I didn't even skim that, I didn't read it at all. From the Guardian? Probably blames the patriarchy or white fellas somewhere further down. A non story by non people, verbiage, fluff, middle-class intellectual horseshit.

i skimmed it for you.

a jab at brexit: "and the deliberately confusing public referendum questions citizens encounter in the voting booth." (the author attempting to rationalise away their loss)

a jab at popularism and trump: "incentivizes a retreat to the most familiar silos of unchecked information, which require and receive no analysis, leaving us susceptible to false information and demagoguery."

but other than that remarkably restrained for a verbiage riddled guardian piece

Same here. If I see a Guardian link, I'll scroll right past.
