Republicans Democrats Lend Us Your Ears

A lot here for one to Think About…but it requires an open mind to begin with…and the use of your Education—no matter what level you achieved.

Great place to discuss issues

I am a longtime user and fan of this app… There are a few too many snowflakes on here who get bent out of shape from hearing opinions that differ from their own. With that said, there are many fantastic people who can have civil and meaningful dialogue about world issues. I highly recommend this app and give it five stars.

Unbelievably racist

So many right wing, white supremacists, hateful and ignorant people. It’s surprising Apple allows it to be listed on the Apple Store. Not safe for kids, of which there are many on the app. There doesn’t appear to be any moderation, at all.

Great Polling Application

After reading the last submitted review I decided to write one and give credit where credit is due. The developer created a forum via the app where members could check the pulse of participants on all sorts of topics and issues. There is limites censorship, but for the most part polls are posted and responded to freely. The accusation of inappropriate sexual content is false and yes the poll platform is not the echo chamber the woke want it to be. The real issue is that the misinformation trolls post incendiary comments constantly and the factual content answers are not welcomed. Kudos and thank you to the developer and a hardy shame on you to the last reviewer!

MAGA cesspool

More toxic than any other social media site. The racism has gotten worse over the years. The app is infested with right wing MAGA supporters and they get extremely vile, racist and at times verbally violent. This behavior goes mainly unchecked. Only the worst violations get moderated and that is only when the owner happens to agree it was vile. He runs this site alone with little time for it. So, to some extent, it’s just understandable that moderation is so minimal.

In addition, the app is listed for 12+ ages. Yet, there is daily sexually inclined content, violent references, and excessive bullying. This app should be reclassified as Adult.
