>>10661282Only time I've used /pol/ is for the Yonkers bait threads lol. It's basically just the news board plus extremism, so there's really nothing it could offer that you couldn't find by reading the news. Least that's my take on it.
>Now what makes you say that?The leakage from /pol/ has made me stop using the boards I used to, which isn't to say that there isn't good threads on them anymore, but even the good ones would get derailed by that type of stuff. It's true what you say about there being no good alternatives too. Maybe it has to blow up for things to get better. If it did, the adversity would at least force people to adapt to overcome it.
