I just wish that topical content reflected the broad nature of current goings-on around the world.
Unfortunately, that is not the case. Not even close. Most goings-on are just plain absent from the topical content.
Western media has their audience actively dumbing down discussion on the web to a level that's, for lack of a better term, embarrassing. The lack of awareness, collectively speaking (I say collectively speaking because there are some good posters on here who seem to pay attention to things and think on their own and place goings-on into the right perspective), is just astounding.
This forum, for the most part, is one of the worst in that regard. It may even be THE worst, as I make my rounds around the web throughout the week or whatever.
Do better...
