Managing Up isn't about pleasing a boss, that's a small game.
At senior levels, it's about shaping the system: reducing cognitive load, influencing power, and keeping decisions flowing cleanly.
Most leaders never make this shift and it caps their impact.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

I just think Trump understands Mamdani is not someone he wants to tangle with. Too smart, too charismatic, too New York, too straightforward, too young. Easier targets elsewhere, like everyone who works for him and most of Congress. (1/2)

this isn't 1 problem caused by 1 platform/piece of technology. it's many overlapping problems caused by a bunch of systems that were optimized for scale and/or built & rolled out without any real care for how they'd be used and abused. one can only conclude this is the desired use for all this tech
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
