Because revolutionary politics is a niche of all possible discussion? Reddit is for generic discussion of whatever. Chapo isn't ever going to include a forum about waifu pillows because it is a niche community for vaguely left things.
I agree we shouldn't seek to limit ourselves, but niche doesn't just mean "small or obscure community".
Great points. I guess I never considered that the chapo podcast was that well known on the left. I def don't like being attached to succdem ideology, but I didn't think enough people even really knew about the pod vs. the subreddit.
I just like the name chapo because it's vaguely related to El chapo guzmán and kinda edgy. If it's an actual barrier to growing and influence, I'd be more supportive of the change. But I'm very skeptical of that being true and not just a truism.
