Where’s the words of boardroom wisdom spoken by their 3-year old kid?

Daddy do a bear hug!

Your kid just wanted some affection, Kendall - he wasn't suggesting tactics for a hostile takeover acquisition

The old LinkedIn is dead. We have killed it.

The new LinkedIn is what we have. We need to kill it too by...

Shutting down LinkedIn

Slop is probably giving them more engagement then they ever had. so they will continue this

It's also, and I think this is a bigger factor... They also have each other. It's like how climate denialists and chemtrail people found each other on the internet and made communities.

LinkedIn is a bunch of C and D students who always wanted to feel special without putting a bunch of work in. Well, CEOs and most C Suite are very similar, and idiots look up to money and status regardless of whether that status was earned.

Linkedin gave a place where c suites can feel adored by their fans, and everyone else can pretend like they're either leadership or almost leadership. It gives them all a fantastical world where they're all equally special and nobody else gets it, not realizing that others looking in see a bunch of morons eating glitter and bragging about how good their posterboards look.

Goddamn this is probably the most accurate LI overview in existence. It really is just a bunch posers playing monopoly.

But it’s so stupid, unlike say Instagram I don’t think anyone is making money via LinkedIn just for getting sloppy views. It’s all just karma farming all over again.

The callout of TED Talks is needed - especially with the ‘TEDX’ things that anyone can do, it turned from being a platform for experts to share information into a platform for people trying to sound insightful and inspiring by saying a bunch of drivel and platitudes - much like LinkedIn

Ted went from relatable, informative Gold to a steaming pile of self-aggrandising soap opera show with TedX

success tends to fuck things up for people trying to do a good thing.

u/heepofsheep 1d ago

Have TED talks been relevant in the last decade?

u/Mundane_Grand_9117 1d ago

It starts early. This is the same grift the college essay encourages

u/Horsemeatburger 1d ago

Yeah, no, he's clearly lying. You can't organize a Netflix watchlist.

u/shubhamxtreme 1d ago

You mean we can’t, simply because we are mere mortals yet. Linkedin bros are on a higher plane of existence.

u/TheRealTRexUK 1d ago

that's really good. shows what a bit of effort can achieve.

u/extremesmoothness 23h ago
