Meaning, via the internet. Not ironic at all.
This super-meta first-world thing seems to be increasingly common these days. Everyone all critical that too much time absorbed in the virtual world is compromising the actual human experince. For one, of course it is. But for two, what we're feeling as a society or whatever--this need to be unplugged, to go on some extreme hibernation from the shit that has been responsible for human progress and infinite possibilty--it's a bit self-righteous, no? The internet is just like anything else, in the sense that the general medium is at the point where it's increasingly being abused and exploited, and people are using it in extreme ways that is probably unhealthy. I stare at a screen probably around 12 hours I day, so I hate the internet. Absolutely despise it. What it's become is in so many ways, damn unfortunate. But would I ever want to live in a world without it?
So again. Just take a second and consider how this dude is spreading his message, which is the only reason why you've been exposed to it in the first place.
