Regardless of what that community is about, a good amount of the members seem to be content with simply repeating existing talking points, making statements with nothing indicating say, maybes or showing another person’s perspective. Is Reddit just full of Echochambers?
I admit, even a lot of supposedly leftist subreddits show barely anything more than black and white thinking, something that disturbs me, as a gray thinker. They seem to refuse to think of say, what would lead to someone to at first be a chud. In fact, a lot of those leftist subreddits show signs of being more liberals than leftists.
It makes me think: Am I closer to being a chud than a leftist, if I have gray thinking, which causes me to want to be informed as to why say, a non leftist would be annoyed with corporate run cultural wars? Am I wrong for being troubled by black and white thinking on supposedly leftist subreddits? Am I just projecting by thinking “I would not make so bold a statement.”?
Writers who make it to the professional level aren’t doing their job for goodwill, the whole thing is for money. No big corporation producing commercial art gives a single shit about representation for moral reasons, they are making a product, and ensuring that it appeals to its target demographic and is broadly inoffensive to people they believe are likely to buy it.
We haven’t yet managed to do away with this, and a soulless profit machine that includes diverse characters is better than one that doesn’t.
