I might get slapped in the face for this. But telling the truth will make the world a better place, which is more important.
Over the last few years, the world has gotten more radical and polarised. This is mostly because of fake news clickhunting media that does not care about the future we will all end up in.
Psychotic batshit is becoming popular, especially in the US. Cancel culture is everywhere. Affirmative action is harming innocent lives. The Overton window is shifting towards less freedom. I am scared.
Without doubt, we are in the midst of one of the most severe natural catastrophes that our planet has ever seen. We should all be working hard to minimise our impact on nature.

I will do everything possible to make sure that this never happens in the countries I live in.
I do not trust Elon Musk. And I didn’t even mention the overpriced Tesla stock tweets.
Beautiful:
Just updated my website. Each project now has a stunning image:
The next step is filling the empty space to the right.
I despise cancel culture: responding to every mishap is a path to isolation.
Dialogue between adversaries should never stop, as it is the only way to find a solution that works well for both sides.
