Hey, lots of Political Topics coming up that’s just turning into blame games, anger and bad vibes. I’m enacting a temporary rule: no new politic topics for one week as of now.
I recognize that there is a lot of anger around the election and it’s legitimate to feel that way. But I’m willing to bet that none of the political talk in the next week constitutes a ‘Best Of’ post anyway.
That being said: feel free to use this topic (!!!) as political talking points. I’m serious. People deserve to discuss their opinions and I don’t want to hamper them too much.
If you have political stuff to say, say it in here. I’ll promise to lightly moderate this topic, which means this topic will naturally lead to bad vibes and poor arguments.
But we need a place to discuss and vent.
I’ll start, with an opinion that’s definitely uncontroversial /s
Identity politics is dead. People are ready for real change, not corporatism in a leftist skinsuit. It would be so easy to draw people back. Stop talking shit about cishet white men or whatever, talk about how you’re going to help the working class, and then do that.
Stop doing dumb token shit like forcing the master -> main github renaming. The only thing that accomplished was white libs patting themselves on the back while doing jack shit to accomplish real change.
If you don’t like that and think the DNC just lost because of racism/sexism/whatever, that’s fine. Prepare yourself for more fascism as a result of that attitude, though.
