Spot and discard!
1. identify distractions (news, entertainement, debates, values, campaigns, renewables, transition)
2. identify the issues that require addressing (nationalism, sexual violence, extractivism, degrowth, activism)
3. urgently avoid fueling distractions
4. do not acquiesce on people fueling distractions.
"We’re debating […] dead moral questions, and for the same reason we always do: because that debate allows us to ignore the ones that might lead us to a different place than the celebration of our own liberal righteousness."
Fredrik deBoer, 2015, https://ianaxelanderson.wordpress.com/2015/01/09/fredrik-deboer-on-debating-dead-moral-questions/
"Let humanity perish rather than the principle! This has been the motto of utopians and fanatics throughout the ages. Socialism, interpreted in this way, has become a religion […] which in the nineteenth century is the least revolutionary of all."
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, 1851, in "Idée générale de la Révolution au XIXe siècle"
There are two effective ways of participating in a discussion topic: #groups and #hashtags.
For example, choose your <topic> and type <topic> in the search box at the top of your screen. Then:
- "Profiles": spot one ending in "@a.gup.pe" then on the right push "Follow";
- "Hashtags": spot an item and then in the top right-hand corner "Follow the hashtag".
You may enter a peculiar discussion below, if it piques you:
