> like no shit people are going to be ...

Yep. I still need to say it. I still need this audience, at least time tiny fraction, to hear it. This "community" specifically is so high on it's own supply that these things should be shouted from the rooftops:

- You're a fallible human and your ideas aren't always good - Disruption isn't always good - Moving fast and breaking things is a great way to leave a path of destruction in your wake and piss off everyone around you, and isn't always good - Change for the sake of change isn't always good

Let's boil that down to: the shit you come up with isn't always good. Or to put it another way, rarely does it seem "should we?" is ever considered alongside "could we?".

Finally, as if it weren't obvious: I am not here for fake internet points.

the populace has been trained to unequivocally reject any thought that goes against the prevailing narrative. they have been lobotomized, removing the capacity to discern shades of grey. so when things are shouted from the rooftops, automatically they considered not to be worth listening to. if you really want to change people's minds it needs to be done gently, and generally on an individual basis. thats all i wanted to suggest ... internet points are relevant because the less you have, the smaller your audience.
