Please CW your posts about US politics. The functionality exists so that people who are following you can selectively dip into rough / controversial topics and preserve some semblance of mental health.
I've got auto-filtering on based on keywords, but it can't catch anything 🥴
Block me. That's my cw
I agree. I unfollowed that person that doesn't agree. It's not their call.
I get not CW'ing by accident, but being willfull about it is a red flag.
Hashtags are for categorizing, CWs are for content warnings.
I'm sorry I am just dumbstruck by how unsafe that person is.
People's welfare is not a "subjective" choice for him to decide.
One of them has this in their bio:
"A better world, by listening."
Kind of ironic.
I think requesting a hashtag is a more reasonable ask; otherwise I would just suggest unfollowing accounts which are posting frequent not-CW'd USPOL content.
CWs interfere with discussion and wanted visibility and are, especially for vast categories like this, a subjective choice.
My locus of control has to have some relationship to my locus of concern.
I don't personally consider that practical for USPOL given the magnitude and scope of the crisis (and the vast array of different preferences to either know about important developments vs. have to click through to find them), but I will endeavor to use the hashtag more consistently for posts to make them easier to filter.
This is a bonfire demo instance for testing purposes
