The older I get, the more I believe that humans are born evil, especially when no one is watching, like on the Internet. I started writing my Chinese blog in the hope that I could use facts and reasons to change many people's ignorant and distorted view of the world. But sometimes I am tired and have doubts if that would ever happen. Too many people leave irresponsible and nasty comments without even reading my blog carefully. When you argue based on ideology, not facts, then there is really no discussion, it's just a vent-out, a monologue.
Well, I guess I would still write on, changes are incremental, especially changing people's minds.
Your Chinese blog is one of blogs i regularly read. I think you are one of best! I am surprised you write as well in English as in Chinese. Don't be bothered too much by the nasty comments. Being a blogger is like being a celebrity, you put yourself out there, it will attract some nasty people. Big fan and keep up the good writing!
