On Social Media and Positive Feedback Loops
Yesterday, yet again, I deactivated my Facebook account. I kept seeing negative posts about Oxford Street being pedestrianised, and especially radicalising people into hating cyclists. I felt that I was absorbing and radiating that negativity as well. I didn’t like that I was being so negative about something that changes nothing in my life.
I don’t live in London anymore. I don’t walk on Oxoford Street anymore. That the street was pedestrianised and that bikes are not meant to use it changes nothing in my life.
