À propos de #Thomas_Friedman et de son dernier livre. #Lol
How, in an age in which “the fast eat the slow,” has Thomas Friedman not been gobbled up?
The late Alexander Cockburn, reflecting on the work of decorated #New_York_Times foreign affairs columnist and neoliberal warmonger #extraordinaire Thomas Friedman, once observed: “Friedman’s is an industrial, implacable noise, like having a generator running under the next table in a restaurant. The only sensible thing to do is leave.”
But while generators at least serve a rather obvious function, the same can’t usually be said of Friedman, who has just spewed out his latest unnecessarily humongous book Thank You for Being Late: An Optimist’s Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations.
