I think part of that is that we produce product whose cost for distribution is pretty much sunk in AT&T's past; write once, run anywhere, right? WAY different in commodities markets, which you acknowledge; a harder market, but equally if not more important to everyday living.
Your conundrum that you are apparently trying to “use twitter to deradicalize well-intentioned people” to quote your twitter profile. That suggests a certain radical confidence in your own unradical reasonableness. I think such a posture is both impossible and doomed today.

That's a common sentiment among the radicalized; they believe themselves in a moment of crises in which the tenants of civil society need to be abandoned (&can be abandoned w/o personal consequence). They then inevitably attempt to coerce others into their absolutist morality.

Nope. Not at all what I meant. Based on our conversation, seems to me you’re much more of a radical than I am. Your posture feels largely like projection. I wouldn’t be so sure you’re not the one in need of deradicalization. Luckily for you I don’t see it as my job.
