What You Will Get:
I wish to use this platform as a way of publishing a contrarian’s view on current events. Not arguments of certainty, but rather documenting the way a young man views the world and observing how these views change over time as said young man reads more, learns more, and lives more.
It is my sincerest hope that these ideas provide a platform for thoughtful contemplation and expansion of one's worldview. I hope the ideas written here from heart and mind to electronic paper will be of some utility to others and to my country in the midst of crisis and uncertainty.
