Taking a break

[Virginiá]

Asking any objective Atlas users - Has this forum actually moved significantly towards one ideology or the other over the past 1 - 2 years? Because if this in any way has anything to do with Trump, I'd like to think that no one here is confusing a general intolerance for a sham candidate like Trump with moving left.

AAD is hard-left, yes, but I don't think the change has been that apparent in Old Atlas.  It's just that the GOP has been more split.

Honestly I don't think this place is hard left at all. Not saying I think it's moderate either, but hard left is a stretch. Reading actual leftist media and then this forum, it's hard not to see the difference, imo. Though, I guess how far left it is sort of a subjective viewpoint. Depends where you think the center is.

That said, if center-right/right-leaning individuals keep leaving, then that would be a shame. I like the discussions here and turning into a liberal echo chamber really doesn't seem like a stimulating future for Atlas.

November can't come soon enough.

I think we'll all be a bit calmer after this election is over.

I can't help but feel like the activity levels will implode in 2017 since there is no major election going on to stir up a frenzy of discussions
