The pandemic highlights an issue that has been haunting me all my life: most people live in a socially shared consensus reality, while I am locked into an independent construct. Accounting for the consensus seems more important than for the available evidence. How strange.
I don’t feel that I have a choice about this. I am trying the best I can do in this life.

Please know that I observe that you do have a choice. I have always found you to be intentional and introspective - both very powerful values - and seems to me that there is no law of physics that holds you back. The path will be hard, but it is not outside your reach.

Moreover, I am committed to playing the longest game and to serve civilization. But I don't see a path that leads me to merging with the general human hive mind, i.e. the present culture. It's the mind of a narcissist orkish monstrosity that violates truth and beauty.
