Obligatory pretentious introductory anecdotes
Ni konsciu bone la tutan gravecon de la hodiaŭa tago, ĉar hodiaŭ inter la gastamaj muroj de Bulonjo-sur-Maro kunvenis ne francoj kun angloj, ne rusoj kun poloj, sed homoj kun homoj.
(We should be well aware of the full importance of this day, because today, within the welcoming walls of Boulogne-sur-Mer, there meet not Frenchmen with Englishmen, not Russians with Poles, but people with people.)
I have lived in the pursuit of a vision, both personal and social. Personal: to care for what is noble, for what is beautiful, for what is gentle; to allow moments of insight to give wisdom at more mundane times. Social: to see in imagination the society that is to be created, where individuals grow freely, and where hate and greed and envy die because there is nothing to nourish them. These things I believe, and the world, for all its horrors, has left me unshaken.
— Bertrand Russell, in "Reflections on My Eightieth Birthday" ("Postscript" in his Autobiography)
About me
Introduction
Hi, I'm Jovan! I created the T_Sunrise (unfortunately T sunrise, as underscores can't be part of usernames :[ ) account out of an intense admiration for the Wikipedia project, and a desire to contribute to it, however small the consequences of my work are. (Yes, I know this sounds very corporate-y). I am not an expert in any field; this prevents me on going on WikiDragon-esque edit extravaganzas that more experienced users may be able to make.
wouldn't it be so sick if I just put another pretentious anecdote at the end of every section? look at me i'm so cool.

Nationality and ethnicity
Although I am ethnically Chinese, I do not identify with a particular country; I make a point of not restricting myself or my interests to a certain culture or geographical region. I consider myself a bit of a rootless cosmopolitan[a]. However, as being stateless is a pretty stupid idea, I am an Australian national (somehow). Additionally, I think the world is really cool, and the idea of considering myself as a member of a part of a whole, as a Chinese person instead of as a human, is to me utterly preposterous. I really like Chinese food, though.
I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being, neither white, black, brown nor red.

I love animation. I can't get enough of it. I used to be a massive otaku, but now I've mellowed my obsession with anime. My favourite anime / manga is probably Neon Genesis Evangelion, although some of my other favourites include Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Vinland Saga (TV series), Dragon Ball Z, and Cowboy Bebop (and many others that I'm forgetting in the spur of the moment). I am a big fan of Arcane and am still angry to this day about the second season.
I hate myself.
But I could love myself. Maybe my life could have a greater value.
That's right! I am no more or less than myself! I am me! I want to be myself! I want to continue existing in this world! I am worth living here!
Politics
I am a leftist and should be considered as such when editing; by this, I mean that I am likely to be biased, and I greatly appreciate people correcting my ideological bias (in good faith). I don't necessarily identify as a Marxist per se, but I think his ideas are foundational to the political and philosophical background of leftism.
My personal heroes include Fred Hampton, Thomas Sankara, Vladimir Lenin[b], Jeremy Corbyn, Leung Kwok-hung, L. L. Zamenhof, and Che Guevara, among many others.
Above all, try always to be able to feel deeply any injustice committed against any person in any part of the world. It is the most beautiful quality of a revolutionary.

Notes
- I hope this usage of the term isn't antisemitic (as I am not Jewish, and invoking the term to describe myself)
- Although I vehemently disagree with much of his actions and ideas, much of what he did (for example, his rejection of worker's democracy and seizure of power over the Soviets) can be blamed on the material conditions of the Union.
