Sorry for the long pause, I hope I'll post a bit more regularly here in the future.

I've noticed that there are a lot of people from the so-called right political spectrum around here. Well, that's not necessarily a bad thing, but I have also come across some extreme opinions. Overall, the tone leans towards "only the fittest survive," and I can understand why this attitude seems attractive to some, especially to those who are actually young, fit, and beautiful. However, one must consider that this is not the survival strategy of our species. We are not a species where the strong (or fit or strongest or whatever superlative) devours the weaker. We are a species that has come this far through cooperation and mutual assistance, if one can even claim that. Otherwise, the unfit genes would have long since become extinct. But they have survived because they filled some other niche that no one else could. And they were helped in all the areas where they apparently were not so fit. The MAGA ideal of muscle-bound, sun-tanned, fit Aryan people does not stand up to reality. There have also been people like Stephen W. Hawking among us who have advanced humanity in some way. Extremism in all political spectrums is unhealthy and unrealistic. Our species is a balanced, harmonious species. And God created us this way so that we can all learn from each other's strengths and learn to tolerate the less favorable aspects.

To be honest, it feels a bit sparse here compared to other platforms. But there seems to be genuine freedom, which makes up for it. Alhamdulillah.
