Of the more vocal here: You, Downeast, Shaggy, Ghost, and SNOWMANN aren’t right wing. Forsyth, Chris AMB, Birdman, Nerman, and FallsLake all seem pretty moderate. BullCity wx, crèce, GeorgiaGirl, and Steven1974 all seem either moderate or lib. I’m trying to figure Lick out but he seems to be independent. Snowlover/Dewpoint Dan/Carrollton is also tough to figure but he doesn’t seem real strong right wing..I’m guessing right of center Republican. The rest of the vocal folks appear to me to almost all be solid con/GOP. So, my guess is ~~2:1 ratio of con/GOP to moderate/lib/independent/Dem. That’s far from a right wing echo chamber imho.
The other place has always been rather close to a left wing echo chamber with a huge majority although there’s usually a decent con presence including severestorm from here. The libs there aren’t nearly as harmonious with each other as they used to be. There’s now a ton of infighting. I feel like that despite our big differences here that we get along better. Probably helped by more moderation.
If I left any vocal participant out who isn’t con/GOP, my apologies as it wasn’t intentional. Please correct me if that’s the case.
Speaking for myself only, I’m neither con nor lib. Neither Dem or Rep. I’m a proud right of center independent who mainly wants us all to get along better despite different opinions on the issues.
Edit: RDUHeat Island: I don’t think he’s a full con.
