And you have to make the whole post about something (you mentioned just 2 things) you can basically and very easy find under "New", "Hot", "Trending" and "Promoted"???

For:

People I may disagree with, so I can learn about them.

Just make a list of all the things you generally disagree and pick the title under any of above-listed tabs and start your 'fight'.

But mostly people who can obtain financial resources in a way I do not expect(Posts that I will not automatically up-vote), so I can learn about why and how they like to exist.

This phenomenon you can observe almost in every third (I didn't want to be rude and say 'second') post you came across. A lot of emptiness that for some reason is liked by masses.

My 2 cents for your 'research'!
