Thus why I always read newspapers which views I know are opposites of mineThat's really one of the inherent problems with the internet. In the past you'd probably mingle with people who were like-minded and had similar opinions.
Now with the internet you can find vast communities peopled by those who have the same viewpoints and opinions, with no real incentive to seek out other insights other than to mock and jeer. It's like a hyper echo chamber. The Coli is just another product of that.
I can understand that.Plus you couple that with the reality of constantly suppressing real feelings and opinions in real life, and the consequences that happen because of that, especially to black people, and I think you see what we see on the coli. It happens for white people too.
By the way, I was not criticizing because I do think the Coli is a great place for US black people to rant about the issues they encounter in the US. Which may not be possible elsewhere. It's just that I don't need that myself so that's why I can't barely bear it at the moment. And I feel like time won't help the Coli either. It's a vicious circle because people seek places or persons which they agree with. And because once the agreement is found, opinions tend to remain the same and even be more conservative.
