The political news activates many different emotions in the people whose lives it affects. For some, the answer is apathy.
They are simply fed up with the status quo and have decided to not participate any longer. Meanwhile, others choose to amplify their political views and engage in active political discourse. For those that like to debate their politics with a left wing edge, Dkosopedia.com is a site where all political matters are discussed. This site is a collaborative project to construct an online political encyclopedia. The site and its contents are written with a progressive/leftist/liberal view point, but the site does aim to fairly acknowledge the other side’s take on things. The issues discussed on the site are as varied as the political spectrum. There are discussion topics on the War in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other typical domestic issues like abortion, the environment, and health care. Dkosopedia.com is a site where you can find user edited political content with a leftist take on the news.
