A quotation from Hannah Arendt
The disturbing factor in the success of totalitarianism is rather the true selflessness of its adherents: it may be understandable that a Nazi or Bolshevik will not be shaken in his conviction by crimes against people who do not belong to the movement or are even hostile to it; but the amazing fact is that neither is he likely to waver when the monster begins to devour its own children, and not even if he becomes a victim of persecution himself, if he is framed and condemned, if he is purged from the party and sent to a forced-labor or concentration camp. On the contrary, to the wonder of the whole civilized world, he may even be willing to help in his own prosecution and frame his own death sentence if only his status as a member of the movement is not touched.
Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
Origins of Totalitarianism, Part 3, ch. 10 “A Classless Society,” sec. 1 (1951)More about this quote: wist.info/arendt-hannah/42025/

Now the bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self (rudimentary as his may be). And so at the cost of intensity, he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he does comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire. The bourgeois is consequently by nature a creature of weak impulses; anxious, fearful of giving himself away and easy to rule. Therefore, he has substituted majority for power, law for force, and the polling booth for responsibility.
[Der Bürger nun schätzt nichts höher als das Ich (ein nur rudimentär entwickeltes Ich allerdings). Auf Kosten der Intensität also erreicht er Erhaltung und Sicherheit, statt Gottbesessenheit erntet er Gewissensruhe, statt Lust Behagen, statt Freiheit Bequemlichkeit, statt tödlicher Glut eine angenehme Temperatur. Der Bürger ist deshalb seinem Wesen nach ein Geschöpf von schwachem Lebensantrieb, ängstlich, jede Preisgabe seiner selbst fürchtend, leicht zu regieren. Er hat darum an Stelle der Macht die Majorität gesetzt, an Stelle der Gewalt das Gesetz, an Stelle der Verantwortung das Abstimmungsverfahren.]Herman Hesse (1877-1962) German-born Swiss poet, novelist, painter

Sometimes we reduce communication with the people we love, not because we hate them but because they make us feel like we are nothing to them.

CW: USpol, helplessness and circle of control
I'm having to really consciously do the 'not my garden, not my weeds' thing with the US right now, and focus on the people close to me who need me and the ones who are giving me light and strength.
It feels... irresponsible, somehow, to look away and not engage as much, but also there are other things going on in the world, and some of those concern and impact me personally a lot more, so I have to remind myself, it's OK (and even important) to give my energy to those

"... my little trouble of mind and the shortness of the days making me to lie a little longer than I used to do, but I must make it up by sitting up longer of nights."
Exactly how I feel, buddy, exactly my experience. But good work can get done at night, can't it? And those hours that you keep for yourself, they aren't wasted. Neither is your diary, Stay cool.

A quotation from Judith Martin
Q. Is it ever acceptable to be rude?
A. No. Now, that doesn’t mean you have to let people walk all over you. Etiquette does not render you defenseless. If it did; even I wouldn’t subscribe to it. But rudeness in retaliation for rudeness just doubles the amount of rudeness in the world.Judith Martin (b. 1938) American author, journalist, etiquette expert [a.k.a. Miss Manners]

#Remorse Is Holding You Back
https://www.buddhistdoor.net/features/remorse-is-holding-you-back/#Regret often stems from a desire to escape future punishment or #negative consequences. It is rooted in #selfpreservation; an instinctive reaction to the fear of #repercussions that might arise from our #past actions. Remorse centers on acknowledging the hurtful impact that our actions may have had on others. It is a more profound, empathetic response that arises from a place of compassion and understanding.

Think "Liberals" who preach 'Go-along-to-get-along'
Think "Good people" who stay on places like X for the engagement
Think "Friends" and others who say 'Don't rock the boat'
Folks who would've led the Nazis straight to the attic to save their own skin--or worse, profit from it--are not to be trusted lightly. Be careful out there.

Nolan asks,
"Odd, is it not, that a man whose primary concern is global equality would need a subterranean apocalypse shelter designed to seal him off from all of the (equal) people outside who would be, presumably, burning or starving or being eaten by the zombies?"
Perhaps "equality" means something different to the Zuckerbergs and Dorseys and Thiels and Musks of the world than it does to us ordinary non-tech-bro folks?

He's constructing a 1,400-acre compound of mansions, treehouses, and tunnels, a $270m project whose crown jewel is a 5,000-sq-ft underground shelter with “its own energy and food supplies” and “what appears to be a blast-resistant door.”
-
As Hamilton Nolan notes, in 2015, Mark Zuckerberg wrote a treacly public letter to his daughter, announcing that he'd be giving away his enormous wealth to promote equality.
But in the real world, what is Zuckerberg actually doing? He's spent almost a decade buying land on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, and is building a survival shelter for himself and his family there.
