Case in point: this discussion.

If you missed my point so completely to think we are saying the same thing there isn’t much left to say.

If you go out to a protest and aren’t networking then you’re doing it wrong.

That’s the problem though isn’t it? It’s very easy to lose people by appealing to their confirmation biases and playing up fear responses. The same methodology doesn’t work to pull them out of it because you’re going up stream, and there are literal decades of propaganda that need to be addressed when you’re talking about alternatives.

If you’re this impassioned about making a difference you efforts would be much better spent getting out and joining a organization that focuses on building community networks. You’re just screaming into the void on Facebook.

Go touch grass. No one is changing hearts through internet discourse. You have to actually talk to people.
