Wait - Are you in HK? It's the middle of the night! :-)
Or visiting back in .se?

Being gemlog is a bother.
Because of the things I want to promote and, also, because of the things I don't want to encourage.
In real life people criticize me for not shopping at walmart "because it's cheaper".  Yeah, and I know exactly how.
I don't go to Amazon.
My search engine filters out facebook, twitter et alia and I don't boost them. I don't go to bsky.
Some posts I agree with whole-heartedly, but I don't boost, b/c I don't want to give the subject more oxygen. Period.
And then some of my friends think I'm somehow dissing them. No.
I'm only trying to act my moral best as I understand things and maybe I'm wrong; I'm very good at being wrong - I have lots of practice.
I learn from all kinds of places, including fedi. Sometimes I have an unexamined belief that I've held all my life even! And I'm wrong.
Or, my youngest housemate of 24 years of age will enlighten me.
Or, again, another housemate of 78 years... same, same.
I'm not here to make enemies and argue. I'm here for what my longtime 'penpal' @mpjgregoire has termed a dialectic. Not an argument, but a search for truth.
I do try to fine tune my moral compass in various ways.
In general, my interests are tech and socialism. And maybe I'm a bit of an anarchist of some persuasion - there are lots of flavours to choose from. I'm in the Greens provincially. NDP federally (I'm in Canada).
I know being this kind of a pedant rubs some people wrong, but I can't help it. Just block me or mute me. Fedi is wonderful for all the mod tools we have. Or filter me even.
If I seem to be espousing anything contrary to the above, then call me out on it, b/c I've simply messed up writing.
