A few thoughts on navigating the incoming wave of online noise, the trick to actually being heard, and why I’m spending extra time out on the trails lately.
I try to stay out of politics here too (mostly do a good job of it). At one point in the 90s, I thought of myself as kind of a “social libertarian”, lol mostly due the influence of George Carlin 😎
Thanks James. I'm with you on the not always successful part ... Although I have much easier time just scrolling past and avoiding any temptation here on Substack than I did back when I was on Facebook every day.
I'm not against people having (even strong) opinions, or even about them from time to time (even if I don't agree with them) sharing those opinions.
I just wanted to break it to the people who I may ostensibly agree with, but whose feeds are filled with nothing but political rants: "sorry, I muted you a long time ago." (and I'm probably not the only one).
I'm here to escape all the nonsense.
I will neither complain about nor cheer any politics here.
Or encourage anyone to.
Or try to sway anyone's opinions.
Unfortunately the only people I align with politically are libertarians and they're all retarded.
