I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

    I’ll quote Drew Curtis of fark.com fame:

    “Reality has a liberal bias.”

      Didn’t Stephen Colbert coin that phrase? I thought he said it at the White House Correspondence Dinner or something.

        Could be. Drew has also said it, that’s where I first heard it so that’s where I’ve attributed it.

        I say this as a fan of Colbert.

        That’s disappointing if true. I loved Fark back in the day!

          Looks like I’m behind the times. I checked his wikipedia page because I remembered he ran for Governor of Kentucky, but the page didn’t list his political affiliation in that race. But in 2019, he ran for State Auditor as a Democrat. So perhaps he isn’t!

          Forget lemmy. Let’s all go hang out at Fark again.

        In the grand scheme of things, both major US partys still primary subscribe to some version of liberalism at their core, although that’s changing on both fronts.

          People need to realize that in a world wide perspective, liberals are considered right wing for being capitalist. They’re only left wing in the fucked up US political landscape that is so far skewed right.
