Most people are more polite here

Most of them are left leaning to various degrees so despite the infighting we're all still on the same team.

No real user complains about political leanings. Literally the only complaints i see in the most random places is “how liberal everyone is” which is objectively deranged. If anything this space is incredibly conservative and I’d like for you to prove me wrong

Tankies are basically conservatives, it's easy to mix them up

Eh, there's Horseshoe Theory at play there. While some people rail against the idea, I think they're forgetting that political stances should mostly be modeled along 3 axes, not just the one. It's just that the 'average' range of political stances tend to follow a horseshoe-shaped pattern within those 3 dimensions

There's nothing good that comes out of dictatorships.

If you want less freedoms for individuals then that is a right wing ideology.

Individualism is a right wing ideology dawg
