That #Guardian article on #Mastodon today has inaccuracies and implicit bias in its perspective.

"While technically anyone can spin up a Mastodon server, most users agree that the network has a left-leaning bent."

This propensity to push everything into right-vs-left polarization is annoying. Masto users seem to have a higher education level on average, and being well-informed, factual, and evidence-based get labeled "left" as if those things are some sort of political position.

@ottaross Note that The Guardian is a left-leaning paper.
@PeteBleackley Only on some stuff, because I've heard from people that know way more than I do that it tends to be transphobic (not surprising, as it's from the UK), so I try to stay away from it when possible.
