on the subject of the "privileged" nature of the forum... well, as you yourself acknowledge, there's a certain inevitability in that. If you speak English and have regular internet access plus the time to spend on a web forum, then -- chances are -- you're one of the privileged few (globally speaking).


An extremely important point. I'll be the first to admit that my views are largely formed and informed by the rare luck to have been born in a certain time and place and to a certain ethnically privileged demographic.

I fully confess that I throw myself into many a debate where I really don't belong thru any merit of experience or stake in the outcome.

I enjoy the chance to talk about this stuff, tho. Considering how many people on this planet risk imprisonment or death for daring to discuss anything of real value, I cherish it as both a privilege and a responsibility.
