no medium is perfect and all have trade offs.

it's harder to lie in person or to mask the sort of person you are.

but it's easier to lie about data and to build rapid mass formation. virtual is great for ideas and for data because everyone can engage with it fully and take time to digest and respond or to fact check.

it's not about "better" so much as "trade offs."

but the two favor different sorts of people. king of the internet is rarely king of the office.
