is it just me or has removing downvotes noticeably worsened quality already?
It’s great. People can finally speak their mind without being censored into discouragement. It’s easy for someone who just agrees with everything that’s already popular here to say it’s bad, but I personally have always wanted to see what a platform like this would look like and I love that the mods here are willing to try new things.
it was like that for a little while at the beginning and then someone posted a big drama post complaining about not being able to see them
It feels more libby tbh. Like dumbass takes that don’t warrant a response of their own got downvoted. Now you have to dedicate a response to every blatantly wrong post or comment. I was on board with removing downvotes at first but so far I’m not enjoying the result.
In chill posts it’s good but when the topic is serious it’s a detriment.
China struggle sessions! Chapo is healing! :comfy:
propaganda has really hard-wired libs’ brains to see literally anything about china and go ‘genocide’
So I had heard good things about the Trashfuture pod, but one of the hosts is currently going off cause “leftists are changing their tune from it didn’t happen to, it’s cool and based it happened”. And I don’t know any serious leftists that didn’t acknowledge Uyghur re-education, what they denied was systemic persecution and oppression based on religious affiliation. Even if you don’t want to believe “leftists” the U.N Human Rights report makes several detailed observations about the improvement of life in rural provinces in Xinjiang where most Uyghur Muslims reside and there is little mention of discrimination.
What is up with every imbecile grifter getting a podcast?
goddamn I miss proles of the roundtable. Leave it to Colorado Dumb hipsters and their desire to start a fucking micro-brew to split a group.
