      You mean the dude who’s gunning for the Democratic presidential nomination and the other guy who’s busy creating a Twitter alternative? They pretty much can affect public opinions, so people should at least be aware of the potential implications.

        Agreed. It’s less about how much I care about his opinion, and more so regarding his influence.

        Bystander effect / not caring about things outside our immediate views or perceived sphere of influence can be a dangerous path to trod.

        But, you know, uh, that’s just like my opinion, man.

        Talking more about the use of only initals. had to look him up. People only have as much influence as society will listen to them. And personally I don’t give a shit about either of these guys. Just don’t vote for him
