.@offerup Your user experience blows chunks and it’s your fault. You have 1000s of devices listed without THE MOST BASIC info such as “model number, size, etc.” If you just urged sellers to photograph the item name-plates, you’d quadruple your sales. #PreventableLameness Image
@offerup Our increasingly uneducated society can rarely think though the most basic things anymore. Even when it’s in their own interests. As a service provider, it’s your obligation to think for them if it helps them AND you. Everyone wins.
@offerup It is no exaggeration to say that I have wasted dozens of hours trying to contact users and get them to report things such as “model? Screen size? Storage? CPU?” And what makes it all the worse is you have zillions of listings that are months or YEARS out of date.
@offerup Please do better. If a user hasn’t refreshed a listing every 90 days, DELETE IT. #preventableLameness
@offerup You bought out LetGo, and I assumed things would get better. In fact, they have gotten much worse. if you don’t improve, someone will enter your space and do the job right. I’m already urging two companies to look at it.

I’ve been speaking to a lot of 20 somethings all week. 13 different convos from the gym, to volunteers, to Office Depot. Cnclusion? You people who swear this generation is so sharp must be defensive as parents because these kids are woefully uninformed, uncurious,
disinterested, and utterly lost in a social media morass of runaway mediocrity. You may have raised exceptions, or think you have, but this country is generating a LOT of hapless dopes.
But go ahead and say it’s just my generation crapping on the one before. Except that I crap on my own a a lot. It allowed this to happen. But it has happened, and denying it is a really bad idea. We need to fix it, not pretend it never happened. It happened. We’re dumb.

When you talk to most of your friends who were once Republicans, few of them are overt racists or greedy pricks. They were people raised with a set of beliefs that only time and life experience altered. No one wants a lifetime of beliefs to be upended by craven
opportunists. I think it’s good strategy to acknowledge their right to have had sincere beliefs, however wrong, and stoke their resentment over having their only party affiliation hijacked by unabashed zealots with no interest in disguising who they are.
Only15 years ago, it was common to hear both Democrats and Republicans say “I’m socially liberal but fiscally conservative.” Whether how they were raised or informed by their lives, such fence straddlers found homes in both parties. And it’s hard to leave home.

It felt @alivelshi was almost going to call them #FakeRepublicans this morning, during one of his typical righteous rants. I hope he does. Just think of the questions & narratives that those two simple words enable? What other two words do the same (across the aisle)?
@AliVelshi Think about it. There’s a reason why @radiofreetom, @timodc @jrubinblogger and so many others bailed from the GOP. They may have partly come to realize that their party always contained these insane racist actors, but they were at the fringe (in their minds,
@AliVelshi @RadioFreeTom @Timodc @JRubinBlogger anyway). It was the sudden surge of success by the Trumpist zealots who seized the Republican label and party that made staying in the party untenable for them. They weren’t driven out by factional ideologues. They were driven out by ruthless, power-hungry

Here’s an idea. What if we kept it simple and branded the cosplay GOP as “Fake Republicans: cynical politicians with no track record, who hijacked your party and think its members are fools. Here’s a list of who they are and what they haven’t done. Have you been fooled?”
Talking about fascism , racism, justice or fairness is just a waste of time. Most of them don’t know what those things are, and the rest don’t care. We need to find a simple message that resonates. So why not just tell them the truth? With massive ad campaigns?
Trump cultists aside, most don’t like to be taken for suckers. Millions of Republicans know nothing about these rabble who have hijacked their party. Why not campaign on exposing these “Fake Republicans.” Ok, real ones ain’t great, but we can keep quiet about that.

I swear, the only person who seems to really understand just what is happening to this country is a former Republican who had a major hand in making it happen: @stuartpstevens. I was skeptical of him for awhile. Not anymore. He knows we’re at a pivotal moment in …
@stuartpstevens history. He was just on with @chrislhayes and pulled no punches. My only criticism is he’s not setting his hair on fire on national TV and asking why in the hell people aren’t lining up to stop this anti-democracy movement. Where in the hell is America’s spine?
@stuartpstevens @chrislhayes How many more clues to you need to see that McCarthy and McConnell are full-on committed to this anti-democracy project, and if we are fucking crazy enough to let these craven pricks come back to power, it’s game over. They don’t even pretend to care about elections …

I just wish I could understand why American Liberals are so complacent with what is happening all around them. @FoxNews is actively deconstructing our democracy, and the GOP is far more extreme than Nazis ever were before Hitler ascended in 1933. We MUST stop it here.
@FoxNews I’m all for wokeness, but where these Republicans are heading may end of worse then slavery and the holocaust combined. The world has never see this kind of super-charged extremism seize a country in such a short time. WHY ISN’T YOUR HAIR ON FIRE? I just don’t get it.
@FoxNews We’re all complicit with helping the media monetize this crisis by watching each new obscenity unfold, while taking no collective action against MOST of it. And by the time we realize just how bad things are, Republicans will retake power thought purely corrupt means.
