Yesterday it kinda hit me that the feed left a lot more “reddit-y” suddenly. More american politics for one.
There is a also aspecific thing that alerted me: Sudden appearance of this pattern plagueing reddit where a post about some bad muslim person escalates into edgy atheism which is also kinda racist and lowkey fascist in a very specific way.
I don’t have a lot of empiric evidence, just the vibe seems to have shifted.
There are probably fewer than 10% of leftists in the West overall, even fewer in America, and for anyone outside of the West being a “leftist” just means having a modicum of humanity and caring about justice. Any Anglo site will inevitably be filled with average Anglos, and the average Anglo man is, well, you know. Just be happy they’re not a majority here, not yet at least. 🤷♂️
