FYI I think itʻs Carey, but I think your post is spot on. We havenʻt found a way to stop whatʻs happening in the world, and yes, weʻre all hopelessly internet connected and Punaweb is certainly not exempt from the toxicity, but one thing we can do is to show aloha to each other when weʻre out and about. Iʻm amazed and heartened when I go into Hilo and strangers still talk story, a smile is stiil returned with a smile and people are generally kind to each other. The other thing we can do is for each of us to individually opt out of the hate speech, personal insults and the bickering. And we can start on Punaweb for that. Some canʻt/wonʻt. Thatʻs on them. Opt out.
Certainty will be the death of us.
