Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

‘MOST PEOPLE JUST DON’T THINK,’ SAYS SELF-HELP GURU JESSE ELDER AS HE FILMED HIMSELF WALKING GARBERVILLE’S MAIN STREET YESTERDAY

Texas man, Jesse Elder, self-described “Millionaire Mentor, an Improv Philosopher, former MMA fighter turned entrepreneur, and also the author of The Upgraded Life”, rolled through Garberville yesterday, walking and filming himself giving a monologue on critical thinking.
Elder, whose website says “his popular Mind Vitamin videos, online courses, events, and private coaching [teach] others how to create their own success and fulfillment, reclaim their personal freedom, and master their reality,” argues in the video that confusion is key to critical thinking as it allows one to ask the right questions.
With the empty streets of the tiny Southern Humboldt town lit by sunset, the self-help guru explained to viewers that he is traveling through on his way towards Seattle.  Elder is apparently unworried about catching COVID-19. He says he’s “wearing his mask on the inside in the form of a wolverine-like immune system.”
He adds that if anyone is concerned about “catching some sort of thing” from him as he reads “the look of fear on their face,” he alters his trajectory to stay more than six feet away from them.
Video  was filmed in Garberville by Elder and posted on Facebook. Unfortunately, they may make it difficult for some to view.
