Corrupt the youth
How Socrates laid the ground work for a mental health revolution
BEN MILLER

..."Drawing inspiration from Socrates, a proponent of critical inquiry, we have the opportunity to nurture a generation ready to face and solve the challenges of our era. Here’s a few simple ideas on how.
1. Cultivate a Culture of #Inquiry: Encourage #critical #thinking and #questioning in both #educational settings and at home. It begins by creating space for us to ask questions, leading by example, and offering a safe space for discourse. This creates a much more open #culture where all ideas can be discussed with the end goal of everyone learning more about the issue and other’s opinions.
2. Organize Socratic Seminars: Host Socratic seminars in schools and community settings where young people can engage in discussions on topics around mental health. This approach fosters deep thinking, respectful dialogue, and a collaborative search for understanding on a topic that’s very intimate to many of us. In writing this article I did find a cool organization that’s doing some of this work more with a focus on philosophy.
3. Bridge Youth and Policy Makers: Create platforms for meaningful conversations between young people and policymakers. This ensures that youth perspectives influence the policies shaping their future. It also allows serious and deep questions to be asked in service to collective learning. Why don’t we have more intergenerational roundtables where we can ask each other questions?
Let us be inspired by Socrates and use his method to engage our youth. Let's make questioning a habit – a tool for understanding, empathy, and progress. Whether it's about mental health, societal norms, or everyday decisions, these questions can be powerful catalysts for change. Start tonight at your own dinner table. Who knows where the conversations might go. Perhaps in 2024, it’s time to ask more, assume less, and see where these questions lead us. "...

FDNY BOX 4794 ~ FDNY BATTLING MAJOR 5TH ALARM E-BIKE LITHIUM-ION BATTERY FIRE IN A TAXPAYER IN BRONX

Again i stumbled over some more or less random youtube channel.

It's THEMAJESTIRIUM1 this time.

He seems to have the habit, to follow #FDNY and other rescue services around in New York City. And yes, he even has footage from way back then in late 2001.

Here, he catched a 5th Alert (aka really big fire) of #FDNY units for a "relatively small" Li-Ion Battery pack catching fire, which eventually burned down the whole building including laundromat and super-market/grocery store.

Yes and i know. Watching weirdo footage of accidents, fires and other disasters shouldn't be a thing. But in this case, he actually seems to have a relationship with the rescuers and firefighters overall. They seem to know him and let him stay on scene as far as he safely can.

And he takes on the task to not only show the flames or injured.. but the whole effort needed to remedy the situation overall..

So good, that he even get's thanks and compliments from fire fighting trainers/instructors in his comments which use his footage in class to teach important lessons.

And yes, he totally does a really great job of showing of the whole shebang ... not just "catasprophic entertainment".

Conventional economists hate contradictions - Richard Wolff & David Harvey

Richard Wolff and David Harvey discuss misconceptions of mainstream or bourgeois economists who deny the Marxist concept of contradictions and make critical errors that have real and painful consequences for the majority of people. "It's fine...
