yunxiaoli@sh.itjust.works 1 month agoHere’s an introduction to Thomas Edison, theconversation.com/thomas-edison-visionary-geniu…
It has actual sources, and isn’t a 4.5 hour sponsored video from whatever estate is trying to do PR for the name Edison.

Uh, the tiny amount of info in that article is also in the video I linked - that Edison wasn’t a single-minded visionary, but rather a ridiculously hard worker who worked collectively with his employees to create inventions scientifically.
The video also goes into detail about how he crafted a public persona to make sure his shop continued to have access to funding to keep up his inventing.
Nothing in that article impugns Edison’s name whatsoever, so, combined with your posting history, I think we’re done here.

Doesn’t that the site get a lot of flak though?
