You’re too stupid to read or even hold a thought in your head anymore so I don’t know why I bother but this is important: here’s something fun about Big Data:
Imagine a globe with a heat map showing how everyone is feeling about whatever you want to know about. Instant demographic research willfully updated by a populace compelled to share their thoughts openly about everything. Great part is you don’t have to mandate this, the compulsion is all internal, yay peer pressure. Bad reviews here go red, good reviews there go blue. Target your products where they’re wanted. Focus your advertising where it’s successful.
Great, right? Nearly perfected by the time of infomercials, but the Internet??
Maybe you see where this is going already, but imagine a globe with the same deal but the data research is targeted towards your political machinations. Red vs Blue, already a familiar scheme. Call it an “Aura Map” and see what happens when political science and data science and legacy marketing mentalities combine.
Learn to manipulate the patterns - amplify the hate 5x and watch the aura turn red, rotate in the feel-good comfort puppies for soothing blues, break down demographic vs demographic and push every button and wedge every issue and watch the waves flow cash into the coffers and pitchforks at your rallies.
Had they asked an engineer they’d have learned about rogue wave theory.
