Lao Tzu - The Art of Not Trying



There are a lot of good thoughts here, especially when so many of us want to do SOMETHING as outrage piles on top of outrage. Since there is nothing particularly productive we can do that will get this bunch out of our government for good, maybe we need to do a little nothing for a while and let them destroy themselves.

No, the "NO KINGS" demo is a good idea, we don't have to remain silent or passive. It''s just that when the cops show up and start shit, we don't have to give them shit back because that only generates news footage for Pox to lie about.

Isn't it surprising that a web search for how to hold others blameless gives results like this:
How to hold people accountable without shame
The right way to hold people accountable
How to hold others accountable without having them hate you
...
Everything except how to hold others blameless.

Great clip.
C'mon people. We can do better.
