Our world is unjust and replete with suffering. The question is what are you going to do about it?

There's a lot of things you can do to improve your life and the life of people around you. Discussing world problems in an online forum is not one of those things.

These up and down arrows near the comments give us the illusion that we can vote for the solution of everything.

One most certainly can be an individual example of change. For example, I refuse to make excuses for the war crimes, crimes against humanity and massive violations of human rights, committed in my name, by my nation.

Discussing it online is perfectly acceptable. Nobody is expecting the criminal Joint Chiefs of Staff to be reading HN, have an epiphany and frog-march themselves in chains into The Hague - but we certainly can put the idea into our fellow citizens minds that this would be a just action and perfectly acceptable way to re-gain control over our society ..
