3 hours agoI’ve spent an unfortunate amount of time trying to bully them into paying attention to real politics. They’re honestly a bunch of nihilists who don’t believe they stand for anything but mostly take center-right talking points. They know Trump can’t be taken seriously, so their support for him is ironic, and the unironic Trump supporters are bullied off of the frontpage.
It’s a cesspit but you can abuse the stupid (they are consistent in their application of freedom of speech as a value; that’s the drama) and I made more of a difference writing about fascism there than I did on reddit. But I’m inclined to get out of the game. YMMV.
welcome to the uncomfortable stew of “they’re free to speak their minds, so their coverage of shitty internet drama is actually funny, but damn there’s too much racism”
