I WAS ASKED "if you were given a stage what would you teach" AND ANSWERED this
The distinct dimensions of communication playfully & practically practicing speaking & listening:
-The 7 humble precise honest bold & gracious keys to "intellectual honesty" in an age of human hive mind pandemonium f**kery and pretense of certainty
1- call it as you see it
2-explain your reasons even if it’s simply “because it’s what my instincts or intuition tells me” and generally be open and willing to explore more of your reasons
3-boldly proclaim telling people that it may take them a while but that they are smart enough that they CAN eventually understand you and benefit by admitting that even if they don’t agree with you totally you actually do make sense and having understood your perspective they can expand AND the grace of vice versa yourself understanding theirs
4-admit you’ve lied before and/or at least at some point been caught by social forces and scripts
5-find where you know you can honestly admit that you know you speak or spoke based on your perspectival position and can’t help but at times in ways exaggerating, diminishing, hiding, & pretending
6-take opportunities to distinguish between the intellectual honesty of knowing what you know via direct experience (how many apples are on a table in front of you) & what you think you know via stories tv shows stats or the news (what the "republicans" or "democats" or "911" is or was "really about")
7-admit you know even your direct experience might be incorrect or a dream or a trick
AND
-The wacky wackadoodle word world way: exploring the tickles of sound hearing speaking meaning making playfully opening releasing meaning seeing what saying meaning speaks actually
ALSO how those ⬆️⬆️ dimensions distinguished and mixed in may inform us to use communication’s unfolding to be
-useful for honest historical factual investigation & reflection of what’s really up and what’s happening or been happening
AS WELL AS
-of use engineering new futures and creation of what will/may/can be
AND
-enjoying the/a possibility of the/a current in community of communicating voices playfully & graciously rallying (at the far end this is the fun of gibberish games, and in the middle this the fun of playing around with seeing meaning in word sounds like “you KNOW yes no yes!? right?? wrong?? left?? leaving?? gathering to get her together?? now wow we won now wow! & with a wink bow wow dog chicken cow!)
(it would be probably organized slightly differently but certainly this stuff is our human hive mind’s jolly jam for playfully & precisely usefulness to allow know and grow into as appropriate for communication’s abilities & capabilities to be addressed expressed and to contribute to our communication’s creation’s success more wholy)
