|content=Another technique closer to this I call '''“regulated expression”''', where he has a large stable of themes but promotes/represses or clarifies/obscures a theme from time to time. That’s what I see here. He just clarified &amp; promoted one of his (many) themes for deliberate effect. (2/2)

|content=The Democratic mainstream *slowly* being forced to change course away from divisive “intersectionality” towards civility, comity &amp; empathy. Those who test the wind to see which way it’s blowing have been watching quietly.

The plan *may* be starting to work. Stay tuned. #Winning

|content=Pres. Obama: Democracy demands getting inside "the reality of people who are different than us."

"You can't do it if you insist that those who aren't like you because they're white, or because they're male...that somehow they lack standing to speak on certain matters."

|content=Yeah Eric, I respect you but this is who Obama has always been. It’s the IDW people who weren’t paying attention. Let’s start talking about the psychosis on the right for once.

|content=I voted for Obama twice, so 
I’m somewhat attuned to both his views &amp; modes. His dominant technique is different: he gives a single speech that everyone sees from the particular angle that matters most to him/her. This is what he did on “affirmative action” for example. (1/2)

|content=The big issue is this: nobody knows the rules. Not @jack. Not @vijaya. Not @TwitterSafety.

Because a star chamber has no rules. It uses '''“regulated expression”''' to apply the rules it chooses to whom it wants at times and severities of its own choosing.

Hence the risk: It’s Kafka.

|content=In light of the Time magazine article, it is worth noting what gets people suspended given the coordinated behind the scenes response of Tech CEOs to save us and our democracy.

I believe this account questioned ballot deliveries in Michigan and claimed to have supporting video.

|content=Am I playing with fire here given the size of my account? You bet your ass I am.

Am I doing so by speaking what I simply believe to be true. Absolutely.

This *should* have *zero* risk. I am making an *observation*.

This level of chilling is absurd. What is really going on? 🤔

|content=A time to include, and a time to exclude.

A time for diversity and a time for commonality and interoperability.

A time for transparency to bring sunlight and a time for opacity.

A time for pluralism and a time for leadership.

A time for cancelation and a time for redemption.

|content=A time for institutions and a time for disintermediation.

A time for egalitarianism and a time  to recognize differential contribution.

A time to listen and a time to refrain from listening.

A time for senior leadership &amp; wisdom and a time to remove those who stopped renewing.

|content=A time for authoritative sources and a time for heterodoxy.

A time to welcome strangers and a time for family &amp; old friends.

A time to ridicule &amp; call out and a time for civility and comity.

A time to celebrate technology and a time to put away technology to embrace the soul.

|content=With apologies to Ecclesiastes and Pete Seeger. 

I do not have their gift. Clearly. But we are separating into groups that hear one half of the verse and not the other because what is written in Ecclesiastes is so distant in time from our modern lives that we miss the point.

|content=In a modern context, the verse is about '''“Regulated Expression”''' where response to a situation depends on context. Too many of us hear the first or second half of the above. I think Ken Wilber was right to emphasize integration in such matters.

|content=We would do well to rethink our unwavering beliefs. There is a time to *every* purpose. 

Over my lifetime, we have moved towards mindlessly fighting over permanent positions that lack all contextual awareness, when what should be dividing us is a search for what time we are in.

|content=The good books give lots of guidance that is seemingly contradictory. A main difficulty is in knowing what to apply when. The original paradigm of ''''regulated expression'''' in my opinion.

|content=Isaiah 2:4 says: “They shall beat their swords into ploughshares...nation shall not lift up sword against nation.”

The thing about Ploughshares, and on which Isaiah is mute here, is that they can just as easily be beaten into swords.

And these are by far the most inspiring 'Ploughshares' I have ever seen.

|content=“A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up”
-Ecclesiastices

You need to break empathy to kill. And you need to kill to defend your world.

But you need to also come back. Wars end. Life goes on for the living.

The Jewish people are a life cult. Not a death cult. 

To life.
