It’s Not The Gambling Economy....


I definitely want to read this book, after watching #MichaelBurns talk about it on his channel and then interviewing #SarahSteinLubrano. I'm also looking forward for her next upcoming book on #loneliness, #family, #sociallife and so on, on which she seems to be shading light in as provocative way as in her first book.
(comment on Don't Talk About Politics)
This book «Don't talk about politics» already recommanded by #MichaelBurns seems to be an absolute read, if we believe his discussion with the author #SarahSteinLubrano. One basic tennet sticking with me is the claim that #reason, #facts and #debates almost never change people's mind on politic. What do are changes within their local social environment, and this happens through mostly #afk #socialization. #Digital tools can help boost it, but they rarely create it.
This reminds me of this recent video by #MichaelBurns, former host of #Wisecrack, about a recently-published book entitled "Don't talk about #politics", by Sarah Stein Lubrano, which addresses the issue of how we might get lost in endless pointless online or TV/Radio debates, in which the necessity of contradictory discussion for a lively #democracy becomes a mere empty posture, just to give the illusion one actually cares about the issues at stake.
