Hi Richard,
thank's for the hint to the interview. An interesting read. Really
enjoyed it.
May I ask a question? Christine quotes you as saying that the idea of a
free expression with digital media is "wilful blindness toward the other
– much less positive – features of life on the West Coast: racism,
poverty, and environmental degradation." Quite a contrast to what
Christian Fuchs suggested at the end of his Critical Introduction to
Social Media, were he reports activities like founding cooperative
companies. Do you think this could me interpreted as an expression of an
idea of a better future? Or is this just a hopeless relic of times when
people were still thinking in Europe?
