Reality is 70% of Americans do not hold a passport. Then, of those who do, most have traveled abroad, not lived there. Then, of those who travel abroad and have lived in a few states, let's say, 5 - which is only 10% of the overall number of states we have...do you see where I'm going with? The, "Average," experience is now personalized. Algorithms on Google, Netflix and Facebook or Amazon are about as, "Personal," as some technical people I know get. Then there's a big, huge disconnect between reality and what we do for a living, because of where we are...I had to lecture somebody in our industry where the VC money comes from recently. Either it's their age (youngster, lol) or unwillingness to wake up and smell the hummus, I don't know. Two cops were murdered by a guy claiming, "Revenge," for all the black men who we've SEEN get slaughtered on youtube. It's revolting and I'm hopeful that, one day, the concept of, "Freedom," and, "Justice," will give us all a shot at a better society. Besides, I read too many comic books growing up with the X-men in them to let, "Hydra," win. |
