What if lurkers want more drama because they find this Reality TV show entertaining?
(lol)

2 cents from a long time lurker here.

I’d say I feel both a twinge of sadness and anger at the direction the forum has gone post elections. The sadness part is obvious, the anger is that I have to admit (to myself) that the right wing rhetoric about the left (especially the liberal left) eventually “eating it’s own” is most probably true.

For me personally I’ve benefitted from this forum by being able to take in a left leaning perspective of the issues of the day from (and by) the lived experiences of people; as opposed to media personalities. For me personally the current toxicity doesn’t really matter and if I have to honest, there is a “reality tv”/trainwreck aspect to it that have to admit is perversely enjoyable!
