One of the things I find least attractive about masto at this point is the treatment of all things political as a verboten subject. We just bombed another country. I have friends who are scared about getting deported. I also have friends who will lose their jobs due to funding cuts. I guess I'm supposed to ignore all that? Yes, it's depressing, but I worry if communities try to pretend this stuff doesn't exist they'll just let it happen.

I guess in the end I'm fine with people blocking me. I really don't think this very huge thing that affects millions and millions of people deserves to be hidden from view. (Also, though, I didn't mean to add this to the public timeline, thought I turned that off)
