Furthering<p>Today in our discussion about On Tyranny, we talked about four lessons:</p><p>3. Beware the one-party state.<br>4. Take responsibility for the face of the world.<br>5. Remember professional ethics.<br>6. Be wary of paramilitaries.</p><p>Takeaway from today is that the world tries to disconnect us -- by exhausting us through work, by keeping us consuming, through the individualistic mindset of the West, by labeling vulnerabilities in character flaws, by creating factions we are supposed to be loyal to. </p><p>We also talked about being political in an everyday, fundamental sense, in what we do, whether that's just being who we are in a world that chafes at our behavior or existence or simply talking to people about important matters.</p><p><a href="https://convo.casa/tags/OnTyranny" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnTyranny</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Books</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/Democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Democracy</span></a> <a href="https://convo.casa/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Politics</span></a></p>
