All I can say is, given the prevailing season, there’s a lot to talk about and I have a lot in my mind to discuss and explore and share with you and I hope we stay on the level.

I had been called pretentious, plastic, too good to be true many times in my life. I know how it feels.

Joe says deal with the issues. I’m rather interested in Micha’s notion that Robredo seems “neo-lib” which I judge to mean conventional, seeing the need for income and investment and jobs to better care for the struggling workers. She’s not socialist, but is probably closer to AOC than to Bezos. She’s not degrowth, nor should she be. But I’d imagine she will be a better steward of natural resources than anyone previously. I don’t know what a “non-neo-lib” government is supposed to entail.

I did call her out and ask her to be constructive and she finally was. Just like with see page Juan Luna I watched what was going on for a while and then came out with my viewpoint or question – maybe direct but still respectful. This isn’t what NTF-ELCAC does today. I don’t want to be a tagger or gatekeeper.

I’d blocked her at one point. Don’t know when or why. That would generally mean she was more than irritating. Dogmatism is not criticism.

Actual bullying was what some hard-core Pinks did behind Miyako’s back on Twitter, accusing her of being a closet DDS and all for being critical of VP Leni’s campaign

And she is a bit like me in my beginning here, has to develop listening skills and avoid giving monologues all the time. She might learn, she might not, it’s her choice really.

Haha, I didn’t realize I have this bullying ability until now. […]
