What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

I conceived of this as a kind of collaborative poem. Post your own (be you liberal, conservative or some other persuasion) and I will add them to the list.

All the groups you posted are minorities. The majority is comprised of religious anti-intellectuals. Anything opposing their will is liberal.

That bias doesn't exist in the only math conservatives care about - personal finance.

That is why they are now lovingly called the Neo-Cons! They hate the truth because of its antagonistic force to their ideology.

Neo, from the Latin cognate meaning "new" and "con" from the American slang for "confidence game" meaning a hoax, a trick to cheat the unwitting.
