Sure, there are always outliers and you can correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s just the overall impression I have.

(I wasn’t sure if [email protected] or this community would fit better for this kind of question, but I assume it fits here.)

    Huge strength.

    The alternative is Reddit or 4Chan if you want centrist or right wing takes. I know which of the 3 platforms I want.

    Seeing this place run by individuals with a commitment to creating a better social environment is also a huge plus. You wouldn’t get that under a non-leftist platform.

      “Left” or “Right” grouping is Western centric tho.

      From my perspective as Indonesian, it’s weird that Westerner lump politics into separate group instead working together for a solution that caters to everyone.

          I still don’t get actual “left” and “right” definition by Westerner.

          For example, people that support native people to be protected from encrouchment of their forest, as well as unmitigated immigration that will drive out them will considered both “left” and “right” side from Westerner.

          Some Westerner also often assume their solution of problem is “the best” while all I can see is further division of society.

          Please elaborate.
