Who and What Are We? Did I Miss a Memo?

I'm scared to post this for fear of being yelled at, banned, hurting Jim's feelings...I truly value, love, enjoy everyone here, even those I've argued with...we are family. That said, families ask tough questions...

Over the past year, more recently, fewer posts are made getting the scoop, informing, starting great discussions. I've always considered myself a bit player here, and such a Friday cat and scared of technology, I lurked for 5 yrs before making a user ID, so my dob on Freep really isn't accurate...been here a while.

So I ask who are we? Our purpose is?

Jim is a patriot, created a community and tool to protect and inform the republic...I have noticed a shift...if I post something, lately I am shocked no one else did before me...am I alone in noticing this?

Perhaps it is a sign of our tech and political times...GP, Last Refuge and Sundance, the Chan's 4 and 8, Q and qcodefag, all the Twitter analyses by those interpreting Q...Breitbart...etc.

I go to these sites, get the scoop, go to Freep, and am surprised no one usually is discussing what I just read...no, this isn't 100% of the time, but a lot. What changed? I don't think we are disinterested, but maybe takes too much h effort to post and we have even shorter attention spans or just want to get informed and move on? Am I guilty of laziness?

Sunday, the thread discusses some of this from the week gone by, but I'm hoping we aren't reducing ourselves to a weekly thread and that's it...
