Signed up for Canadian social media - Gander

 I sent them a letter.

Hello real person, My blog Ontario Geofish is deliberately contentious, but I would like to be polite on Gander.  I want a section on pure Scientific Method, with no myth, consensus, or 'feelings'.  However, social media is dumpster fire because of anonymity and dog piles.  The real controversy is why we are getting colder, which is of great  importance to Canadians.  I've been kicked off places like Mastodon, for showing the weather maps, but I do have a core following.  Perhaps I shouldn't sign up?

We had 'Neighbours', but it's all ads now, and cleaning ladies.  I wrote my famous 'Roof Physics' there.  All of these things have problems.  You have a 'wild west' with no real names, but then it gets infected.  Googs+ was great, but nobody read it.  You can have moderation, like mastodon, but these people become power-mad trumpies, and all discussion is dampened.  

Every single discussion group I've been on, has descended to chaos.  Is it me?  Anyway, I like the blog format with my 3 readers.  I can't imagine pushing the Scientific Method, when nobody understands it.  It's sad.

I don't think life is happy for a moderator.  So much junk.  Could you throw garbage into a public 'junk pile'?  Then you wouldn't have such responsibility.  Two versions - Polite and Not Polite.  Positive and Negative.  Would people just want to read the bad stuff?  Constructive and Destructive.

ps lots of nice subjects --

Grow everything under glass

Get rid of Imperialist Microsoft

What's the snow budget?

ps I have to forcibly shut down my brain on all the ideas for what I know will be a useless effort, like fighting clange.  Time for a beer in the sun.

Stretching the phrase "core following" a bit. :-)
