Reminder to please CW anything to do with politics and particularly “look at the awful things these right-wingers are doing”. Being able to choose when and how to engage is important and makes a big difference to the overall mood of the timeline.

And please don’t boost politics posts with no CWs either - I’ve been seeing a lot of that recently from new arrivals

@ghost_bird wait, I’m looking for political content. Are we suggesting folks who are mainly posting political content to do this with every post?! That would be both difficult to do for them and a pretty bad reading experience for folks following.
@ghost_bird although I get the right winger stuff. Not looking for that…
@mathcolorstrees I don’t generally put content warnings on theory or abstract politics unless I’m discussing something potentially distressing like transphobia or misogyny but it’s good to do for news and related conversations. Think of it as like putting a subject-line on an email if that helps?
