I wasn’t dog whistling - what group am I supposedly trying to garner support for?

This was my intention. The title is misleading imo.

Thanks for your kind words. I am not an idiot or a conspiracy nut.

Sorry for the ambiguity. What I mean to say is that the language this general is using very clearly indicates that the US has plans in place that have been decided on prior to any serious engagement. To call it a “prediction” is a poor choice of words. Thanks for assuming I’m a conspiracy nut you guys. Also, not everyone lives on Lemmy and can respond instantly. Whether you like my comment or not it is not cool to speculate on someone based a one-word statement.

“Predicted”

The only thing I see social doing well is amplifying messages via cheerleaders and providing a channel for servicing the external client.

Yeah, if you look at the backend re: things like Apple blocking tracking data it’s clear marketing can very much exist without a ton of metrics. You just have to be creative with the advertising. It also helps to be solid on the content and placement, ie where people are receptive to messaging.

Oh, lol, yeah. I have been in marketing communications for almost 20 years across tech, finance, and other industries and there is a lot of jargon that’s worthless. I do agree with the author that much of marketing can be shooting in the dark and knowing when to actually do something worthwhile with ad dollars can be hard. Digital marketing requires specialty knowledge most marketers dont have.

Toward my comment or the article?

If you ran it through MS Word or Grammarly you would see it needs some help.

I’m not sure if this comment is sardonic or sarcastic or genuine in tone so I can’t respond.

I certainly hope this person is really in marketing. I would agree that a lot of digital “metrics” are a scam. It’s all in the presentation of said metrics.

However, this article is comprised of poorly-sourced anecdotes and full of buzzwords and conjecture. The grammar also makes me question the validity of the storyteller.

I can’t gate-keep “marketing” but buyer beware on this one.

Edit: hey to all the downvoters - I’d love to know why, specifically, I am wrong?

I defer to you then. Thanks for sharing 🙂

That’s my guess - a coordinated effort to look weak to root out any issues with the clans that run each area. Loyalty check and you get to fuck with the West’s head a bit. If Putin wanted him dead he’d already be dead. There are useful idiots out there and Putin loves to look better than everyone else around him. Reminds me of a former US President …

Because it’s likely theater …

What will you do when that entire thing tips and crushes you under it?

It is hard enough to love yourself without wondering if people secretly think your body is vile

I have been told I have a dad bod and it does not look like Starlord. It does look like Andy Dwyer at his fattest, lol

Phase 1 - Lemmy after dark Phase 2 - ??? Phase 3 - Beans

My poor wife’s eyes glaze over every time I talk about whatever it is I am into at the time, lol. For instance now I can’t shut up about a federated Reddit alternative ;-) She supports my nerd-side and it’s great to have a spouse that is even slightly into whatever I think is cool, but yeah I’m a dork …
