It was very important to Adam to include this fun fact.

Fascinating write-up of some of the social media dynamics underpinning the most recent Cracker Barrell dust-up. (H/t @flotisserie.bsky.social for cluing me into @garbageday.email).

“Replacing the institutions that managed our democracy are platforms and, within those platforms, personalities.” And, last year … Trump finally fully embraced the new digital influence machine in a way he never had before.” — @garbageday.email www.garbageday.email/p/you-can-ne...
