Chambers

I feel like this sub is becoming an echo chamber for garden variety leftism

I don't consider this sub to be about how to actually do magic, so I'm not sure you could call it a echo chamber for witchcraft. I'm also not sure how much leftism is tied into witchcraft, but I don't want to get into that right now. I browse this sub because I feel like the majority of the womxn on here have been in my shoes, and I derive some kind of solidarity from browsing this sub and not feeling like I'm the only womxn in history to be subjected to this kind of oppression. I like reading people's rants about the oppressive situation they're in, I look at it as someone in my shoes venting/ranting/being vulnerable. I feel like I'm seeing a trend in the last month or so that seems to be a lot of articles from established left media sources about how the right is shitty, like the rest of reddit hasn't been talking about that for the last 4 years. I feel like I can't connect with those kinds of posts because it's not about someone in my shoes venting, it's supporting whatever agenda the media in question is pushing with that article. I don't feel like I can derive solidarity from the message of "orange man bad", I don't feel like I can relate to it like I can with actually reading what one of you have to say. Just wondering if others feel the same way, because the way I feel about this sub is changing.<br><br>EDIT: I don't feel like I'm alone in this. I feel like the fact that this is blowing up on r/all is evidence of that.
