This platform is almost 100% idealism and politics. Any hobby/technical community goes completely inactive.
Second this. A lotta dumb political crap.
Most of the crap itself isn’t even political. Just dumb crap people from “political” communities.
Lots of wanna be communists that are well intentioned but have little real world experience
My wife studied sociology, that includes the work of gramchie, Dubois, Lenin, Marx.
I didn’t, but I got plenty of exposure. What’s clear to me is that hardly anyone actually knows what communism is. That includes Allies and opponents of it.
They all think they do. But they really don’t.
Political extremists. So about the same as Reddit, though they seem to be a little more frequent/outspoken here. Also funnily enough the complete opposite side of the spectrum. Used to get called a dirty commie because I believed in Nationalized healthcare, but now I’m apparently a facist for not worshipping the CCP.
This goes not only for the tankies, unfortunately…
It’s really goddamn preachy. There’s a real sense of superiority a lot of users have that I don’t recall as much on Reddit.
There’s also the fact that small communities are dead and it’s next to impossible to grow them, so you’re stuck with the same people on the front page every day.
