Jeff Bezos, Antoine Bertrand and me

Since I got back from vacation, my Instagram wire has been thrilled. Consequently, The algorithm, obviously, does not know me … Therefore, or knows me too much. Furthermore, In a loop. Therefore, he bombes me with all moves Blue Ivy’s dance, Beyoncé’s daughter, whom her mother propels on stage during her world tour. However, My interest in the Queen being limited. Moreover, so I am surprised to see her teenager swaying repeatedly on my thread in sexy cowgirl outfits.

The patent of Mark Zuckerberg also pushes me the contents of another billionaire. Furthermore, his colleague Jeff Bezos, one of the three largest jeff bezos, antoine bertrand me world fortunes, who married his Venice on Friday in Venice darling Lauren Sánchez. Furthermore, I like Venice, this is my favorite destination, but I trip a little less on Bezos. In addition, Why did he devil the algorithm decided to club me from all the unworthy moments of this sumptuous marriage?

And finally. Nevertheless, more locally, the algorithm showed me, more briefly anyway, the flamboyant Patriotic Speech by Antoine Bertrand at the show of the National Day in Montreal.

If. Nevertheless, unfortunately, I was only fueling with social networks with regard to the march of the world, I would live in a strange space-time where the breeding words of Antoine Bertrand collate with the frenzied wiggles of Beyoncé Junior, to go to die on the lagoon transformed into a holiday colony for hyper rich. For example,

Exit of Donald Trump’s most recent clashes towards Canada, wars and tensions, planetary heat waves and disturbing fires.

But since I come back from traveling. Furthermore, I am too relaxed to persist with an algorithm, I have softly capitulated and decided that my reading of the news this week would be that of Meta, who knows me so well, and who notes the quintessence of the air of time to flour it in passive-aggressive mode, and really colorful and instigimable.

Venice, therefore. Or Bezos and his court in Venice.

The algorithm is not wrong. We are, and I am, fascinated by the lifestyle of ultra -ties. We all aspire to better, financially. Everything, in the lifestyle of billionaires, shouts ostentatious happiness, limitless power, insolent freedom. In every way, ultra -ties are the absolute jeff bezos, antoine bertrand me success model of our society. Fans of classes defectors. we secretly dream of a supersonic social leap, where private jets and luxurious yachts would be our daily lot.

That’s good, they were legion in Venice last weekend for the marriage of the owner of Amazon.

Celebrities of the business world. finance, influence and all-hollywood landed at stars-taxis, rushed into the 5-star pallazzi, revealing the peaky outfits straight from the recent collections of the greatest designers. All shamelessly exposed their inaccessible lifestyle to which several dreams.

The Venetians were divided between the humiliation of seeing their sublime city deprived for the good pleasure of an oligarch. the fact that the magnate has extended a few million to help local associations which fight against the effects of global warming and from surpourization which threaten the serinissime.

Ultrariches always have the last word. Money buys everything: space, information, even manifestations. The immense banner inviting Bezos to pay his taxes. deployed Piazza San Marco, seemed very derisory in the middle of this luxury orgy and the privatization of one of the jewels of humanity.

Instagram therefore concluded that despite my anger as a daughter of Venetian. a latent fascination for the megarichesian lived to me. Instagram also took the opportunity to flourish with “content” on the new series to the glory of the Quebec billionaire Luc Poirier. another race class defector, as if his dozens of Ferrari had not already said everything …

What is annoying, with these stories of billionaires, is that social networks offer them as models. There is nothing wrong with aspiring more.

But we jeff bezos, antoine bertrand me must also question the economic model of which they are the ambassadors. a model which promotes the most howling inequalities, the iniquity, the privilege of polluting with impunity, and which perpetuates an increasingly unbearable system.

Let’s not be a splash.

As I said, I was also flooded, for 48 hours, extracts from the patriotic speech of Antoine Bertrand¹. Splendid, unifying, inspiring word. This heroic. poetic text, this shortpoint of snippets of Quebec songs of all eras, of all styles, in French, in Joual, in Innu, was a masterful success. Delivered by one of our best actors, shiny eyes, it was lifting from the ground.

The crowd gathered at Maisonneuve park was not mistaken. It was a killing of beauty, a jewel that could be connected to other facts. As in this light survey which shows that support for sovereignty has jumped a generation. now speaks to a considerable number of young Quebecers^⁠2. The death of Serge Fiori also highlighted a pangenerational fervor that was beautiful to see last week.

There is really everything on social networks. We often have the impression that silo worlds juxtapose there without ever meeting, that speeches do not fertilize each other.

However, at the end of June, my algorithm that became mad pushed me to delinquency. Too much exhibition at Bezos jeff bezos, antoine bertrand me leaps has nourished my reflection and my critical sense. Antoine’s words gave me Élan and Hope.

We can cunning with algorithms, however tyrannical they may be, muscling our discernment and working our ability to marvel.

But with regard to Blue Ivy’s dances. I still ask myself questions about the meaning of the digital message that they could send me well …
