I don't think rage bait that divides progressives for the sake of content is good for the community 🤷‍♂️. Short term gains for long term losses.

I know several folks, moderate in most ways, all pretty socially liberal, turned off by aggressiveness against less progressive opinions. I regularly experience, this but I'm more interested in a more open platform and so I deal with it.

Butterfly drives a non trivial amount of that content.

Contributors could focus more on hobbies, even in the reposting niche news sense, but communities just repost politics and Linux news (another topic that becomes divisive) and this place becomes more and more an angry echo chamber.
