Yeah, I agree. I am actually looking forward to the U.S elections for that reason alone.
I think that we are a community capable of creating/researching/curating some great content. Ukraine/Russia has been a great example.
I just think that we should get into issues that aren't necessarily the hot topic of the moment.
I am actually tempted to put some feelers out for the starting of a community researching project. I think we have a varied knowledge base and if we could put our collective minds to use in mapping the history of a country/region/issue in a similar way to the Ukraine stuff. Even with the Ukraine stuff, there are so many great takes and stats that go under the radar that I think are worthy of preservation, fact checking, and then acceptance into the mega-folder/document.
I think this is an excellent idea and believe that @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net has said something very similar. It was the major impetus behind the COTW thing that was started a few weeks back. It might be worth hitting him up to discuss further.
COTW?
Country of the week.
Oh, nice. That's cool.
