It’s funny that the moment we all suddenly got really clear eyed about how capital & power wields trad media, most non boomers dropped Fox and MSNBC en masse… andddd we all shifted straight to algo-feeds and “content creators.” the legacy media issues are real, but new media is just as bad We are not closer to the truth reading our substacks, we just each have our optimized feeds. Everyone has their influencers, their “current thing”. Platforms surface or repress according to their interests. Reporters and influencers fight for attention, streamers scrapping it out in an ever escalating war for reactions Our perception is “alternative media,” but it’s just a new, enormous industry. Highly centralized, too. It feels different though, and we enjoy imaging ourselves as rational. The independent thinkers, blissfully unaware

I think people need to relearn humility. Regardless of your politics accept the possibility that your deepest, most earnestly held belief may be wrong and act accordingly.

A wide breadth of experiences is probably the most beneficial thing anyone can do for their personal development. I lived overseas in culturally alien place for years which gave me a lot of insight into my own culture. I’ve also had several drastic career changes with varying levels of status, prestige and pay. I.e burying anonymous human shit & picking up used needles contrasted with wining and dining clients in Michelin star restaurants and international business travel.
