I'm no judge of how profound my statements are, but I can assure you that I put a great deal of thought into everything I post.

We no longer search for the meaning in any situation, but attempt to bring a pre-determined meaning to every situation we are in.

Perhaps we are living our own Tower of Babel?

It’s as if we’ve lost (or never had) the means to come to terms with the fact that we truly can’t understand, with pristine resolution, the thoughts and intentions of others even if they are generous with their language. I think the frustration stems from developments in search.

Not understanding in perfect resolution doesn't excuse the refusal to attempt understanding at all. So many come into conversations/debates assuming malice that understanding is the last thing to be tried.

A good friend of mine is Irish, and exemplifies the cultural value that Americans might call "getting a rise" out of someone. In other words, he likes to say provocative shit that even he does not believe just to stir everyone out of their torpor. Would hate to see this vanish.

I don't think trolling is going anywhere, especially when trolling has become so extravagantly successful. When you can convince the media that the OK sign is a dog whistle for white supremacy, for example, you have reached "peak troll."

Well remember, the media model is merely to put out whatever they can to get and keep your attention until the next ad. It's a race to the bottom.
