    The worst part is that people on Lemmy are more politically engaged than your average eligible voter. This is literally the top half of the population, in terms of political engagement and education.

    God help us.

      More engaged, yes. More educated, ehh. I don’t know about that. I’ve seen several and been involved in arguments where one, or in some cases both, parties learn policy from memes, other comments, or YouTube videos.

      Not to mention the high volume of tankies and wannabe tankies there are on Lemmy. That’s the exact opposite of what I would define as educated.
