r/TrueReddit is the audition for HN and vice versa. Folks wanting to eke out karma arbitrage can just copy and paste between them, they track each other with about 12-24 hours lag.

Unfortunately that sub is as politically left as it can get. Downvotes galore if you dare to disagree with the agenda of identity politics.

Best part: they upvoted and agreed with NPR that lefties are impervious to fake news and can quickly spot it because of their superior reasoning skills.

Entertainingly, I find that many of the "lefties" I know read widely on all areas of the spectrum, and those of a certain timbre only read their bubble.

You'd never know that by the posturing on the part of those gentle persons of the bubble, but you're definitely not one of those, are you?

I dislike it because it is almost all politics discussion with many toxic posters. And they upvote snarky one line responses while downvoting anything that is remotely on the right as the other poster wrote.

It is basically a slightly more civil /r/politics with news stories only.
