Also this is kind of scattered because I’m annoyed with 3D happenings and overstimulated, but I want to let you know I hear and acknowledge your points.
Thanks for taking the time. I’m a bit scattered myself, though that’s pretty normal for me (ADHD brain probably). To reiterate the spirit of what I was trying to say in my last reply, my beef is generally not with how people talk here; and when it is, I try to take a step back and approach it diplomatically, even if I don’t always succeed in that. What’s more apt to put me over the edge is people who get put on a pedestal (such as podcasters) but who don’t have the accountability or connection to organizing that a revolutionary leader like a Lenin would have. It’s not a bad idea to try to reach out to them directly, but it’s also a bit of a leaky roof problem and I’m not sure of the how in each case or if they would be receptive to criticism; as in, it isn’t even on my radar most of the time and then I’m not sure it’s worth the energy since influencer types can range from ignoring feedback, to reading it privately and considering it, to reading it publicly and considering it, to reading it publicly and dunking on it. But in general, it is good advice to try to confront these things at the source, so the point is noted.
I did manage to get part of a thing handled, after several days trying, and only hope the bureaucratic ptb will handle their end of it as quickly as possible.

Forgive me for resorting to other clichés, but it really is true: nothing ventured, nothing gained; fortune favors the bold, etc. So what if they dunk? They already are, anyway.
Oops: thank you, as well. I agree. Small wins are wins, and add up.

That’s good to hear.
