Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, writes:
"Thom the World poet is an old mate of mine from way back in my history. Even pre-dating Voiceprint, when I was running "Otter Songs" and Thom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth and Mother Gong are well known and highly regarded. It just felt right to include a daily poem from Thom on our Gonzo blog and when I approached him to do so, he replied within seconds!!! Thom is a great talent and just wants to spread poetry, light and positive energy across the globe. If we at Gonzo can help him do that - why not?"
CONTENT MODERATION ON WEB PLATFORMS
Conspiracy Theories about elections.Online harassment
directed at gays,transgendering ,LGBTQ&A citizens.
Censorship of Libraries and school curricula.Revisionist Theories
being promoted as "historical facts".Scapegoating and victim blaming.
You can buy your own social media platform(TRUTH SOCIAL)
You can be an "Internet influencer"to communicate dubious inaccuracies.
You can,as a member of Government,preach socially divisive policies
You can,as a Corporation,purchase advertising to influence consumers
You can,as a Think Tank member ,use studies and statistics falsely
There is little appeal or redress against emotionally manipulative messaging
Even GOOGLE and META ask for some form of Government regulation
In 2023,influence of clergy,nobility and commoners is less than media advocacy
We are The Fifth Estate-seeking accountability-on every level.
Balancing our First Amendment against the "shock and awe"of propaganda.
Survival of polis/democracy/community relies on Freedom of Speech,Belief,Assembly..
Before we speak of the Second Amendment-how about we empower-the First?
