Writing this edition really highlighted for me what a pivotal year 2021 has been in tech. New CEOs at Amazon, ByteDance, and Twitter; new brand for Facebook; new product directions for the entire industry (crypto and metaverse) https://t.co/sCi0DjbWeB https://t.co/eHKqH3eUJL — PolitiTweet.org

@A_Webster what do you like more, Clint’s refusal to team up with his biggest fan for no reason other than “Black Widow died,” or the way they resolve their conflicts with close-quarters archery — PolitiTweet.org

@dancow those are … actually just solutions to a pervasive culture of harassment and abuse. anyway fun chat, i’m off to work — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@dancow I think ‘walk out over pervasive culture of sexual harassment and abuse’ is much stronger, yes. — PolitiTweet.org

@gaberivera also each day some VC will leave their current job to start a new crypto VC fund, like a Web3 advent calendar — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@dancow For the reasons I already elaborated. But if you want ‘toxic’ to be a generic word meaning ‘bad,’ have at it. It’s clear I am losing this argument! The flip side is that ‘toxic’ will have lost all meaning by this time next year and we’ll be using something else — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@jaspar @dancow right. and the problem is that many people are now saying that their workplaces are ‘toxic’ because it was bad or sucky in a typical way. — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@dancow sure. the point is that too many publications trade on the most severe connotation of the word to attract reader attention — part of a broader trend of catastrophizing that is undermining credibility in the media. my incentive is to increase reader trust. so that’s the complaint. — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@Austin_Federa never — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

@dancow No, it conjures a sense that people are literally being poisoned at work, when in fact the behavior described ranges from “general malaise” to sexual harassment. And that destroys trust with readers — PolitiTweet.org
