Maybe, maybe not, but this post has sparked discussions in the comments where people are learning about class consciousness, so IMO, it's a good thing.
I'm sorry that you're feeling depressed and I hate that I added to that, and I'm sorry for assuming - would you like to explain what you're feeling and why? I would gladly be a sympathetic ear, and we could maybe work together to find something hopeful amongst it all?
Much love & solidarity
You have demonstrated yourself as wholly unsuitable for that task, and your wishes of "love and solidarity" sound condescending at best. The socialist equivalent of "I'll pray for you."
But I am not feeling depressed; I merely find the incessant deluge of heavy content in a community supposed to be for lighthearted shit to be depressing.
Life is suffering, dear friend... but your suffering has brightened my day, thank you for sharing your sads
I'm sorry you feel that way, and your feelings are totally valid. I promise I'm being completely authentic, I care deeply about trying to reduce suffering among as many living beings as possible, but I recognize that progress is impossible without some level of discomfort.
All the best!
Forget about that guy. He/she is obviously an abusive asshole.
Risk: alienation of allies who need a break
Eventual potential outcome: creation of new space with strong prohibition on political content
anecdote etc
Last year I saw a tenacious activist get booted from a large group chat for discussing humanitarian crises. It is more than likely that the vast majority of the people in the group shared the opinion of the activist. It came to mind, though a person who Worked at an NGO all day and all week, and wanted to come to the group chat on the weekend to Find out about live music, and they were forced to relive the horrors of their work week. Limiting their ability to recharge. Impacting Their work performance. Impacting lives of those it's their job to help.
There's also a world where no one ever wants to talk about anything difficult ever, I know.
I want to be aware of Of every individual walking the planet And be considerate Wherever the heart demands, and there are very strong Factors Which make it easy to pose a cost-benefit analysis To undermine my point. So I write without prescription here, food for thought
