It's a place where my first interaction was as a politics baby asking sincerely what the difference between a liberal and a leftist is. Amazingly, people actually took me seriously, upvoted my question, and provided well-thought-out answers that, at the time, I didn't understand, but my curiosity about this political sect was piqued, so I subscribed. I didn't understand anything that happened at first, but over time I became accustomed to how people interacted, started to learn the basis of what they believed — USA bad, question western narratives, liberals do not seek progressive change, helping poor people good — which as it turned out, I agreed with a lot. Now I'm a leftist of some sort. I'm not particularly a fan of either anarchy or authoritarian beliefs, so I just post about killing billionaires. :af-heart:

And yet... I still don't know why it's called Chapo Trap House. I think it's a reference to a recurring joke that originated on the community's official podcast, Cum Town.
