They only read books with pictures too.

Where’s the comically liberal/leftist sub breakdown to mirror r/con?

Can you be more specific on what constitutes “video”? Can I assume that since you are otherwise posting media sources, these are videos NOT from some professional media source? Are they all from YouTube?
Likewise, are the images from sources or are they just memes or pictures taken by the users themselves?

Perhaps the “””federalist””” shoud rename itseld the unitary executiveist to keep up with its true platform

That is awesome. Thanks OP!
I hate newsweek and only comment on those posts to tell people how shitty newsweek is. It’s all ragebait and clickbait. If someone posts a newsweek article without the spoiler I say mean things to that OP for being lower effort on Newsweek to hide that you’re just stirring shit up. The same story on politico and AP provides 10x more info in their titles.

Ugh. We can do better than Newsweek and Daily Beast.
Of course, we can do better than edgleord memes and gripes.

Just based on this, I’d guess the subs have different rules.
“Image/video” probably isn’t allowed on politics since that would probably just push low effort memes to the top.

This is great because it shows just how hypocritical conservatives are about “fake news” and “fake media”.
The only media sources r/conservative posts are right wing propaganda networks.

Always felt it was a meme sub and data approves 🤭😇

damn near neck and neck With Fox News and Daily Mail???
Have things changed, or are they still a not-so-funny more Christian version of the Onion?

TBH – if you look at any sub that allows images, it would look like the left graph. This is why a lot of subs ban images and/or self posts. I think banning images is good for discussion quality.
In my experience, if your sub allows images (and especially if it allows memes), it’ll just be an endless array of images and memes.
Consider r/cars – Visit it right now, and it is all articles about cars and people commenting on them. Visit r/guitar, and you get no articles about guitars, just people showing off their new guitars and them playing guitar.
I can assure you that if r/cars allowed images, it would be a sub of people showing off their new cars.
If you look at subs that allow images (like r/guitar), the most popular genre of post is eternally “check out my new guitar!” and the comments are eternally “cool guitar man”. There is no discussion left.

I’ve noticed a trend towards “I have more sources” being used as an argument in and of itself, completely defeating the purpose of using sources
