You get to pick which problems you want to work on, just don't pretend you can't work on them.

- Karunamon 6y agoDon't pretend you can. What would you suggest I do about North Korea's or China's human rights abuses, for instance? These are the kinds of problems I'm talking about.
- tehjoker 6y agoThat's going pretty far afield. I would recommend following the rubric I learned from Scahill and Greenwald which is pay attention to things happening domestically because you can do something about them. I don't pretend there aren't infinite problems, or ones difficult to access, but I strongly caution against treating political problems as something that are immovable.

- BeetleB 6y agoThat is very consistent with the stance Karunamon has.
