Since connecting with and posting a few times at MC's conservative politics blog and responding to MC's posts here, I've been overwhelmed. My inbox is running at ~200 unanswered responses. I can't come close to keeping up with that volume.
This experiment has turned out to be a lot more productive and better than I had expected. I'm surprised. My level of understanding of perceptions of right-wing American reality, reasoning and tactics has gone way up compared to a few weeks ago. The good news is I understand a lot better. The bad news is the mess is worse than I thought.
I need to find allies to align with. Pxy is starting to help me find them. Not sure if that is going to go anywhere, but trying can't hurt.
I'm more convinced than ever that our best shot at democracy and long term well-being lies in pragmatic rationalism and aggressive use of it. I'm trying to learn how to be more aggressive. I need a lot of help, but am not sure about how to go about getting it. Gawd forbid going back to social media.
Maybe writing and posting a pragmatic rationalist politics engagement handbook is a way to train allies. There's not much to it.
Q: Is Germaine off his meds again? Been listening to Pxy too much? Does he need a reality whap?
