MODERATORS
Do you really find it that baffling that people are choosing to provide help and advice in a setting that has millions of active users rather than a setting that has some thousands?
Is 'consistent' the critical thing here though? Or is introducing ideas to large numbers of people who could actually benefit from them?
Should all leftists just sit in a small room together and only talk among themselves to ensure that they are consistent? Or should they be going to places where there are other people and talking to them to actually spread leftist ideas among them?
They’re in the belly of the beast, some of us wanted out; there are still reachable people there, perhaps.
