    I have never cared for human nature. It’s tedious at best and often ghastly. We should all concern ourselves much more with human nurture.

    To put it plainly, we should not be letting corporations do research on how to manipulate our most base instincts on social media. That would have been a moderate solution a century ago. Now we would need a more radical approach, such as outlawing most forms of advertising content and social media manipulation. And even raising the topic probably makes me sound insane.
