Did anyone read David Brooks piece in The Atlantic?

13. DU comments on threads like these make me wonder sometimes

So many 'blame the messenger and ignore the message' comments

I get it, it was long article, and maybe a bit too cerebral for breakfast? can we make it a tik-toc video or something?

I think its intellectually dishonest to trash it because of the byline

To the point: a couple of days ago there was neat article about robotics in China how folks were surprised about about the rise of dark factories. Well many months ago Thomas Friedman wrote an in depth fascinating article in the NYTimes about the subject posted here.
Because it was he, and the NYT was out of favor at the time for some reason, the writer and paper were roundly mocked while the subject matter was world-changing, and the textual information was not addressed in any of the comments

It was a great article and bookmarked, thanks or posting
