And where it is not a class war, don’t know…
Nice if people know they have support..that’s enough. And support that at some point is reflected in the material world.
I don’t know..sometimes if you are silent, people don’t know what you are thinking, but probably with a large enough number of people (not the ghastly people..anyone who meets the old qualification of random human) they are probably on your side with anything bad.
I think the web is depressing a lot (influencers and such)..and people have to feel stuff..you can’t scold people into eschewing anything nor working hard and being healthy etc. But with support people would get there.
To the extent that I am one data point meaning anything, it’s probably good that I at least scraped by these past 14.5 years myself. And in spite of the tech oligarchy’s interference with public policy/science policy etc almost certainly.
I certainly feel way better than I did before in some ways. But it has to be reflected in the material world to count. So I have to go and finish work. But I wish sometimes I could cheer up people facing the PTSD of this last year...this loathesome attack on all public and non profit institutions (billionaire funded aren’t the same even if the people doing the work may be cool) is outrageous and makes sense.
It does suck. And it can feel like there are a lot of loud proclamations of this and that, but no real support. But there’s support probably. Not online but somewhere. It’s not a lot, but it’s something ;-/.
I felt like that 14 years ago. Put on the spot by these accelerating systems and today I feel ready finally to at least try to take on more serious work. Ditching the suck fest.
I don’t think it’s that with lots of people, people are stupid or helpless..like those creeps want it portrayed. It’s hard to care sometimes when it feels like such a put up job to keep eyes away from material realities.
It’s why I follow a type of left that helped me.
