Navigating this time requires shifting into an alternate mode of consciousness. Not, it isn't mystical. It isn't ommmmmmm. What it IS, is control.
Simplify. Is this post MAGA?
Yes: absorb it.
No: ignore it. Don't engage; the shills get brownie points for that. It doesn't matter how you engage. Yell at them, criticize them, debate them, it's still engagement.
I have been as guilty as anybody of engaging and that's why I'm changing my focus to staying on track.
It is not easy. But it is doable. We tend to shine the brightest when we demand more from ourselves. Not in the form of "dammit you stupid fuck why don't you straighten up!" But rather in the form of "what do I love, what do I care about, is this helping that end."
Yes: absorb it. No: ignore it.
You cannot and will not make the shills go away. If you demand a pure environment to operate in before you operate at all, you have already lost. You have to be able to swim in the eyeball-deep shit that this board has been overrun with (BO and others have no control over who comes in here) and pick out the goodies. Leave the rest. There isn't time to mess with it.
You will only become as demoralized as your focus calls for. You cannot eliminate what you don't want. It can't happen. You have to isolate what you do. Build on that, create with that. It's the only choice there is.
