I peruse a political forum called NSG, mostly to keep up with current events, or at least the majors ones.
Or, at least, that's what I generally tell people. Truly I go there not to get news, but to read and be entertained by people's reactions to the news, whatever it may be.
Our last political thread was successful, although it did spark quite a bit of anger from multiple people, but it was interesting, so I'm bringing it back.
I've been catching a lot of flack lately for my political/social views, at NSG and other places. I genuinely don't care. As with America's recent election, I didn't care in the least who won. With Iran's recent election, I don't care. I don't care that North Korea is exploring nuclear options and that they're not bosom buddies with the US. I couldn't care less about local politics, of which I am about as aware as I am of the current weather of western China. America's current economic crisis? Whatever. My view is simple; if it doesn't directly affect me, I don't care how it works out. I also hold the same regard for personal relationships and social interactions, but that's not what this thread is about.
So! The thread is two-fold. Either you can debate my position and tell me why you think I'm wrong, or, you can go over your view of politics, your take on current events, and why other people's takes are wrong.
And I added a poll because they amuse me.
