Engage or Enrage. It is likely that we have family members or friends that we differ with greatly when it comes to politics, healthcare, etc. I am no different. When the inevitable hot topic arises, do you recommend flight or fight, engage or enrage? How do you respond when this occurs?

Would love y'all's feedback on podcasts: here's number #1 . Part of our plan for growing is for me to go on a series of increasingly popular podcasts. I feel great about doing relateful podcasts, but feel like I still need a lot of practice for UpTrust. here's the first one:
"Solving Social Media with Jordan Myska Allen" (i don't get to pick the titles)
- Youtube: https://youtu.be/i2MSY1K9wTc
- Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/solving-social-media-with-jordan-myska-allen/id1714481300?i=1000692941322
- Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6XFLyfHXj7S0OnwdweFfab
I would love any kind of feedback. What works for you? What doesn't? Any specific phrases stick out as good/bad? What's the most boring? Most interesting? Surprising? etc
Great job, Jordan! You ooze charisma. Loved: The point about X and FB having an unconscious incentive structure, and there being no bad guys is brilliant because it shifts energy away from finger-pointing that can be put toward making things better.... I want a new archetype for libertarian well-being activist. Maybe it’s an old archetype and some German philosophers have been talking abt it for centuries…
My climbing gym is called Crux; the original location is moving because the rent is too high, and the landlord won’t work with the climbing gym…
The gym is in a part of the city that used be considered south, but now is centralish. I think all of austin loses when we lose places like this. We lose our character and our well being.
I want the landlord to be the libertarian well-being activist. My mom does this for the Relateful Studio. I didn’t ask and no one makes her; hardly anyone knows and she doesn’t get any tax benefits; we still pay her a good bit each month but it’s under market. She’s doing exactly what she wants to be doing with her money and investments: supporting her son’s vision.
The climbing gym landlord isn’t a bad guy, probably. Maybe he has loads of debt; maybe he has a wound from childhood that he’s trying to heal, but
Is the climbing gym landlord doing exactly what he wants?I want endosymbiosis activists; where what they do is good for the whole and them, and they sacrifice neither. I want this to be a meme, that people strive to be. I want them to brag about it in their hearts, and try to remain undiscovered. I once heard that in Judaism the best mitzvahs are the ones no one knows you did.
This more general question is really important to me. I had a very negative experience just going with the "I trust you," vibe for years and then ending up with a feeling of shock and betrayal....
