Go on Quora. Nearly every single benign question I ask is always met with some guy that politicizes it. I was reading a question about people with high IQ's, creative genius, ect. Well of course the high IQ example was Obama and the low IQ was Trump.
Granted, Obama is clearly extremely intelligent. I think most of these powerful politicians are. It's like when Christopher Hitchens was on Bill Maher and said "George Bush jokes are the easiest to do because it makes your audience think they're smarter than the president. None of whom are, by the way".
The point is that any social media outlet you're on is dominated by more Liberal leaning people. I'm not saying I don't value their opinions, I do. Many of them are leagues smarter than myself and when they stay out of politics, they deliver great answers. An international site like Quora is probably another big reason for this, seeing as how most of those countries are not right leaning in any way.
But is it just the people who engage in online affairs are simply less politically diverse? Dare I say it's nearly unescapable.
I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that a freakishly large portion of any question, video, article, discussion is always somehow rooted or politically involved. Very, very tiresome.
Even books now (Though I'm not an avid reader so it's probably been this way forever) has needless opinions on how orange man is bad or using conservatives as a bad example. It's because they can get away with it.
