Everybody knows the old adage “Son, this is gonna hurt me more than it’s gonna you.” Let me explain something to you people who feel the sadistic need to provoke me so that you can talk about my so called “anger issues” or anything else that you think you can find to...

“Constructively criticize” me about. Do I have your “attention” now?😊
When somebody takes a “certain type” of “shot” at “me” no matter how “subtle” you think you are “clever” enough to be, you aren’t just taking a “shot” at “me.” I’m just the one who is responsible for appropriately responding to it and/or appropriately handling it and the way...
in which I handle it can say good things about me or it can say bad things about me. There are certain people who have been on this planet for quite some time now and have “NEVER” been held “accountable” for their actions! Some of them may even be capable of being “arrogant”...
Enough to think that just because something happened maybe 8 or 10 years ago or however long ago and I haven’t mentioned it since and may have even “forgiven” them for it, it must mean that either A)I “forgot about it” or B) they are “delusional” enough to think that I....
Believe that they were justified and I feel as though “I” was the one in the “wrong.”....
If the CEO of a company has a coke head fuckin son who’s driving the company he spent years building into the ground with what to save space we’ll just refer to as his “bull shit,” does the fact that he “loves” his son mean that he isn’t gonna “Fire” his son and does the...
Fact that he has to “fire” his own son mean that it doesn’t “hurt him more than it hurts his son” and does the fact that it “hurts him more than it hurts his own son” mean that the Vice President of the company or any of his employees are gonna hand him a box of tissues....
And lend him their to shoulders to cry on when they look to him as their leader and the man who signs their paychecks???😂 Nobody wants to hear his fuckin crying and nobody give a shit about his fuckin “feelings” in this particular context because his son was fucking things....
Up for the entire company and some of them depend on that company to provide for their own sons who don’t jam millions of fuckin dollars up their noses.
Why? His son “had to go!” That’s why! 😂

I’m not finished with the particular point that I’m trying to illustrate but I have other “business” to tend to and I am “behind schedule!”😊 That being said..

“To be continued.” 😊

How I created content in 2020

A thread...

Back in Aug 2016, I started creating content to share my experiences as an entrepreneur.
Over 3 years I had put out 1,200+ hours of content - posting every week without


Little did I know that something I started almost 4 years back would give my life an entirely new direction.

At the end of 2019, my biggest platform was LinkedIn with ~700K followers.

In Jan 2020, I decided to build a team that would help me with the content.

I ran a month long recruitment drive to hire a team of interns.

It comprised 4 detailed rounds - starting with my loved 20 questions, then an assignment, then a WhatsApp video round and finally F2F.

Through 1,200+ applications, I finally selected 6 profiles, starting March.

I am a firm believer in @peterthiel's one task, one person philosophy
So the team was structured such that everyone was responsible for ONLY one task

1. Content ideas
2. Videography
3. Video editing
4. LinkedIn (+TikTok) distribution
5. FB+IG distribution
6. YouTube distribution
There is some valuable analysis in this report, but on the defense front this report is deeply flawed. There are other sections of value in report but, candidly, I don't think it helps us think through critical question of Taiwan defense issues in clear & well-grounded way. 1/


Normally as it might seem churlish to be so critical, but @cfr is so high-profile & the co-authors so distinguished I think it’s key to be clear. If not, people - including in Beijing - could get the wrong idea & this report could do real harm if influential on defense issues. 2/

BLUF: The defense discussion in this report does not engage at the depth needed to add to this critical debate. Accordingly conclusions in report are ill-founded - & in key parts harmful/misleading, esp that US shldnt be prepared defend Taiwan directly (alongside own efforts). 3/

The root of the problem is that report doesn't engage w the real debate on TWN defense issues or, frankly, the facts as knowable in public. Perhaps the most direct proof of this: The citations. There is nothing in the citations to @DeptofDefense China Military Power Report...4/

Nor to vast majority of leading informed sources on this like Ochmanek, the @RANDCorporation Scorecard, @CNAS, etc. This is esp salient b/c co-authors by their own admission have v little insight into contemporary military issues. & both last served in govt in Bush 43. 5/
