Outrage is the opposite of zen, it is disturbing and annoying mostly. I seek mostly balance and balancing distorted opinions of others, if possible, by trying to re-frame the situation and give alternative ideas how processes and systems function. Harmony is a fine goal.

Interesting. Here's an alternative take: Maybe tribalism isn't the problem... the problem is that we're not actually living in _tribes_ anymore, and tribalism in a large society doesn't work so well? Dunbar's number, and all that...
