Pointing out hypocrisy is not usually for the benefit of the hypocrite, it’s for the benefit of everyone else.

Comrade, organizing online is fraught in the best of times but I think people are hyper aware of the risks of talking about these things online right now.

Dude the wife and I like talking long bike rides without our phones, the only electronics on us our lights and our motors. Get in some good conversations outside the city limits once it's quiet and we don't have to worry about blocking the tractor that comes by hourly (only traffic on that road) at 10mph, which we can both do without our motors.

Who's stopping you from talking about Solutions?
