I just posted essentially the same sentiment just in a broader sense here in the community suggestion thread.
I agree. There's no where on the internet that feels like a community anymore. Having people just sort themselves into their own corner of the site would make this site seem like just another platform. I don't want a platform. Facebook is a platform, reddit's a platform, twitter's a platform. It's a result of the neo-liberalization of the internet. It wasn't always that way.
I think this is right. Maybe focus on things tendencies want to do rather than the tendencies themselves. Like having a unionizing sub instead of a syndicalism sub.
I actually think the opposite, I think having a dedicated sub to go to and talk with others that share your tendency means less sectarianism, because you all already agree about some basic points, and you’d have moderation to stop people of other tendencies coming in to be dicks and start bad faith arguments for no reason. Posting big theoretical or historical discussions in main is just gonna end up in a huge struggle session every time.
My personal concern is that tendency subs will breed sectarianism which is the sort of place that I come here to avoid.

Particularly at this size it would probably lead to cliquishness and rivalry. Being a mixing pot was healthy in the sub.
