As I deal with more and more people, I'm finding my patience to be shrinking. It's tough to engage on the topics I do, know the harm of the ideas I challenge, yet remember that I'm generally a nice person.

It's a tight needle to thread. There are times where being mean is a necessity, where being angry is a necessity, but maybe I can be more patient with those I know engage reasonably, and those who may sincerely not know enough on an esoteric topic.

Trolls are a problem, often brought on by the topics I engage in. I don't really mute or block, but maybe that's something I need to reconsider. To make room for intense but decent engagement, maybe I need to get rid of trolls. It's a challenge though.

It's tough, I'm just thinking out loud. Maybe all I can do is try to be nicer to some people. Even some of those I frequently strongly disagree with I can be nicer to. I don't worship civility, but I am who I know myself to be, and he's a nice guy.

I like this quote from Toni Morrison " the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving you do.."
