I’m drawn to blogging about divisive topics, but it would probably be healthier to avoid it. People can be so tribal now that everything is either good or bad. Our views have become extreme caricatures of the truth.

@manton we humans have always been like that. It's a tribal mentality of "us vs then". When people are different, and in this day and age by different I am referring to political leaning - it's either far right or far left and nothing in between is accepted.

@manton I’m guessing it’s less that you have a predisposition for it and more that those are the topics that are out there and materially relevant these days.

@manton if you’re referring to AI discussions…there is a certain small group of people out there, coming from a certain domain name, that seem to love to hound you. I’d tell them to pound sand. The rest of us love the discussions. Rational people can have rational discussions on topics they don’t necessarily agree on.

@jasonekratz Thank you. Not only AI but that is a big part of it.

@manton my trick for avoiding this is that not that many people read my blog 😆
