     @aral

     when i was a child, my mother used this colloquialism: "if you run with the wolves, you howl with the wolves."

     fast-forward to present day, in which this same woman tells me, "If she [Kamala Harris] wins you'll get communism. If Trump wins you get freedom. I vote for democracy over communism. Sad world."
     and then sends me links to... Facebook.

     and the app used to message me this swill? Instagram chats.

     so no, i don't want any more #Meta in my life, #SocialWebFoundation thanks.

     Historians will look back and marvel at how we let a handful of billionaires poison our minds and planet
