Online Communities Rarely Focus on Politics, Pew Finds
Original: Online Communities Rarely Focus on Politics, and Many Say It Should Stay That Way
A new Pew Research Center study finds that online communities rarely center on politics, and many of their members say they prefer it that way. The findings suggest that despite the political noise often associated with social media, most online groups form around hobbies, interests, and everyday topics, with users actively valuing spaces kept free of political argument.
Why now: The Pew Research Center has just published new research on the political focus of online communities, prompting discussion about the role of politics in digital spaces.
