The politics crowd don't comment nearly as much as the lifters, so I imagine the site will be, or perhaps already has become a wholly different beast with 90% of its active users being apolitical.

As long as they stick to the anti-oppression policy I don't think there'll be much of a problem. The politics crowd could make more of an effort to engage with them instead of just trying to ignore them, which I think would help.

I didn't think it would be a problem, just curious if others have thought about how it'll change the site with apolitical people driving the majority of discussion.

I think it's a reasonable idea to bridge /f/shoplifting with illegalist ideas to try to combine the communities in a way.

I'm happy for the shoplifters to be around.
I think that keeping them off the Featured Forums is a useful way to make sure they don't overwhelm the space.
f/shoplifting being the biggest forum isn't really a concern because the radical users are using all the forums. If the radicals crammed all their activity into one forum we'd be lightyears ahead in terms of posts.

You and ziq still make 90% of the posts.
@ Other raddlers, start posting more, comment, keep the forum alive, before TW and ziq burn-out!

I think the most of the non-radical/non-political users in /f/Shoplifting pretty much stay in /f/Shoplifting. I don't think they will affect the rest of the site very much.
