FYI, someone just asked me, "Could you please put a CW on those US politics posts?"

I said no sorry,, just mute me.

I don't understand CWing political posts. And that doesn't mean you need to @ me explaining why. I know THEIR reasons, I just disagree with them and won't do it.

I respect CWs for other things, but not politics. Politics is news and people need to be aware of what's happening. It's not gory or violent, it's politics.

Kthxbye.

@GottaLaff Absolutely right. You're fighting for our right to breathe. Tone policing that when there is a mute button right there is shortsighted at best and sealioning at worst.

@DrTCombs Alas. I remember being offered $100 in 1989 dollars to write someone's paper. Innocent lamb that I was, I turned away in shock.
