For me, it's the lack of diversity in opinions. IDK about you but I've only seen people from here and lemmygrad.ml, and nearly everyone is pretty far left. I'm not having a big problem with it, but the site is very, umm, single-minded.

And this mind is particularly hostile to my ideas

I think there's just a lot of american leftist reactionaries on this site and it's sort of a microcosm of the US left mob mentality right now.

But you're here, and even though you're getting downvoted the mods are mature and open to differing opinion. So keep speaking your mind respectfully and if your ideas make sense eventually other will join and the culture will evolve. Or it won't, and move onto something else that fulfills you and helps you learn and enage in community.
