623: It’s About Human Connection

They all are now explicitly supporting the Republican Party to, in my view, to selfishly benefit from the wealth transfer and deregulatory aspects. And the price they paid to get those gains is to completely sell their souls and their morals out by therefore also supporting the division, cruelty, and violence that Republicans require as a smokescreen and a source of power.

623: It’s About Human Connection

This is going to be something we're going to be fighting and angered and hurt by and possibly damaged by from any of us for a long time now. And I don't know how to fix it. There is no quick and easy fix. We can't just turn all of our avatars blue or put stickers on our cars and expect anything to change. What I suggest that we do is practice the opposite of their playbook.

623: It’s About Human Connection

So what's the opposite of division, cruelty, and violence? Generosity, acceptance, love, and protection. And I think we need to embody those in what we preach, what we do, and as tech people, what we build. You know, right now, women, anybody who's not white, LGBTQ people, trans and non-binary people are all under attack by these monsters.

So you can keep stacking up those blocks and staying really cranked up and mad and scared and just feeling powerless. You can feel that every single day if you want to pay attention to all this stuff. I suggest reconsidering that. If you are not a politics wonk and if you are not a politics enthusiast, reconsider how much of your mental health you want to give these monsters.
