I'm curious what that is. There's only so much diversity between mostly-white, almost-all-straight, almost-all-men, from rich, Western countries who are mostly-but-not-all agnostic-atheist and middle-to-upper class.

I think PR is a fortress of wokeness, barely balanced by a few fringe loons on either side. Hardly diverse though.
Really? I think most of PR is roughly centre-left, about the politically more active posters are more polarised. The majority who rarely comment on politics tend to display a more common-sense centralist/centre-right/centre-left position and even the left leaning ones ridicule woke politics.

Do you think you could eliminate the word "woke" from your vocabulary on here, EDF? I reckon you'd struggle to post much.

Most of the Europeans here are deffo centre-left. The kiwis as well.
