Every time Dalton posts, I see the same cycle: a bunch of likes, “thank you Doc,” and people calling it an update. But let’s be honest — what exactly is the update? If he can take the same themes, rearrange the words, and people still treat it as new information, then it’s not really an update at all. It’s recycled content.
The problem is that this constant praise for recycled posts creates a feedback loop: Dalton learns he doesn’t need to provide filings or specifics, because even broad motivational statements will get applause. That means the bar for what qualifies as an “update” keeps getting lower and lower.
There’s also a community psychology piece here. Many shareholders want to feel reassured, so even vague posts feel comforting. Others join in with likes because everyone else is doing it, or because it feels safer to signal belief than to question the lack of progress. But that dynamic dilutes the meaning of the word update.
At the end of the day, likes don’t equal substance. A true update should contain new, verifiable information: a filing, a contract, a milestone achieved, something concrete. Until we get that, what we’re really seeing are inspirational soundbites, not updates.
So sure, it’s nice that Dalton keeps posting, but let’s not confuse presence with progress. If shareholders keep treating recycled content as updates, we’ll never get the accountability and material disclosure this company owes us.
