The first day of our event, AR in Action, went really well. There were a lot of interesting points raised, touching on technology, ethics, societal norms, and the general meaning of the profound (if gradual) shift from SmartPhones to wearables.
But in the middle of it all, I received a delightful surprise. Apparently some supporter of our Republican President was unhappy with my pointing out the obvious fact that said President is acting like a complete idiot. So I got an insulting would-be comment.
I am somewhat sympathetic, because I understand that the commenter is suffering from confirmation bias, which is only human. After all, after you vote to put somebody into higher office, you feel committed. That can remain true even after your candidate makes a complete idiot of himself, deeply embarrasses his country, and pretty much pees down his leg.
By all means, those of you who are still suffering under the delusion that our President is not a total embarrassment, keep those insulting comments coming. That is how I know that I am standing up for our beautiful country. That is one way I know that I am being a patriot.
