I have been becoming more addicted to news, politics, and pol in the past year, though I'm trying to stop. If you're the sort of person who sees /his/ as a home board, are you the same a me or do you see it as hugely pointless and barely watch anything? It does make me question my life when a day's news seemed relevant at the time but was a waste of time.
Was 9/11 even a happening? Was the Iraq war? Was the Arab spring? What was the last genuine non 24 hour news happening IYO?
From my own near zero knowledge of history, the UK since 1945 could be summarised with "Suez crisis and pointless shit." Am I far off the mark?

I'm a current events junkie.
I don't go on /pol/ and /news/ because I don't think there's any way that discussing politics on 4chan can result in anything except for cancer.
But there's also a bunch of socialism and the IRA in recent British history.
It's mostly conflict between people who want a Nordic style social democracy, and rich people.

what makes it a waste of time to you? why is learning about news or history not productive?

Typical weakwilled shithead cancer generation.
Flitting from one distraction to the next
Have you ever read a worthwhile book in your life?

what's on /pol/?
it's just /b/ with more specific memes. it's worthless even for entertainment.

I view 4chan as an alienating experience and no longer have a 'home' board. /pol/ has been my main since the Marxists here became too unbearable.

I barely watch anything, but I don't think it pointless at all. It's just that I'm into too much stuff and news are low priority. I consider this a flaw in myself.
