Ehh, as others said it can feel like more praxis than it is, but I do think it helps. It shouldn't be underestimated how much spaces like this can help with mental health.

If I was without this site, the amount of right wing, anti-trans, and pro-israel shit I see would have driven me into serious depression. Having a spot like this genuinely keeps me afloat.
