If you don’t mind right wing politics, retalk.com

The headline of this site says "civil discussion" yet the current top post is a meme which describes a US politician with a slur.
Hadn’t heard of this so went and looked. The top post is literally a photo of Biden that’s captioned:

“The left spent four years telling us how dumb Trump is… Then they drop this *** on us.”

I bleeped out the derogatory language.

That’s not right wing politics. That’s just childish drivel. That looks nothing like a HN for other niches.

Thanks for the suggestion, pretty much everything political on reddit is heavily brigaded.

A look at retalk's homepage shows similar subforums to reddit like /ufc /funny and /todayilearned so it's more of a reddit replacement than a niche political forum, HN style.

The discussion appears to be civil as well, but everyone has there similar opinions and no reason to argue so that's not saying much.
