Farcaster

It feels like Farcaster is starting to lean left in ways I personally don't really love.

Some of it is low quality election-related posting. Another part is this “crypto is actually leftist” vibe (libertarian socialism, anarchism, DAOs as governance, etc.).

I have 0 problem with people who believe in those things organizing on here. But if that becomes the dominant ethos of Farcaster, it will alienate me and, I suspect, many others.

To be fair Twitter was a normal place for years and then suddenly it’s reactionary, bro man ethos, and some weird amalgamation of elon/Rogan fever dream mashup.

It got very right and very fast.

So FC being “left” probably means it’s barely center.

There was always a huge right wing community on Twitter, but the two bubbles didn’t overlap much. It was when those personalities switched sides that it came to the forefront.
