Mildly Interesting

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)

This chart is only accurate if you're color blind or don't understand leftism.

Most of these "left" news sources are right-wing AF: The Young Turks, Trevor Noah, The Breakfast Club (lol)...,

Liberalism =/= Leftism. Liberalism is a right-wing capitalist ideology.

The left-right paradigm is so stupid

People need to be on a team. They don't really do very well with thinking for themselves or taking issues/problems individually.

They want a wholesale solution and that requires being part of team A or B, one good, other bad. And believing there are no alternatives.

Especially when it's the people in the top half of the political compass who have always been the problem.
