Tom Livanos: I state at the outset that it is 4-5 years since we first crossed paths on here. I reciprocate your writings on my wall (more than once) with an entry here. Yours have been... shall we say... 'less than pleasant' - at least to me.
From what was said in #Australia Chat over the weekend, I see that others also think you take a heavy handed approach when chatting with someone i.e. it is not just me who thinks so. You do not come on often any more but when you do, sheesh...
Okay so I am a serious kinda guy. Reconnecting economics to nature is, well to me (and I'm not the only one), a serious topic. You, and others on Wireclub, wish to take that and use it for entertainment purposes... what may one say... "it is one way to go". Ya got me? There are other approaches one may take. I do not mean to be prescriptive here so I merely invite you to think about it. Why think about it? Well, take me out of it for a moment...
..."Zinging" a person in relation to what that person is passionate about... again... it is 'less than pleasant'. Passionate people continue to be people. A passionate person, okay myself included, has feelings; *any* person is not like some lump of rock. The old classic: treat others as you wish to be treated.
I remain human ..............
Oh, if you're thinking that your aggressiveness is making my passion shine brighter... [sigh]... leave me to shine my own inner light. You focus on doing the same on your end. There is already an overflow of aggressiveness in this world. A lot, if not all of it, is supposedly for a good cause or something that is necessary or what have you.
How about we, as people, start creating a world that is kinder, more gentle, more humane -- I know which one I prefer to live in and I see no reason why I would be different to you or anyone else in this regard.
Aggression is all 'well-and-good' for the aggressor but 'not so crash hot' when one is on the receiving end of it. No amount of 'logic' gets a person around another's lived experience... or that of one's own experiences.
Okay that's all.
As always, I appreciate your time and attention. I wish you all the best i.e. person to person. It goes without saying that 'the conversation always continues'...
