Yes.

I clearly have a different view of the severity and urgency of the situation we are in but we only get out of it by cultivating tolerance and understanding within ourselves.

If we want to get rid of hate it’s best not to give it a home in ourselves.

Yes, most are hypercritical of “the other team” &, yes, a select few are hypocritical of “their team,” but not on Bluesky, where the Left incessantly criticizes, complains (& someone else also described as “whines”) about every action/inaction.

It’s exhausting.

It is an excellent window into the hypercritical culture we live in where the only person good enough to vote for, because of over-judging every action of others, is yourself.

Because you’re not blindly zoomed in so far you can’t see the forest.

People are so focused on small details (the trees) that they miss the bigger picture (the forest.)

Especially of criticisms.

True.

No actual source attributed food price increases effectively

Some #s

Supply‑chain disruptions 40–60% of “above‑trend” increase

Wage & gas costs 20–40%

Farm‑level (grain, fertilizer, energy, disease effects) 15–30%

Net Proft was 1% of lower #s in ‘19, 3% of higher #s in ‘20 & 1.6% ‘23.
