re: I figured out why reddit's r/politics is such a liberal echo chamber cesspool

Reddit has different demographics.

Firstly, it's not a comment section on a news site. That skews towards older, church lady folks.

Secondly, it's not a college football board based in the Southern portion of the united states. Not everybody here is from the south, or are football fans, but it is certainly skewed in that direction.

Thirdly, reddit has a pop-culture thing going which probably attracts a lot of younger and hipster types which skew left. It definitely has more young, college educated women.

Lastly, reddit doesn't care if you're an alter. Maybe conservatives create less alters? High schoolers? Hell, I don't know. It's just a different board.
