- dhughes 16y agoIt was going along well the first two or three years and then it's like someone flipped a switch and turned on the douchebag magnet, then the ultra-right wing nutjobs arrived in droves. That's when I stopped commenting and pretty much left. I'm not political in any way either left or right (I'm Canadian we like out political parties numerous and weird) but I found digg had become very polarized politically and to the point it was no longer a social news site it was a soapbox for for extremists.
