I'm more of a lurker here, but I can't seem to wrap my head around the spectrum of responses. At least personally, I'm copping to the ML bent here (same username) and telling people this community still has redeeming value, and I have people maligning me and telling me to log off? Wha-?
Are these people just suffering from lib brain, or am I missing something?
A lot of the criticism of the old sub always seemed to mainly just involve calling the subs users mentally ill/fat/ugly/queer/trans
Don't forget how we're a russian/republican op, exclusively white males (that's why we dunk on girl bosses like kamala and warren), and antisemitic (following our dear leader Bernard).
That's what you'd see on Democratic/neoliberal spaces, I was talking about more stupidpol oriented ones
I'm happy I spared myself going to those spaces then I guess
any leftist space with mostly Americans will have a larger than average population of people who are mentally ill/trans/queer/etc folk because the only surefire way of becoming a leftist in the USA is to feel a larger than average degree of alienation or some kind of debilitating poverty to the point where you have given up on attempting to integrate your personal ideology into the general consensus because your own personal experiences will not be congruent with "normal" business as usual American politics
also how cool is it that liberals see us as rich white dudebros and right wingers see us as depressed trans pussies
and the most vocal anti idpol left types (who, to be fair, are also right wingers)
