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

just speaking from experience, even when that does happen those threads are pretty quickly overrun by the far right wing mass that populates this board, who gang up on anyone even a single step to to the left of of Paul Ryan with the quickness and make it impossible to have a real discussion.

hell most of those threads don't make it to page 2 without me pumping life into them. a meme has developed with lots of
responses and/or ones alluding to the fact that opponents will avoid the threadPosted on 3/27/14 at 10:20 pm to Draconian Sanctions

i think i auto-filter the most dogmatic crap on both/all sides.
also--and i can obviously speak for myself only--more than half of my close friends are to the left of me (although I increasingly reject directional metaphors), so I tend to scrutinize the left's positions more just to keep myself in check. and i dismiss out of hand idiotic "far right" positions, so i don't even entertain posts in that vein.
all that said, i can see that a more liberal poster, looking for objective conversation, would have a hard time here. hell, i get jumped often trying to AGREE with people.

You just assume anyone who disagrees with your political views must be a far right whatever. There are many of us here who realize that both red and blue are two sides of the same coin and wish a pox on both your houses. Both of you pretend to hold such lofty ideals while you're disaffected but as soon as you get the big chair, you do the same shite you castigated it's previous owner for doing.
