I guess the best I can say it is that I'm really interested in feminism and anti-racism, and progressive topics in general, but in my daily life those topics don't often come to the fore, or if they do seem relevant, I am in a place where I don't really feel it's productive to discuss them.
I'm always interested in the discussions around gender, feminism, and anti-racism that take place in the sci-fi and fannish communities because I can clearly see two areas I'm really interested in coming together. And frequently because these discussions are not on a 101-level (well, clearly Moon needs some 101-work, but a lot of the discussion the incident generated is frequently higher than 101) so that means it's a good place to try and get a grasp of more complex issues. Basically, I'm always interested in this stuff, but I'm even more interested if it's taking place "on my street," as it were.
