Just a quick look around these forums reminds me again and again that as a people, despite being at a critical point in our existence, we are far from being respectable.
It seems our very existence is based on bashing each other, and creating differences.
Andrey tries to advertise a party that will raise funds for the ACYO, and the whole world comes crashing down on him. Jeez, if you don't want to go to the party, don't! But at least have the decency to not discourage others from going too! (I've been guilty of doing this myself in the past, by the way).
And then, we move on to the pathetic display that has become our Armenian discussions part..
One fellow saying he'd rather save a single Turk than save 1000 Armenians from the middle east.
Another one telling me a while back that the only diasporan Armenians that Hayastantsis like are Kirk Kerkorian and Charles Aznavour, because they sent a lot of money. Interesting... Maybe you'll start liking me when my bank account reaches the billion dollar mark..
And yet another saying "this is why we (arevelahays) hate arevmdahays".... while he had, a short time earlier actually started a thread about a potential symbol for Armenian Unity. Here's the best symbol I can find that shows Armenian Unity. That's how laughable and oxymoronic the term "Armenian Unity" really is..
So for all those who think we're getting anywhere (and I would have been in this category a short while ago), we have a looooong way to go. BUt it seems that we're more comfortable right where we are.
