       For a period of time in 2013, the Times reported this year, a full half of YouTube traffic was “bots masquerading as people,” a portion so high that employees feared an inflection point after which YouTube’s systems for detecting fraudulent traffic would begin to regard bot traffic as real and human traffic as fake. They called this hypothetical event “the Inversion.”http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/12/how-much-of-the-internet-is-fake.html

       As time goes on I become increasingly convinced that an understanding of narrative and mythology, and the ability to navigate the grand narratives of other humans outside the internet itself, is most important. Over and over again, it doesn't matter what happened. It matters how people see the world. Navigating this fact is a survival skill.
