Author urges readers to stay engaged and pay attention to current events

The author argues that disengaging from topics like technology, politics, or sports is a choice that effectively means surrendering to those who do pay attention. Tuning out, especially in the face of overwhelming negative news, plays into the hands of those with specific aims. While it's impossible to keep up with everything, even a peripheral awareness, facilitated by social media, is better than a self-imposed lack of awareness. The piece encourages readers to stay engaged and pay attention to remain part of the ongoing discourse and avoid being left behind by significant changes. AI
