Excellent writeup on politics getting in the way of good public infrastructure. A second in this series on the NBN would be interesting.

If I were Europe I would drop the US in place for Ukraine as a NATO partner in a heartbeat. Even better, why not just replace NATO with a world-wide democratic middle power alliance?

Russians are back using the ferry in the Kerch Strait connecting Russia with the occupied Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea. Imagine the firework if only one drone visits this place. Coordinates are probably here: 45°20'40.71"N 36°40'55.71"E

Just don’t let that disappointment turn you into someone who loses sight of other people’s humanity completely, that’s the line I’m trying very hard not to cross.

I am not good at any of those things yet. I struggle with them badly at all times, but my goal is not perfection. If you feel overwhelmed by society, exhausted by propaganda, alienated by tribalism, or disappointed in public discourse, I understand.

But it is not just children who learn from watching. We gain intellectual trust by demonstrating these same things to others.

They learn it by watching: how we handle disagreement, whether we stay curious, whether we remain open to correction, whether we can disagree without dehumanising people, and whether we can remain hopeful without becoming naive.

I also realised something else: If I genuinely care about the future my children inherit, then I cannot allow myself to become permanently consumed by contempt for humanity. Because children do not learn critical thinking from lectures alone.

But that is not the whole story of humanity. There are still thoughtful people. Curious people. Compassionate people. People trying quietly to do good work. People raising good children. People trying to understand reality honestly. They are often just quieter than the outrage machine.

And yes, those observations ARE probably correct. The media absolutely manipulates attention and emotion. Tribalism is real. Anti-intellectualism is real. Propaganda is real. People do often become emotionally reactive instead of thoughtful.

You stop seeing flawed people and you start dehumanising.  You stop seeing ignorance and start seeing enemies. You stop trying to understand and start expecting disappointment everywhere. That path eventually isolates you emotionally, even if some of your observations about society are correct.

And contempt feels good for a while because it protects you from disappointment. It lets you feel separate from the chaos. It tells you: “I have clarity. Everyone else is stupid.” But if you stay in that emotional state too long, it starts poisoning your ability to see other human beings properly.

And when you care deeply about society, truth, future generations, or intellectual honesty, it can genuinely start to feel emotionally suffocating. But there is a danger here. The danger is that disappointment slowly hardens into contempt.

I think many people like me, feel psychologically trapped between endless propaganda, tribal politics, social media outrage, anti-intellectualism, performative certainty, and a culture that often rewards confidence over truth.

I wrote this after realising for the first time in my life I was indulging in feelings of hatred towards others. But after reflecting on it more deeply, I realised something important: A lot of what I am feeling is not actually hatred. It is grief, frustration, helplessness, and exhaustion.

Hey, if you feel like this, please keep reading. I want to tell you something I needed to hear myself. I originally wrote the above as a raw emotional vent. I dumped it out without filtering it because I was exhausted, angry, disappointed, and honestly feeling alienated in this post-truth society.

And what really drives me insane is that many of these people are actively supporting systems, narratives, and political movements that are not only bad for society, but bad for themselves and their own children, and they will aggressively attack anyone who tries to point that out.

That’s the part I struggle with most. Not ignorance. Everyone is ignorant about something, it’s the arrogance. The certainty. The refusal to engage honestly. The group humiliation. The mockery of expertise. The tribal mentality where being loud matters more than being right.

And yet these same people will passionately defend positions they barely understand, repeat talking points they never investigated, and shut down anyone who tries to bring actual evidence or expertise into the conversation. Not because they want truth, but because they want to “own” you.

They absorb narratives with absolute confidence, yet the moment you try to discuss nuance, evidence, or complexity, suddenly politics becomes taboo.

I have receded away from engaging with people in my community. I don’t know if it’s the lifestyle I lead or just where I live, but I have stopped trying to interact beyond small pleasantries and basic manners. I don’t care to go deeper, i’ve been burnt too many times, it doesn’t feel worth it.

Have no fear, Republicans will bail you out at some point with a huge chunk of taxpayer money to pay you for not being able to sell your products because of their policies. Then you can post on social media that you’re voting for them because you are against socialism.
