Do what you can to challenge fear, anger, and hate (a.k.a. critical thinking).
They are the tools of the power hungry and wealth hoarders. Rage bait news articles, religious extremism, labeling the “others” (race, religion, sex, national origin, etc.) are how those tools are applied. They are applied to get voters to vote against their own self-interest or even conduct extreme acts like suicide bombings.
Feels grim stated like that as the hate machines and their incentives are already in place and controlled by the worst of us.
Using these tools is also an easy trap to fall into unknowingly. I’m passionate about privacy enabling technologies. I’ve slipped into fear mongering when on my soap box without realizing it until later upon reflection.
