You’ll find just as many threads if not more about Zionism, YU, the MO in general, etc.
The YWN CR is like a never ending cage match between sects. By now, most of the people here have an understanding that that’s the primary focus.
As for there being some feeling of bias, you guys really want to act shocked that Yeshiva World News has a yeshivish bias? The Chabad sites will have a Chabad bias, the Modern sites will have a Modern bias, etc. If you want unbiased you probably have to go to a place altogether unassociated with frumkeit.
As for the assertion that this happens in real life as well… If the immediate topic of discussion every time you talk to people is issues with Chabad, you may need to ask who the real problem is. Could it be that you aren’t being quite as subtle with your agenda as you think?
