I'm looking for based communities that post interesting news and posts.
Here are my choice of communities so far:
https://scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct
https://scored.co/c/KotakuInAction2
https://scored.co/c/NoNewNormal
https://scored.co/c/ClownWorld
https://scored.co/c/conspiracy
https://scored.co/c/Nationalism
Do you have any other communities worth following?
Conpro used to be great but it's a mixed bag now, you'll get good stuff and then a bunch of trash on seemingly the same day. Very active though. Conspiracy is long past it's heyday but has some good quality stuff there. KIA2 isn't as radical as the rest of the place but I think it's quite good when two specific users aren't fighting each other in the comments (I think they're both temp banned right now).
I like conpro. I just ignore trash posts. If I click on a text rant that is just a half baked 85 iq shower thought, I close that tab and find that I am uninjured by the experience lol.
But not everyone is like that. Ive been browsing 4chan for well over 15 years now, so anonymous trash posts ranging from spam to raids to psyops are just something I deal with (without spending much time or energy, I'd like to think).
Some people rather see "their" community as a garden, and they want the garden to be nice, and they want to weed the garden, and they want the garden to have specific flowers. I don't think that's necessarily wrong, but I will say, that type of person is resisting the weight of the world instead of adjusting to it and becoming a part of it. It is difficult and often fruitless. But hey, I'm sure there must be a good balance that can be maintained.
Four years ago it was an amazing place. Then some websites got shut down or banned and everyone who's entire existence is spamming garbage infected it. Oh well, you can still get some good conversations going.
