Why not both ¯\_0_/¯ I've learned not to poke either anymore, but in this case we're talking about LW; and they are incredibly hard to talk to about socialism/anti-imperialism. Usually you immediately get shut down by their already assumed prejudices/opinions of them.

I'd normally not mind much, but since they're the huge majority, so you have almost no choice but to discuss politics with them, specifically. At least with ML i can just avoid it easily (ymmv)
