I could be off mark, but I feel on EP people talked about their experiences and their interests, whereas on SW people talk about their politics and

…their world view or attitudes. I guess it’s indicative of a the change in society. Which is a pity because I prefer the EP posts.

It's a different time.

We've seen a younger generation spoon-fed social media dross while discouraging thought and discourse on the stuff that really matters.

The E:P Community recorded the events that shaped their lives.
The tragic; the shocking; the elation; the fear from past or future events, and the community acknowledged it all and was supportive.

Many still do that here. But youngsters really do have to accept the fact that you're not supposed to ask strangers why their boyfriend/girlfriend says and behaves the way they do.
You're supposed to ask them yourself. etc
