I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course)

soviettaters@lemmy.worldbanned from sitebanned from site to Showerthoughts@lemmy.world – 646 points –

I can't really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by "both" sides of the spectrum. It's just something I find interesting.

I was expecting more libertarians.

Libertarians can be both Left or Right, Libertarianism is just the opposite of Authoritarianism. Left/Right just indicates economic policy.

People often treat it as "Conservative that likes weed and doesn't want to be called one"

I agree (for the most part). I still don't see a lot of them around on either side. But you might be right in that I was expecting more right wing libertarians as well.

I consider myself left libertarian btw.
