A question for the general populous about me personally

[tackattack]

So, hows that "outreach" going?  People appear to think that you're an asshole and a non-entity in equal measure.  I'm being kind, ofc,..overwhelmingly, people think that you're an asshole.



So...in your own opinion...how can you fix that so as to better serve the brand?  What would -you- do differently if you could start all over again?

Well, thanks. People may not like me, but that's to be expected and accepted. Very few actually said that they knew more about what I stand against, than what I stand for. That, coupled with the fact that I seem to be appear consistent. It's not a brand remake, it's more about putting out a positive message or an org despite the negativity at the individual. I personally, wouldn't/couldn't do anything differently. Maybe I would have engaged in more formal debates, when I had more time and energy. I handle people IRL the same way I do here, so my outreach really wouldn't be that different either.

You can't make people feel anything, longterm. I suppose I could buy everyone a Ferrari and that would make people happier a little possibly.   The onus is not on me to change people's minds about me. A lot of people, myself included, come to the table with preconceptions and biases. Some of my firsts posts were quite cringe-worthy, looking back. I don't really live my life to please those outside of my family.

As for a "fix", I plan on just sharing what I have learned and what I know, and where my biases were/are to help some overcome their own (some extreme) beliefs and biases. That plus consistency, uniformity and personal responsibility general adjuncts.
