    Welcome. There is knowledge to be had, but sometimes it’s between slices of ad hominem attack. :)

    If you really want to learn or discuss without the drama, try the private message function.

    Thanks . I actually did private discussion and found a nice and thoughtful pal so far.
    I believe this is the right place to finally meet someone with unconventional way of thinking.

    This is a really strange place to come to learn. Most people come here to vent, but maybe you can learn from that

    The cheapest way to learn is from the mistakes of others.

    Since they are precise in their devilishness, I'll take that as a complement.

    Agreed. We need ventilation to clear some space in our minds.

    Welcome, you are the 2nd Iranian to join this forum recently. Hopefully you will soon be joined by others because it is through diversity that we learn to understand each other and what we share in common.

    A good friend of mine is a former Iranian and now a naturalized citizen and, coincidentally, also an engineer. :)

    This is a really really bad place to come for knowledge. Unless you are studying sociology.

    Welcome

    Theres plenty to be learned here, so long as you can pick it out of the avalanches of BS partisan propaganda and revisionism. You'll need a raincoat and tweezers :)

    I wouldn't say that. After all the best reference to knowledge is the people's opinions am I wrong . Wheter you agree with them or agree with their opposite.

    Yes, I think you are wrong. Other than information about people's opinions, opinions contain no information. That being said, it can be interesting and informative to see why people are wrong.

    Agreed. So let's refer to opinions as information about opinions and then we will coincide.
