A bunch of the biggest meme accounts on Instagram just shared posts that claim to be sponsored by @MikeBloomberg
...
ok i’m done
(sorry)
It’s not an entirely new approach for the Bloomberg campaign. Reminder that this tweet still exists:
From @TaylorLorenz: nytimes.com/2020/02/13/sty…
Memers are already using the DM format to troll @MikeBloomberg. (The “parkour” one is also—thankfully—parody.)
Bloomberg reportedly approached @FATJEW, who has 11M followers, but he refused:

“I grew up in New York City so I can tell you firsthand, Bloomberg is a colossal shitbag. From the subjugation of minorities through stop and frisk policies to his hardline anti-marijuana stance...”

A few days ago I noticed Nathan Larson’s campaign page shared an IP address with pedophile sites. Today @AndyBCampbell and I called him — it was worse than we thought. huffingtonpost.com/entry/nathan-l…
Just a few of his comments that didn't make it into the piece. There were a lot to choose from. @AndyBCampbell
In response to our article about his admitted pedophilia and rape, Nathan Larson is being celebrated on incel networks @AndyBCampbell

Here is the FULL BACKSTORY on how Bloomberg's massive meme campaign came together nytimes.com/2020/02/13/sty…
The Bloomberg campaign is working with Meme 2020, a new company formed by some of the people behind a group of meme accounts with a collective 60 million followers nytimes.com/2020/02/13/sty…
Mick Purzycki, CEO of Jerry Media, is the lead strategist for Meme 2020. George Resch, a director of influencer marketing at Brandfire and founder of the Tank Sinatra meme page, serves as Meme 2020’s primary liaison with the meme community. nytimes.com/2020/02/13/sty…

📣 New Podcast! "Episode 807 | Bloomberg's Racist, Classist Past | What Happened To Pete? | Moderates for Bernie" on @Spreaker #biden_ad #bloomberg #notmeus #wallstreetpete spreaker.com/user/thebenjam…
Audio of @MikeBloomberg’s 2015 @AspenInstitute speech where he explains that “you can just Xerox (copy)” the description of male, minorities 16-25 and hand to cops.

Bloomberg had video of speech blocked.

Perhaps because of the problematic explanation he gives for #StopAndFrisk
Bloomberg requested the video not be released.

Perhaps because of his explanation for #stopandfrisk, admitting that all the cops are sent to minority neighborhoods and, “yes we’re arresting minorities for marijuana” but “that’s where the crime is,”

It's all about his ego. He want's to buy the election. If he enters it is proof the Democrats are comfortable with the current selection of candidates. #Bloomberg #Election2020 #VoteRedToSaveAmerica
He wants to buy the election. The thing about Bloomberg is he will run and then dictate how we should live our lives. He is also subject switch parties and become an independent.
Let's see how long it will take before he is hit with all sorts of #Metoo issues surrounding his company. 123...

TR gündemi çok yoğun. Bu yoğunlukta geniş perspektiften bakıp, BÜYÜK resmi görmek çok zorlaştı. Eski bir asker ve siyaset bilimcisi olarak #BOP-#15Temmuz ve #Suriye konularını bağlantılı analiz edeceğim. Önyargıları kenara bırakıp sonuna kadar okursanız, vicdan sahipleri
#Trump
analizlerimde bana hak verecektir. BOP, #ABD’deki Neo-conlarca ortaya atılmıştır ve #OrtaDoğu’daki devletleri demokratikleştirme/liberalleştirme projesidir. -DİPNOT:Neo-con’lar bölgede #Kürt Devleti kurulması ve #İsrail’in vaad edilmiş topraklara erişeceğini düşünmektedir.-
Komplo teorisi kısımlarını geçiyorum.
ABD veya İng yi homojen/yekpare bir aktör olarak değerlendirenler, analiz konusunda sınıfta kalır. #ABD’de başkana azil soruşturması açılmış, İng’de #Brexit nedeniyle iki #başbakan istifa etmiş, yani ülkelerinde çok ciddi bir mücadele var.

Since July I've written 47 posts analyzing Sidewalk Labs' plans for Toronto, with my final post (barring some new twist) coming on Friday. So it's an appropriate time for some reflections.

I'm not sure that Torontonians realize the extent to which other countries are following, often in disbelief, the ongoing #Quayside debacle (which is what it is by any objective measure).
Over the past yr I've made several presentations in Europe to smart-city and internet scholars re Quayside. To a person they expressed disbelief that any of this, from the shoddy RFP to the Potemkin consultations to playing fast and loose with data definitions, is even happening.

1/ This is a tweetstorm of the major milestones & inventions in the history of information technology. From the best book I've found on the subject, Glut: Mastering Information Through the Ages by Alex Wright. Affiliate link: amzn.to/2qy1THY
2/ There's two major dualities that Wright identifies weaving through this history: between hierarchies & networks, each one disrupting and then giving rise to the other; and oral vs written culture, each one setting the stage for innovations in the other
3/ Invention#1: Symbolic thought. Seems to have arisen in humans about 45k years ago, during period of rapid climate change. One theory says that scarce resources required humans to form tighter groups for cooperation & competition. Symbolic thought arose for social dynamics
