    Despite #misinformation and toxicity, #SocialMedia and the #internet remove gatekeepers and simplify publishing.

    It’s modern-day #pamphleteering.

    You can disagree, but you’d be wrong.

  3. #American #history #LessonsLearned:

    On December 14 and 27, 1763, a group of thugs known as the Paxton Boys—similar to ICE—murdered twenty Conestoga tribes people around Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

    Outraged, #BenjaminFranklin went #pamphleteering in response.

    From the angry essay:

    "If an Indian injures me, does it follow that I may revenge that Injury on all Indians? It is well known that Indians are of different Tribes, Nations and Languages, as well as the White People.

  7. Blogs are modern-day #pamphleteering

    Some people with a bias for institutional authority and deference to elite power condescend to the idea of blogs or citizen #journalism. My hypothesis: part of the reason is the word ‘blog’ sounds funny and people feel self-conscious saying it out loud. #American exceptionalism is the ability to memory-hole first-principles, history, and the meaning of words better than the rest than the rest of the world.

  9. “Mitch McConnell, a man willing to get elected to the Senate to destroy it and set up judicial tyranny ten times worse than that of King George III.”

    This is a line worthy of #American #pamphleteering #history

    I thought of Twitter as digital #pamphleteering for a while, but maybe that is the phase we’re about to enter…?

    The historian J. Ebbeller describes the period 200 to 600 CE as antiquity's "golden age of letter writing" (Barchiesi, 468) as the Roman elite embraced the sentiment of Cicero's comment in one of his own letters: "what could be more pleasing to me than to write to you or to read your letters when I am unable to speak with you in person" (Letter to His Friends, 12.30.1)

  15. Hypothetically, if one were to harbor ambitions of becoming a prolific writer of absurdisms, short stories, screenplays, poems, travelogues, and maybe novels, someday, what are the best #commonplacebook tools to support such an endeavor and what's the best self-hosting storage solutions?

  17. I learned of the term #commonplace book reading Tom Ricks’ immensely educational book #FirstPrinciples.

    As part of my #introduction, I’d like to continuing with my messy personal experimental process of #digital #pamphleteering, gathering shared data, information, knowledge, and wisdom to build a sense of #community across time and space. 🇺🇸#fediverse #federated #networks #republicanism #scottishenlightenment #history
