It's pretty interesting to see all this old stuff still being maintained. I used to read a lot of different topics on this forum years ago, but it's database crashed and the owner just stuck it in read-only mode.

The owner is an early Internet pioneer, but is still actively posting things: https://philip.greenspun.com/blog/

Guy's a complete faggot, unfortunately.

From their Poetry section

In a world that's full of hatred,

and news that's always bad.

the dividing line gets thinner,

who is sane and who is mad.

If a man think's he's two people,

is he the hopeless case?

Or the man who makes a mistake,

which can destroy the Human Race?

The ones we deem are madmen,

are in a padded cell,

But the madmen that are ruling

can turn our world to Hell!

Should we blindly follow leaders'

like sheep,do as we're told?

It's not the worry of our weapons,

whether nuclear,big or small,

But the leaders of the countries,

and the one who starts it all!

Seems to quantify the modern condition quite well.
