I would like to thank everyone of you on DU [View all]

This may sound cheesy and you might see this as a pointless post, but because of all of you I've been able to learn about what is actually going on in the world. Not only does everyone post in-depth and fact based material, but you help me understand and interpret what is being posted. You guys may be brutal sometimes, but you make me question my own beliefs and try to open up to new ones. I learn more from reading your comments than I do from the actual articles. This is the only news source I use now because I actually trust what you guys have to say. I went through a period where I pretty much boarded on becoming a conspiracy theorist, but because of all of you I began to understand how to dissect and look into material. I love that there is a place where I can communicate with rational people instead of screaming at people with no common sense. This is refreshing for someone my age who is still trying to figure out what I stand for.

Thank you All!
