De(z)ironizacja

the process of removing metallic contaminants from a surface;

ridding an important topic from a layer of irony, joke that makes others indifferent to the topic.

What is this page about?

It's a collection of my writings about politics, society, philosophy and psychology. I comment on recent events and old topics alike.

Why does it look so funny?

Because I am terrible at front-end and back-end, but I really want to post regardless. I constantly improve, so the page format is subject to change.

What's your personal motivation behind this page?

Growing up, I always felt a very strong disconnect between what is presented to me and how the world works. At the enthusiastic age of 3 I tearfully found that chicken nuggets were made of dead chickens, and my grandmother instead tried to convince me they were made of anything but. To me, the moral outcome was simple - something died to be on my plate.

I was also equipped with a rather crooked and existential perspective on life, a hole I could only truly fill by indulging in online subculture. It was quite an uncontrollable shift for my generation, unlike the previous one, to obtain early exposure to such a rich library of language, ideas, knowledge, theories, entertainment, aesthetics and opportunities. If I would lose access to my devices, I would eventually, to the dismay of my parents, hack my way back into them. I would break paid screentime control apps, or carefully detach a parental "seal" tape off my laptop and stick it back on precisely as it was when I was finished. In short, I was always bold, unstoppable and it was hard for me to believe in tales.

At the same time, I always hoped that my gut was wrong about the dystopia I was facing. That the world is good, and if it is not, then it is going to be inevitably good in the end. Otherwise, I imagined that evil will be defeated and lost to interchangably over the years, like in novels where a hero fights a brand new villain with every new chapter.

Today, I am combating all my false beliefs, no matter if I will be disappointed further or worse, horiffied by my finding. I want to find a truth that will come from real life data, and find a way to aid the dilemmas our precious world is facing. I hope that sacrificing my ignorance and comfort in exchange for the curse of awareness will make it worth it. It's in our hands.
