"Quora is a cesspool. Quora is a swirling pit of pseudo-intellectuals, alt-right morons, neoliberal morons, out-of-touch old people, atheist zealots, neopositivists, and outright liars. I would hazard a guess that around 70% of questions are clearly loaded and biased political questions that everyone with two brain cells to run together and with a little bit of emotional intelligence already knows the answer to and that are only posted in a pathetic attempt to feel vindicated for holding a completely backwards view or even for promote their own views. Other than that there's people asking nonsense questions about who would win in a fight between two fictional characters from entirely different forms of media, how to do basic tasks, kids too lazy to cheat on their homework the old fashioned way, atheist zealots trying to harass religious and spiritual people by any possible way, completely biased alternate history scenarios, what is and what is not pseudoscience, pseudophilosophy, science denial or antiscience, people, thinly veiled insults against political pundits and calls to action for some nonsense that isn't actually happening, and maybe 5% actually legitimate questions looking for legitimate answers. The answers are even better. Any question having to do with guns, self-defense, crime, race, sexuality, gender, religion, spirituality, science, or anything else of that sort will almost instantly result in a berth of anecdotes that clearly never happened from people definely not trying to prop up some right-wing or left-wing viewpoint that have nothing to do with real right-wing and left-wing viewpoints, or even atheist fanatical and atheist extremist viewpoints. That or they just put their opinions and thoughts as absolute facts. And about the whole censorship and powermad moderators, they only censorship things that goes against what they support and against the norm of Quora. If they were going to do it right, I'd estimate there would be about 60 people left on the site. It's not even good for fans of aspects of culture to use as a discussion board because it almost always devolves into pedantic squabbling until someone brings up something political and the whole question explodes. Quora is a bad site populated almost entirely by awful people that only serves a function by somehow being 40 different echo chambers in one place. Sorta like Reddit but somehow much worse. Don't use it, even for its intended purpose. If you have an actual question about something, it is better you ask it to a close friend or even try to figure out the answer by yourself, at least you will keep your wrong answer to yourself and to your close friends and there's an almost 0 chance that it's going to somehow end up transforming into a 100+ comment chain about someone lamenting why white people can't say racial slurs or someone trying to promote militant atheism and neopositivism by any possible mean."
