A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

How about start with a sincere motivation to enlighten and inform an audience and/or tell the honest story about humans caught in conflict. Second, remove your motivations for acclaim. It's not a fucking sport, sport. The best documentary photographers are powered by sincere desire to connect human narrative with an audience, not by their own ego.
This literally has nothing to do with my ego or making a name for myself. I want to make a difference and do something with my life before I go, and I have a passion for the truth
