I really like the philosophy of Gemini. One thing I'm scared of is that it'll become another technology used only to create a bunch of "look, I too have a Gemini page now!" pages without any meaningful interaction happening. Perhaps I'm wrong and it's going to be a nice place to hang out. Let's hope so!
Reminder for myself: in (political) conversations, meet people where they're at. Use language they understand. Put yourself in their head. In most cases, stay within the boundaries of a discussion, conversation. Plant seeds of ideas, instead of forcing them into agreement. Debate is useful only among people who know each other well and are mostly on the same page. Debate is for refining already held ideas, not a much for changing viewpoints. Never go into arguments. They do more harm than good. If you feel you cannot put yourself in the same headspace as your dialogue partner (e.g. they hold very harmful beliefs), just do not engage.

Ha! I did not abandon this page for a (full) year.
To make it a self-fulfilling prophecy, I'll leave this page as a "look, I too have a Gemini page now!" page until I find something interesting to do with it.
