I had an interesting read through some threads on the Society, Culture and Politics section this morning, some descend into personal insults and squabbling but there are many thought provoking and interesting things in there, certainly more so than in the typical comments section of many news organisations.
I just have a question as to why it exists in CC?
The section only suddenly appeared to me when I had been a member here for a while and I wondered if Cyclists were the only people with interesting and valid opinions to share or if, for example I joined the Cooking forum or took up growing things or bought a dog, whether they too have this section appear to them after a while?
Then I thought, if there is one on each then they could do with a separate one to save duplication of discussions... and then again if there isn't and there's only one in the CycleChat forum, why do only cyclists have any points of view to debate? If I was just a Photo enthusiast for example I might not ever find it.
So I guess that boils down to... shouldn't that section of this forum, if it's unique to this one, actually be unique in itself. ie be a separate special interest forum called 'Debates' or something?
