Don, both you and Whit missed basically every message contained in Dr. McGilchrist’s work. I don’t know why you’re even here. Both of you are self-deluded, paranoid bullies. It’s time you both grow up and find a new hobby other than picking fights with strangers on social media. Really, there’s more to life. Trust me.
I’m respectfully requesting that you both refrain from commenting on my posts. I have no interest in hearing what either of you think, your straw-manning, or your ad hominem. This is where we part company.

It’s not too late to just log into your old Facebook profile and delete the posts. You can even denounce the election meddling that you then espoused. We’re forgiving people here.

Whit, I have to at least thank you for the laugh. Even by your standards, I’m utterly floored that you’d pull the Russian disinformation card here. Well played, sir. God bless you and everyone around you.

Thank you, Zak. I appreciate that. I did the same with my Kindle and got some things in the ballpark, but I thought there was something more explicit stating that the RH really is most active when in nature. Haven’t found it yet, though.

Then you should find out who was impersonating you on Facebook back in 2016.
What I’m doing is respectfully pointing out inconsistencies that aren’t true to the spirit of TMAHE or TMWT. When I tried to do that, my views
What are you doing?

Whit,
You might not remember, but you posted all over social media back in 2016 about novel ways to rig the electoral college in order to deny Trump the White House. You are exactly what you accuse your brother of. So, maybe practice what you preach, and try listening to your brother sincerely and trying to get why he thinks the way he does. You might learn something.
If you sincerely care so much about the environment, you owe it to yourself to watch Planet of the Humans. All you’re doing to help the environment so far is repeating corporate talking points from some of the richest and most well connected corporations on the planet. You’ve been co-opted and you don’t even realize it.

Very interesting concept. Have you tried it or seen it done?
-
Hey Don. I’m right here. I actually started this discussion, so you can address me directly like an adult. You might try not condescending to everyone you write to. Most people don’t appreciate that and it doesn’t reflect well on your character. Take care.

Don, I have to say that every comment of yours that I’ve had the misfortune of reading has demonstrated the very sentiment and approach you claim to oppose. You also seem to have trouble reading plain English, and ascribe all sorts of baseless faults and motives to people who merely disagree with you politely. I’m sorry that the message of TMAHE didn’t get through to you (I myself decided to read it twice, so maybe a second read would do you some good), and that you’ve chosen to use this forum to spread your pseudo-scientific, partisan screed, but some of us are just trying to have a dialogue about the book and the reality we see out there. I’m sorry you’re not interested in participating in good faith. Good day.

Got it. Well, he isn’t in the documentary, so you can watch it and not break into hives. Whit, did you attend Evergreen State by chance?
-
The original post, I believe is what you’re looking for. Focus on that and offer what you have. Don’t let the irrelevant replies distract and divide and I’ll try to do the same.

I’m more concerned with the hundreds of millions for whom the basic necessities of life will become too expensive and unreliable if climate change extremists and the largest corporations backing them get their way. I recommend watching Planet of the Humans, produced by well known right-winger Michael Moore: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk11vI-7czE&t=6s

I’m glad to hear you had a peaceful interaction with your brother and can give him some credit on a few of the issues you ultimately still disagree on. That’s progress.
I don’t know what “Trumpism” means and I don’t carry water for any politician, so I have no interest in defending one or attacking the other, particularly in this venue.
To the extent this group will be helpful, it will be in learning to empathize with people with whom we vehemently disagree with, not attempting to diagnose psychological disorders, question allegiances, or assign intellectual deficiencies in order to explain differences of opinion.

Hi Don. I respectfully request that we keep comments here germane to the actual discussion proposed, rather than bringing in fragments of other discussions. Thanks for your cooperation.

Hi Don. I see you misunderstood my reply in another discussion and thought it was a reply to you. No worries, mistakes happen. That’s not this discussion, though. Onward.
