 boring but smart and I should probs do it more 
 Agreed. I used to try harder and it became clear that there is an inverse relation between their acceptance/understanding of truth and the warmth of my relationship with them. I finally gave up and consciously traded the former for the latter in the hopes that, in time, the warmth will be a catalyst. I hope I’m right.  I’m still outspoken about issues of life and death, such as 💉💉.  As you can probably see, I’ve thought about this a lot and hope I’m doing it right. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 
 I can't argue with the conclusion you've reached. warmth and humanity seems like a better angle than combatting the machine
