Loads more unnecessary and weird political comments on completely unrelated posts. On Reddit it depended much more on the subreddit whether you'll get those weird comments, on Lemmy I found lots of comments up high on various non-political communities which just repeat certain political combat slogans on many posts.

Even when I sympathize with 'that side' moreso than the opposite one, it's just dumb and annoying to me.
