Social media is dictating countries, and companies governance Or, existing power structures are ecstatic to have yet another fake enemy to assign blame to for their own failures.

Mystified means bewildered or perplexed. Are these two feelings incompatible with art?

Is a tweet a public forum, or someone's back yard? I can kick people off of my back yard if I feel like it.
