The Decline and Fall of the Ultra-Wealthy Tech Bro's

By now you've probably heard about all of the problems at Twitter, and how Elon Musk is facing a financial catastrophe. However, that's just the part of the iceberg that the ultra-wealthy Titanic hit that is visible. Most of the damage is below the surface.
Be prepared to shed a few tears for ultra-wealthy a**holes having to sell their second super-yacht.

A revealing Facebook exchange, also, Joe Biden's climate liaison

When I criticized the Facebook "Clash against the Right" group on Facebook:

The group "Clash Against the Right" is not really against the Right -- they're totally fine with the Right, as long as its patrons have the magic (D) symbol next to their names.

I received this response:

So Facebook has disabled Doug Henwood's account UPDATED

Some of you may know Doug Henwood as the individual who had a show that could be found on Pacifica Radio and its affiliates. Well, the "discussion section" for general issues of global politics which accompanied that radio show was on Doug Henwood's Facebook profile, which has been disabled. No reason given, no appeal process, nothing.

Corporatocracy and the Rise of Corporate Republics

Corporatocracy (/ˌkɔːrpərəˈtɒkrəsi/, from corporate and Greek: -κρατία, romanized: -kratía, lit. 'domination by', short form corpocracy, is a recent term used to refer to an economic and political system controlled by corporations or corporate interests. It is most often used as a term to describe the economic situation in the United States.

Calling Dr. Zuckerberg, Dr. Zuckerberg! OR FaceBook health data mining

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. At least so its says in some document under glass in the Smithsonian. First item on the list = life. A good life is synonymous with good health. This essay is not about Medicare for All/Single Payer (MFA/SP) but deals with today's nightmare, surveillance state scenarios.

First we have the mollifying "explanations" for certain actions, and then analysis of what all this really means.

Sending Facebook the wrong message--it's not just Zuckerberg who needs to go

I received this petition request in my mailbox (on my secret server) from SumOfUs.org lamenting the enormous data breach earlier this year from Facebook's vaults (and indeed they are vaults, so transformed by Zuck. with all that salable information). This is not the biggest breach, consider the Equifax hack; but it's certainly near the top of the list. Bank of America was hacked. What large corp. hasn't been hacked.
