I'm a boomer and not a social media user, except here. However, this place is like the backyard fence. You know the regulars, shoot the breeze and sometimes it gets heated. Most of us just tell it like we believe.
Then, the Alpa guys go radio un silent, turn on the sonar and start pinging like crazy with talking points and one sided points. They stand out like sore thumbs and immediately everyone radar warning receivers start growling.
You don't need to be a social media expert to see through that.
I'm fine with the Alpa loving regulars, Leine, sink and whoever else. I like their perspective even if I don't always agree with it. However, frankly now, Alpa has severely shot itself in the foot by circling the wagons, immediately scheduling meetings to avoid recall, etc. it's like everything Carl ever called them out on, (which I often thought was over the top) has come true.
These guys gotta go.
