The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

I spent months on another social media platform doing just that and I learned quite a bit about Maga and none of it was good. They literally had nothing to back up their opinions besides posts and videos by other right wing assholes. Their "research" was entirely within their own echo chamber and outside information, no matter how authoritative, wasn't considered at all. Information they couldn't easily disregard or ignore like quotes directly from congressional reports didn't change their minds either, although it did shut them up.
In addition, 80% of Trump supporters on that site were functionally illiterate. They couldn't spell, capitalize, or use punctuation, nor could they write a complete, coherent sentence. They likely had just as much trouble reading.
I did learn that they really didn't like it when someone was able to easily disprove some of their bullshit in a sentence or two and I was threatened more than once by Maga assholes on that site.
There is no challenging Maga Nazis, Trump said it, they believe it, and that settles it.
What happens when he's gone in 3 years, though...
These people don't vanish with their opinions. They'll fester and grow, waiting for some other dipshit to "guide" them in the future.
It scares me what sort of buttholes we share this world with sometimes. Why does everybody need to have opinions on what everybody else is doing?
