@21540_Shannon @21540J I agree, but how can we measure that it’s exactly beneficial for debate and generating a difference? Feels that a lot of tweets and posting on social media lead to no significance contributions (Slacktivism).!

@21540_Leslie @21540_marion My dads doctor friend sent me it 😂

@21540_Becky Which I particularly prefer, since we only acknowledge birthdays, it feels much more powerful and meaningful when your culture when it comes to celebrating is only limited to one type of event celebration

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Becky Williams does have a good point, and I believe his perspective of culture is one of many, however accurate. My parents are South African, and we tend to not celebrate anything, besides always acknowledging birthdays

@21540Kelsey I know their are more insightful topics to unravel about publish houses, however imagine being a celebrity, being intoxicated in public, arrested then millions of people know, not justifying alcohol however, everyone’s human and make mistakes. Should they be limited?

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Kelsey Publishing houses can shine light on such great literature pieces, stories, and research findings. However I recently thought of air pain celebrities have with publishing houses invading their private lives. Our publishing houses ever limited to their info they can publish?

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Ruth Bottom line, it creates just another form of communication, social platforms is an easy scapegoat to projecting your opinion, and with ease. The public sphere definitely highlights this topic, however Slacktivism should also be highlighted.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Richard Not particularly an “aha” moment, but moments where bias opinions occurring based on one source and Slacktivism being the reality of my generation of promoting their issues and stances.

@21540Chase At the proposal stage, how much is expected to know and mention about the sources you are going to be using?

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Alejandro Completely Agree with you Alejandro, well said.

Wk5 continues … A. McKee, ’. Q from p.29, their is no particular simple answer for these questions, but I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts! would you need 1.”to have your culture included in the public sphere”? 2. Is it as important as food and shelter?

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@20541_Mary Great Example highlighted Mary! Rural Areas appear to be largely disconnected. I can't blame them, though! Wonder if an alternative method of social platforms or information should be mandatory to reach every individual within a given province.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Kathryn Love your perspective and insightful comment. Would you consider that the public sphere should always recognize the marginalized individuals in the community? Even if they oppose traditional democracy?

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Emma You most certainly are! I enjoy Asian cuisine and Asian architecture over western (just a personal preference). Have you found any significant cultural differences where you'd want the western culture to appreciate/recognize more? pg 22 Cultural Difference: facts. McKee, A.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Ben Thank you for understanding 😀

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Ben abstract example of my thought is describe through an artist as Bansky that does a strong depiction of the entertainment/consumer industry in conjunction with the Vietnam napalm girl, combining art is extremely thought provoking and brings different thought/audiences together.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540_Ben Both streams of politics/cont media and pop culture generate high volumes of traction and attention to different audiences, intertwining them just creates a link between these sources to generate a stronger following between different individuals that follow only 1 or 2 forms.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Kelley @21540_Emma I personally feel that your brand(presence) online will eventually influence your decisions. I have a friendship with a strong influencer that is being paid substantially well by a gambling sponsors, which he is making a great living off of, however fuelling future addictions.

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Chase Confidence is key

[21540Michael @21540Michael]

@21540Kelley @21540_Emma Pandemic also created the opportunity for particular mobile apps to boom aka “skip the dishes” being a prominent one for people not particularly wanting to leave their homes due to fear of exposure.
