I'm getting the idea that political speech is just too upsetting for the people on this site. My whole purpose on social media is to engage with political speech.

Think of it this way. A content warning label serves two purposes. It protects people who don’t want their feed cluttered or upsetting and a service as a little preview of something exciting that might be hidden behind the curtain. Kind of like the quote tweet did

Also keep in mind that out of courtesy many will not boost any political tweet that doesn’t have a warning. So actually, respecting others will help get your message across and create the kind of community we want.

@jentaub @Stmorecowbell I enjoy political discussions. I have no problem with CW. As @jentaub pointed out, it is a signal to me that it is something to take a look at. I am enjoying reading things here. I was angry all the time at the bird site. Staying there and feeling that way is on me.
