Big brother never bothered me much, except for one or two
   questionable posts I had to ask Google to delete from 1992 and
   they did. My last time without Internet culture was 1998 and I
   was on the CB radio before that, talking to random strangers in
   the area. I think I was last socially isolated at 11 years old
   back in 1983 when I finally got my first computer and was
   teaching myself BASIC.* I didn't get my first modem 'til a few
   years later, but having the computer to "talk to" (and able to
   whip up some basic AI to talk back at me) was a great reliever
   of school isolation. But once I got online, it was over.* I was
   hooked.* 27 years and counting and it never gets old. Will info
   replace money? Well, info can EQUATE to money but that requires
   information to be kept secret and released slowly and the person
   releasing it slowly gets paid money. But as much as I dream, I
   don't know if money will go away 'til we fix a lot of shit in
   the world.* I have hope though.* I'll be dead but maybe a few
   hundred years down the line.* Mebbe :) I'm glad this showed up
   on my stream here.* If you have an activists' fire in you, run
   with it, whatever it's about.* The issue you touch on is a big
   one; related to the victim-culture that's been growing in in
   popularity for a long time. Mind you, I'm anti-bullying.*
   There's rarely a good excuse to be an asshole when you realize
   you hurt someone.* [when it's genuine - there's a lot of
   fake-hurt-for-a-cause out there too; probably more fake hurt and
   fake stories about "cousin who committed suicide over the same
   thing" they pull out of their butts.* Yet, SOMETIMES it's true.*
   Gotta be discerning.* But -* - At the same time, joke's a joke
   and it needs room for expression.
