Please help my research methods students collect data exploring how mindfulness affects attitudes. They only have a few more days to collect and it would be awesome if this got the boosts to help them.

WIST Quotations

A quotation from Fletcher Knebel

The trouble is that democracy works only when a good majority of citizens are willing to give thought and time and effort to their government.

Fletcher Knebel (1911-1993) American author
Seven Days in May, “Tuesday Afternoon” [Lyman] (1962) [with Charles W. Bailey II]

Attendance versus participation. There are more chances than ever to attend a conference, but all of them require participation if you expect them to work.

@bmdv Ein freies und offenes Internet mit den #Techbros und der #Trump Administration ist eine Illusion. Die Frage müsste lauten: wie bewahren wir trotz der #Oligarchie ein freies Internet?

Want Change? Work Together 🔁

You not doing #friendships = war...

" #War is inversely proportional to your lack of friendship-making. " #FreeSchool

⭐ TLDR 1; Not doing more #friendships = #war eventually.

Not all your fault for #bombs obviously but not obviously is actually your distance and lack of #participation meanwhile which helps it all or lets it happen...

⭐ You think working and paying taxes helps anything. DON'T BE SO FUCKING NAIVE.

HAVE to say that.

So how #friendly are you online (people worry / are scared of their own shadow) but pay unknown people, banks, states to do unknown things (err, fund wars or internal division) so it's all so distant already and you are part of that.

⭐ TLDR 2; YOU ARE TO BLAME IF NOT MAKING FRIENDS ON #FEDIVERSE

Irresponsibility starts when your life thinks or wants to only look after your own family and work for 💣big bad $tates💣 - getting nearly nowhere that way - even going backwards / paying the wrong people all your life.

It's all based on war ... supermarkets, taxes for each transaction... so it's time to start fix that... even slowly with friendship.

Things to help you guilt but not to shirk responsibility:

☑️ It's not even this war but previous wars. So not all on you
- BUT start #friendships now anyway...

☑️ It's not all your fault for being born into it today
- BUT you know what your real mission is - not just making money but #friendship, listening, healing everything and everyone you can.

Not doing the friendships = war eventually. You are a small example or the larger being.

You might not feel it's you dropping bombs but think of dead zombie lonely people and inactive / unworking / unused people (where's the #weaving of cocreation?) - that is almost exactly the same mirror extreme which leads / fuels war.

============
SUMMARY
============

So my message is make friends not war - not even keep neutral distance from everyone...

Make in-roads or check people's profile and send a messages or even a template message out there. Copy and paste is ok.

Start with me or just more online and work your way offline in a healthy way (not just because you talk to people in business or to buy or sell you something).

Make #friends.
Said with love as #FreeSchool -

A bit more serious about friendship every day...

About capture of government, economy, energy 🧶

‘The resumption and failure of efforts to socialize the German coal industry [in 1919] marked the end of any fundamental attempt to alter the distribution of economic power in Germany. […] It illustrated how social democrats became constrained by their own commitments to productivity and the general welfare—ultimately to the detriment of the "community". […]
‘Public control of Europe's key industry faltered in France and Germany because in a time of critical #fuel shortage big inductry made economical survival appear to ride upon its own independence.’
– Charles S. Maier in "Recasting Bourgeois Europe: Stabilization in France, Germany and Italy in the Decade After World War I", published in 1975, pp 194 & 195

One day, participant-driven and participation-rich formats will become the norm for events. Until then, remember that words are not enough.

“Any sense of control over the tech deployed by predatory corporations or oppressive governments is a carefully crafted illusion. And once a technology is necessary for #participation in #society rejection is no longer an option. We’re being herded into a digital cage…The real conflict isn’t between machines and #humans It’s between those who say yes to a man-machine merger and those who say no." (#JoeAllen)

“UK has kindly decided not to accept the refugees it helped to create”

by Laura And Normal Island News on Substack

@UKLabour

“The British government has decided it does not want to accept Palestinian refugees, but it’s quite happy to supply Israel with the weapons that create them. I mean it’s not reasonable for us to take responsibility for the consequences of our actions…”
