EDIT: Don't vote on this poll if you don't interact/lurk in this community somewhat regularly. This survey is for those people.

Hi everyone,

I made a survey to better gauge the demographics of this community. I don't have any reason to, just doing it out of curiosity.

I'm glad that everyone felt free to talk about it in detail and have some good discussion on my previous post, but it made it hard to count all those comments up. Someone suggested that I do this to get more accurate results.

The poll ends on April 6th at 11pm. I'll post the results when it's over. You can also view the live results of the poll on the website.

Might make a future one for sexuality. Data is fun, what can I say.

What are your predictions for this poll?

Why is vaush problematic? I'm out of the loop

He's been known to have chaser-y tendencies, he's been casually misogynistic and racist for the sake of winning "debates", he's been known to defend lowering the age of consent as well as the production of CSAM(child sexual abuse material), and most recently he's been known to collect loli and zoophilic (not furry) hentai.

"problematic" was me being generous.

He's the main reason 196 is so sectarian/"anti-tankie" as he has a lot of fans that post there.

Wow and here am I thinking it's common sense to be anti tankie bc of 196

I (ex tankie) thougt because of the anti takie sentiment in 196 that there were a lot of ppl in general that were againat takies, but this vaush stuff makes a lot more sense

[–] good_girl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 7 months ago

Ah alright, yeah a lot of anti-tankie sentiment is concentrated online. Other spaces tend to be a lot less sectarian or at least more willing to listen/put aside differences.

Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me. I'll definitely avoid that guy's channel.
