Independent Question of the Day discussion

Because the old thread closed.

Nice!

Very good, comrade. Should we pose a new question?

No, same.

Could you post the current question in this thread?

I think that the original thread made a huge statement about the world. It was cool.

What do you think about it?

I find it incredible that not only have we build up the physical world, but we have created a new world. I am speaking, of course, about the intertubes.

I believe you called it a microcosm, comrade.

I think that the entire original 'World' thread was a statement in itself... -facepalms-

i believe there was a reason the original world thread closed...

Possibly the saddest thing I have ever read.

I can't believe that that is true. The world... Oh boy...

I've heard of this before. Thanks for sharing.

And in a similar vein, I thought it might be worthwhile sharing this, too. The eerie similarities between this and Nazism is proof, I think, that we haven't changed much, despite the fact that North Korea is a bit more of a "backward" country than Germany was.

Those are both so disgusting and horrific.

My reaction to such events is, as always, the same as Dr. Cox's near the end of the Scrubs episode, My Lunch. "God! God! God!"
