Are you a leftist? Because I've personally observed the opposite
socially? gay marriage is about as far as most people will go on this forum
lots of people are very reluctant about LGBT+ things here as well (mostly trans stuff)
im not sure what constitutes a "centrist" position on that kind of stuff though. but i think at least a majority of americans support gay marriage so maybe in that sense blf is more left than i think
but seeing all the support for Annoying Orange, (if you support Annoying Orange you're undoubtedly socially conservative) the popularity of lord tony's reactionary bait threads, the prevalence of the "anti-SJW" attitude, and some other stuff is enough to push it over to the right for me
to be honest ive been avoiding the political stuff on the forums recently because its really draining and i know im not going to change anyone's minds
when i think about it, there are very few unabashedly leftist here. i would say there are lots of super centrist leftists because thats just prevalent among young people, but all the lefty people are very quiet or are gone now (e.g childofdarkness016, oasis, kimon) path is an exception i guess
whereas there are more active people on the right end
wherever you lean definitely gives you a bias though. in general one would probably tend to overstate how many people are on the other side in a given space
fyi all of the "left" "right" "centrist" stuff im talking about is in relation to america. america is shifted right compared to lots of europe
