Don't know if this person worked at FB, but FB literally has its walls covered in propaganda posters, designed to "inspire" but I find them to be disturbing.
i once worked in a small company that had a new ceo. he read about the posters at facebook and decided to invent some of his own, so he came up with a stupid phrase and got designers to mock a bunch up and print them out (if i remember correctly, it was some variant of "Keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times" and had pictures of rollercoasters).
the posters were very effective at getting us to stop taking the new ceo seriously.
I hate these much less than I expected to honestly. In the context of Facebook they feel a bit dishonest, but the messages they convey are pretty nice.
I suspect they all could be British English, since the variations are less pronounced that one might think:
re: Focused - to quote Wiktionary:
"The spelling focused is much more common in the US but also more common in the UK and Australia.
The Oxford English Dictionary describes the spelling focussed as irregular."
Speaking a native British English speaker, I'd agree. I focused looks OK, but focussed looks weird to me.
Prioritization:
The 's' versus 'z' debate is perhaps a little more complicated than often presented. There are some words which always were historically spelt with a 'z', but since the interpretation that 'z' is American have started to be spelt with an 's' in English.
In particular the OED (Oxford English Dictionary) tends to favour 'z' spellings for a number of words over the 's' spellings - I think 'nationalization' is a particular example.
When I worked at FB, I felt like I was treated most like a human vs. a work robot at other jobs. Experience is dependent on which org you join, and the hedonic treadmill will always exist in capitalism.. but these articles on their posters are silly.
If you believe soviet style communist dictatorship is the only alternative to the current state of capitalistic exploitation in the West, propaganda already defeated you as a force for change.
Please stop talking like this. You're not in a crusade against a monolithic force. You're raging against a billion individuals playing, generally speaking, within the rules that governments set for them.
You reach for false dichotomies very easily. You may not like what I'm saying but don't ask me to shut up. Why do you immediately denounced me as being in a quixotesque saga? What are you afraid of thinking?
