It will get heated. Can't take it, don't open the forum.

Yup. Obviously once Elon opened the gates a lot of hippies dipped out but their echo chamber was disrupted so bound to happen.

Okay but that’s actually not the only difference, there are reasons it is now functionally a less useful website

The latest is that the House will demand a recess, the Senate will second, allowing the executive to override and do recess appointments.

Tim Pool is probably more left leaning even by modern standards. The spectrum has been moved so far from the cancel culture Pink haired crazies that anything opposes them has been considered right wing. So who knows where anyone falls in the current paradigm. :P

Looks like he's a Megyn Kelly/J-Mac/flip-flopper? Seems like he started out more lefty with Occupy Wall Street protests and then likely followed the money.

I don't follow him. But he opposed Trump in 2016 and 2020. He worked for Vice and ABC and as a registered Democrat, supported Bernie Sanders in both primaries. Seems pretty left to me.

If you wanna do independent journalism, there is a bigger platform on the right and he very possibly shifted some stances politically to appease them.

But again, I don't follow him.
