Even though this is ostensibly a tech-dominated platform at present there are quite a few people I have encountered on Farcaster who are knowledgeable about politics, history, and even literature and philosophy. I’m genuinely impressed and can often get a good sense of others knowledge because of the right-sized message limits that encourage complex expression without sacrificing concision. 

One thing I love about the internet is that if you use it right it’s actually like a crowdsourcing tool for having millions of mini-teachers giving lessons around the clock. You could probably create a decent magazine or other publication drawing from tech people who have bases of knowledge in other fields, particularly the humanities. Any worthwhile intellectual project for public consumption is usually a team effort on some level with everyone bringing a different set of strengths.

Well said. There’s a lot of great conversations to be had here, you just have to sort through a lot of lols.

The beauty is that you can choose where you want to spend time. Geopolitics, literature and history channels are less volumous but do lead to some great conversations.

Crypto. Geopolitics. Music. Travel. Tech.

A slow flow is fine for me tbh, only if the conversation doesn’t stall or hit a dead end.
Slow moving exchange is actually my fav because you can take your time to digest and respond thoughtfully.

They are worthy channels my favourite but the flow can be slow…! With that say with the upcoming election I expect or hope for me conversation.
