This An Ad? Why Not A Balanced Presentation?

1 min readAug 19, 2016

It is hard to imagine that many on Medium do not know about these developments and their upside potential. But, despite your admirable reputation, absent a balanced presentation, here you sound like another untrustworthy ad-hype guy, used car salesman or politician.

We should all want to see these developments actually happen — sooner than later — and not just be “excited about the future.” What you and no one else interested in a better world should want are polarizing digressions (e.g., climate change, Uber and taxi drivers).

Thus, in an era of such rapid change, dislocation and insecurity there is a real need to prep and arm your audience — readers — with an understanding of the downside risk and emotive arguments. Then suggest how to reconcile them with reality and the alternatives. It is what I strive to do with articles on my Medium publication, A Passion to Evolve.
