I agree with other responses that this is a hard area to manage and could cause "drama". That said, we are in a very scary time and I seek an avenue to hear my friends on the other side of the world and how they are faring, what they are experiencing, and their insights. MRC is not fulfilling this, and hearing about "Favorite Fast Food" is not either. I don't have a solution other than to "try it" - but I think it's needed. We are a global community and best - we are not in a social giant that can suddenly censor particular lines of thought because they don't like them. We need this discussion to help better understand each other.
