[FORUM] Is it worth writing if it's only preaching to the converted?

[rfmcdonald]

This could as well be titled as a [META] post, too; it's tagged as such, anyway.

Many of you may have noticed that my posting frequency, particularly text posts, has dropped off of late. It's because I've come to a crisis: if people are confirmed in their political beliefs (by and large), making political commentary or criticisms largely irrelevant, is there any point in writing said texts apart from preaching to the converted?

I'm not going to abandon writing, here and elsewhere, fear not. I'd just be writing things that don't deal with politics.

What should I do? I solicit suggestions and criticisms of all kinds.
