As someone who has to read newspaper comments sections daily I can tell you that most people in those bubbles are self funded retiree weirdos who think anything that wasn't made in the 1980s is communism. The disadvantage of comments sections in journalist websites is that the comments section itself is sometimes more important to read than the article itself. What this means is you end up with a community of commenters who use other commenters in order to comment on the article itself which is often distorted from the original tone of the article. Then you know companies know this because they write articles to feed the commenters so they can meet their unique visits or clicks KPI but no one really reads the full article. So the Australian's percentage becomes believable when you put a asterisk next to it clarifying that people who read the Australian trust themselves to be correct in the comments section in an article written in order to feed the comments section so a journalist can reach their KPIs.

My family is avid Courier Mail readers. My Mother, Grandmother and my late Grandfather all read it, my grandfather would read the whole drat thing but I noticed my Mom and Grandmother would only read the Letters to the Editor. It's the same thing as this but online, people aren't clicking on articles to read them anymore but to find people to agree with in the comments section to confirm their opinions are correct.

Wouldn't it be more that they are looking for people in the comments section to disagree with, and by winning an argument/swearing match with them confirm that their own opinions are in fact correct and the other commenter is a poopy face.

Over and over again. So there isn't much disagreement that I read just pensioners sucking eachother off. And the effect it has on people is interesting. For example my Grandmother and late Grandfather are life long Liberal voters but my Mother - Also a lifelong comments section reader votes Katter 1 and One Nation 2. If i ask her why she can't give a reason, she just does because it feels like the right thing to do. Saying Workers of the World, Unite on there will get your comment banned immediately by a bot searching for key words for example.

simmyb posted:Uhhh neither are good I miss the 60's when leftists understood that nuclear power was clean and that fossil fuels were bad. drat hippies conflating nuclear weapon proliferation with nuclear power. Sure let's worry about a few drums of (able to be reused in an MSR fast reactor design) spent fuel as opposed to millions of tons of coal ash. France: 87% clean energy, lowered their emissions further since 2015. Germany: 46%, emissions raised since 2015. Also electricity prices have gone up since then. Which country has a fuckton of nuclear, and which eliminated it in favor of solar in a country where the sun shines like 10 percent of the time?

Australians are way too into symbolism and coal mining is traditional honest work whereas nuclear means bombs and meltdowns and not in my backyard thanks. Now it’s too late - it would take 10+ years to get the infrastructure for nuclear going, and renewables are already cheaper and are more viable every day, without the same potential drawbacks.
