Beyond Blockpunch: Moving Past Our Inner Gridlock Socialchangeb4its2late

    • Society & Culture

Blockpunch was born when I tried to do both instead of picking blocking or punching by itself out of fear of getting hit. I've since learned that we must have skin in the game, that it actually hurts us not to make a decision - even if the decision isn't optimal - because in the end, there is never the perfect choice; just a choice in which when we look back, allows us to choose again from the wisdom we acquire with our initial choice. The world is blockpunching on a global scale in terms of outdated social ideologies and holding onto banking, capitalism, borders, and outdated #SocialPathology. We are running out of time as a species.
