      Let’s take a look at HC’s local front page right now:

      • First post is pro-Elon, uses “woke” as a derogatory term

      • Second post is anti-science transphobia

      • Third post is the same story as the first post, says a “hate crime” was committed by the “woke” person, article is on Breitbart [EDIT: fixed a typo I made here]

      • Fourth post is ok, fairly normal, but posted by an avid poster for the site named Donald Musk

      • Fifth post follows the suit of the fourth post

      • Sixth post is transphobia for sports, article is on Breitbart

      • Seventh post follows the suit of the fourth and fifth post

      • Eighth post is by a news bot, headline says Israel is gonna keep doing what they do

      • Ninth post is ok, just a banal joke

      • Tenth post paints Tesla as a victim of violence, article is on Breitbart

      • Eleventh post is saying most voters prefer moderate Democrats over “radical” AOC & Sanders, article is on Breitbart

      • Twelfth post is anti-science transphobia

      • Thirteenth post is by a news bot about Canada’s Carney’s plan (I don’t know enough about Canada’s politics to know where this guy stands on things)

      • Fourteenth post is by a news bot about Anti-Trump rallies, headline seems politically neutral

      • Fifteenth post is anti-science, pro-Trump, COVID conspiracy theories, article is on Breitbart

      • Sixteenth post is ok, just a joke

      • Seventeenth post is by an admin trying to save face by soliciting mods for a token leftwing community on their site, the only volunteer is one of the above posters of anti-science transphobia

      • Eighteenth post is in German about some technology?

      • Nineteenth post is by news bot about US attacking Yemen

      I’ve been completely unable to tell if they’re right wing or just a bunch of edgy 14 year olds, and I’ve been kinda reluctant to block them till I figure out which

        Does it matter? If the edgy 14 year olds aren’t contributing anything you consider worth your time then block them anyway.

          Oh it definitely doesn’t matter, I’ve been ready to block them since the second post I saw from that instance. It’s just morbid curiosity stringing me along at this point lmao
