Thank you for your replies, and your advice to me. I will reflect over them and see what I can do about it.
One related issue that I would like to mention: you made a comment in the now deleted essay, which somebody has copied over to the Ecosophia Covid open post thread:
"I think many are in danger of turning my speculations into gospel"
This hit home really hard for me. In the past few weeks I've begun noticing that I've turned a lot of people's speculations into gospel. It isn't just your speculations, but also others, such as John Michael Greer's. And when those speculations end up false, I tend to lash out at other people for being a false prophet or whatever because I've been treating the speculations as gospel. And so that is something else I need to improve on.
