My manifesto: What you will and will not find here

Quick content has its place. This website is intended for subjects that need more time, context and verifiable sources. Five principles summarise what I avoid and what I offer instead.

1

Instead of quota-driven short pieces — in-depth content

2

Instead of one-sided shortcuts — a comprehensive view

3

Instead of conspiracy and manipulation — critical verification

4

Instead of a hidden value position — transparency

5

Instead of hostility and hate — civil, substantive discussion

Readers who want a substantive discussion with the author can register and then send me a private message. There is deliberately no public user discussion thread; the aim is a calm conversation about the subject rather than a contest of personal egos.
