The above is from G’Morning / G’Night from Lin Manuel Miranda who is among the many who bring joy to Twitter. The above sentiment seems appropriate to any beer Reddit’er, Facebooker, Instagrammar and Twitter-er.
I think we all need to turn off the comments either with a toggle of a social media setting or in our minds. It is way too easy get bogged down in the comments and comments of comments and not experience beer. If a comment is more important to you than looking at the shelves of a good, local beer shoppe, then maybe you should be an influencer of comments and not beer.
Here’s the new model: do not write a disparaging comment or a sarcastic one for a week each month. Then during the second week, add new people to your feed with different worldviews. Someone from Ireland maybe or someone whom you would disagree with and read their posts without commenting. Just try to understand.
Maybe this could be a step towards making social media a touch more friendly.
