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

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.

What top comment chain? They're all talking about Reddit censoring leftists, not talking about the intelligence of any faction. The most I've seen are people making fun of the right, but that's to be expected.

Federation may make things wonky I guess.

Okay. I read that post, nowhere did it come off as patronizing at all, and it holds people accountable foe having basic knowledge which is an expectation of most adults in society, so I don't see how the anti-intellectualist garbage is in any wa valid here.
