A user driven content site needs users to post their ideas and opinions and if those users are a bunch of low iq conservatards the content is going to be shit. We need a site wide iq test given to users before they post so we can get some interesting stuff started at least.
One of the reasons reddit was so successful is the original user base was high quality. It was a bunch of well educated high iq tech nerds who made it into the major site it is today. True the userbase is pretty shit now but they have numbers on their side. Even if they had a thousand retards there will be five or six good comments in each thread.
