    My opinion is worth just as much as yours.

    Every year I lead a group of volunteers on the largest single food drive of the year. I have personally collected enough food to feed over 640,000 people.

    I've adopted stray pets.

    I brought to people food, medicine, and tests during the worst of the pandemic.

    I'd be curious to know what do you.

    Charity and helping people start locally.

    There's a huge difference between those sites based on facts as opposed to those sites based on opinion.

    I would say those sites based on disproven rumors and conspiracies.

    Millions of dollars in grants are right now building homeless shelters in Coos Bay and Eugene and other Oregonian communities...what you are saying is not true...lots of people care and Biden has funded relief. I've seen a lot of progress in Eugene...also lots of warming shelters are free and mostly church organized...to say noone cares is disingenuous when so many volunteers are working these shelters and getting funding for shelters. Change doens't happen in the news...it happens in real life. I think volunteers deserve respect for having selfless morals and going the extra mile for the needy. Persective. Have you volunteered in a shelter? I worked with the disabled as did my wife before I retired....people do a lot of good in the world that doesn't get noticed.

    I never said they were too biased.

    Here is what I said.

    You do realize that everything you've said today falls apart when you mispresent what people said, right?

    ...

    And sometimes a biased opinion or narrative can provide insight into the beliefs you hold.

    I like to read Aljazeera. It provides a unique perspective that is not democrat, republican, or northern hemisphere based. Do I agree with it? Not always. But it's important to read.

    All you want to do is whine and point fingers. You don't know us or what we might be doing to help solve problems in our communities. Nor have you answered Sly's question as to what YOU are trying to do to make a difference. Put some skin in the game and then we might actually take you seriously.

    Not true, at least not in my case....I'm neither aligned with nor loyal to any particular party/religion... and I plan to stay that way.

    In the States, if it bleeds it leads. If it's a feel good story about compassion and whatnot, yawn, it's the tale end of the news to let the people fall asleep.

    Keep up the good work riverman! Many of us aren't self absorbed Aholes looking for shocking clickbait to distract us from vapid empty lives. Some people do good without expecting praise or even recognition.
