This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

A growing number of americans don't read newspapers. They get their news from online influencers. The right dominates the online ecosystem. (lemmy.world)

If purity test isn't the right wording, then there's still plenty of infighting, even if it stems from legitimate criticism. My point was that the right's lock-step mentality is what gives them such a huge advantage.

Oh, there is plenty of infighting, but putting it on the left is nonsense. If the establishment fought the right as hard as they fight the left, it would be Democrats running the whole government.
