Imagine if, for a decade, Google left the world’s largest social network to fester, allowing racial slurs, sexist abuse and any and all forms of bigotry to stand without moderation or even the slightest serious community management, all the while vigorously enforcing policies against marketing, spam and copyright infringement, making clear that nothing is there without its conscious assent. What a world that would be.
“What a What the Fuck World” (with apologies to Louis Armstrong)
I see screeds of grief, red rages too
I see them lash at me and you
And I think to myself what a what the fuck world
I see crimes of rue and clods of hate
The bright blasted day, the dark scary night
And I think to myself what a what the fuck world
The cholers of the brain cells so petty and so vile
Are also on the faces of people getting riled
I see fiends breaking hands saying how do you feel
They’re really saying I love evil
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They’ll suffer more than I’ll never know
And I think to myself what a what the fuck world
Yes I think to myself what a what the fuck world
