and Senate/House Committees list Office Holders, Members and relevant Staff twitter accounts on the committee websites.
2.  Twitter compile and make a database available of relevant office holders and staff twitter accounts across government.

 

 

 

Does “Fifth Estate” @Shervin Despise Native Americans? #nodapl @nodapl

Ask not what @shervin can do for you!  Ask what you can do for @Shervin.

Kind of a bit different than the immortal words of President Kennedy, but I found Billionaire Boys Club @Shervin isn’t exactly an open and outgoing fellow on twitter.

 

The 5th Estate is now born. Social media as a new power in world affairs.

Shervin said he wanted to know Tribal leaders.

Can anyone connect me to leadership of the sovereign indigenous tribes of California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada? #newcalifornia

And after helping him @shervin blocked me for a tweet.

Is he racist?  Hates Native Americans?  Thinks they should be consigned to life on barren reservations?

And he blocked me.

I guess I was wrong about his interest in connecting with Native American Indians.

I invite you all to visit Fort McDermitt Indian Reservation in northwestern Nevada on google earth.

You decide if a new app or infrastructure development would help.

 

I thought, perhaps mistakenly, @shervin funded infrastructure.  Perhaps not.

You can’t even politely invite these techies out of their self imposed bubble.

The Epic Schlemiel (Self Mocking, Humorous Clown) of $TWTR, @Nymag’s @jessesingal.

WordPress blogger Menachem Feuer has a wonderful blog on Jewish humor, The Home of Schlemiel Theory.

It is my contention that Jesse Singal, fake news (self admitted!) writer for New York Mag is a Schlemiel.

What else could he be?

He admits to having taken part in the production of fake news.  Yet he was an editor at prestigious New York Magazine.

As a classical liberal opposed to censorship I think it’s Jack Dorsey that is dumb, but Jesse is ok with “Dumb Twitter.”

https://twitter.com/jessesingal/status/716838084558594048

He is ok with a revolution, as long as he profits.  This seems somewhat anti revolutionary doesn’t it?

He’s basically Castro’s Lieutenant hoping he doesn’t get shot by firing squad.

Jesse, ostensibly a science writer, thought people NOT communicating was a great way to make change.

Basically Jesse Singal was instrumental in electing Donald Trump.  I bet he can’t figure out how though.

Time to put the race and gender baiters back in the closet, liberals. It's not working for you or the country.

Is Jesse a self mocking Schlemiel?

He’s so awful many people I know voted Trump just because they read his timeline where he admitted to writing fake news.

 

He doesn’t speak the language
He holds no currency
He is a foreign man
He is surrounded by the sound…

He’s surrounded by Jesse Singal, a journalist for a presitigious publication in New York calling him “dumb”.

https://twitter.com/jessesingal/status/804338478704107520

The only question is if Jesse Singal is self aware, or if he unintentionally a satire of a liberal?
