Want Change? W🔁rk T🔁gether☑<p>It seems it largely:</p><p> 🔴 we can't just team up / invest in each other... <br> 🔴 not even on Fediverse who seems aligned and stand for a lot... </p><p>perhaps that above is more a technical thing more than people thing (Mastodon as software, not for actually pushing people together more nicely / helping actively itself.</p><p>That's the short version above.</p><p>================<br>The longer points below:<br>================<br>Yes - People need time with this 'togetherness' thing just as 'humanity' itself... (it's like if we can do that it doesn't matter what level people are - like dojo we help each other up and see more purely from the interaction observed and copy better)</p><p>I get that online isn't easy (and often think fuck only 25years if it!) but is there anything else can I do for you? It's the finding of that answer we solve everything as-we-go or ad-hoc with whoever is passing by (and passing by more often which is the incremental factor to this or any <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/movement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>movement</span></a> / <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/progress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>progress</span></a> / <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/political" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>political</span></a> thing / <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/anything" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>anything</span></a>)</p><p>PSYCHOLOGY WEAKENING?<br>On a serious note I think people are getting ill deeply / psychologically. Where it's even hard to speak.<br>Psychosomatic things means disturbances in which emotional maladjustment are almost physically stopping people moving (forward or anywhere)...</p><p>The <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/answer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>answer</span></a> I see is only to get it all out and break through it together as partners (just accepting it all and dealing with it, to actually solve it, not just covering up or ignoring symptoms). </p><p>It feels like the more you try, the more people are feeling something which shows something is there living even if it's not ideal at the very beginning - I after wil be fine,.. better communication - otherwise it would be impossible to separate feeling itself any other way and say "RIGHT let's just deal with it as much as we can in 20mins!"</p><p>I don't want to conclude people are a complete flop or dud but seems so...</p><p>==========================<br>Anyway give your opinion and any guesses about these thigns...<br>==========================</p><p>1 ➡️ why like-minded people might be exactly the people most skeptical?</p><p> (skilled people can be skeptical about everything which is fair)</p><p>2 ➡️ Why people won't team up with those similar-minded randomly?<br> (maybe feel threatened or competitive I guess) or can't go deeper in testing me / people to increment something - but if can't trust from the get go, then how to increase trust?</p><p>3 ➡️ why people might not reply or even block me, so even a short or long message doesn't work <br>(seems technically better people but still dead fish socially ?)</p><p>4 ➡️ why he internet is full of pseudonyms and avatars but still today people are feeling something about accounts without name? (seems really similar to passport control where it's name and number or you're a suspect). By nature of internet it's not for everyone to be spreading all their details (especially if anti-system) and social media provides someone's profile to answer a lot of things so why is name so important or why are people happier when I fake it instead of nickname / pseudo-name on mailing lists (admins asked me to do that). Is it all that "fake" is better cover for real life and accepting people's existence? </p><p>FINAL NOTE<br>These things deliberately I know are challenging and 'advanced' - some will just genuinely not remember or lose messages and yes 100 thigns so it could be that = but many seem just not ready for 2-way communication ... and more one-way posting.<br>Even veterans in the game haven't got <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/communications" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>communications</span></a> down well and are not sucking talent / contributions or involving <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/participation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>participation</span></a> which after years you'd think they'd perfected by now... </p><p>So maybe this is my work to do but it start with you being able to increment more happier / trusting way instead of going backwards... </p><p>Feel free to reply and contact me. <br>Communications seems the core of everything else.</p>
