I don't watch or read news, and I feel pretty knowledgeable about my environment. I feel that if I actually engage in my community I am much more plugged in to my environment than if I try to read about it on the news.
- layer8 4y agoBy “environment” I don’t mean the local community, but the general social, political and economic mechanics on the nation scale and planet scale. I.e. how the human world you’re living in works and evolves, which in turn has local repercussions.
- adamdusty 4y ago> By “environment” I don’t mean the local community Neither do I. If you think you're learning about social, political, and economic mechanics on a global scale from the news, then I implore you to keep consuming. I've never learned anything from the news that I couldn't have learned talking to someone else who watched it instead.
- layer8 4y agoAh, so you actually do follow the news! I wasn’t particular about the medium.
