I feel as though I have been so disillusioned by social media nowadays -in all of its varieties- because I think it has really brain rotted so many people. This is coming from someone who grew up with social media starting out over twenty years ago and love using social media. I am just sad seeing how other people live on their phone so much and it's clear by how they choose to talk with other people. The only good coming from social media nowadays is to fight people. It's so lame.

So I found a tactic that's working in my YouTube comments- thought I'd share.

If someone complains that a software I recommended is "woke", I ask them "what does that mean? Can you say more about that?"

They never say more. They delete their comment instead.

My tactic is to make them say what they mean. They won't.

Because they're cowards.

I grew up being told, 'The older you get, the more conservative you become.'

I'm discovering that the older I get, the more I want our society to be tolerant, charitable, kind, and peaceful, and to ensure that everyone has what they need to survive and thrive.

I really think that people who haven’t been poor should not give money or frugality advice to poor people. The problem with poor people isn’t money management or knowledge, it’s the insufficiency of money. This goes for anyone who wants to help people on food stamps navigate this situation. People on food stamps are already experts in navigating food and money with a shortage of both.
