Perhaps it’s ego driven or perhaps a sense of purpose, but after much time scrolling the threads of others on Facebook and Twitter – and participating to a degree – I have a need to express my views in a forum of my choosing. And while other forums provide opportunity to discuss issues, they also cater to a hit-and-run mentality. Post a photo of morning breakfast, provide an update on traffic, and lob a “grenade” of discourse – whether or not you understand the subject matter.
