We Muslims have conducted jihad and conquered Piefed in the name of Islam (I have no idea I don’t use Piefed).
Uygur solidarity?
Seriously? Does @[email protected] know about this? Commies bad, I get it. But this is a slippery slope. This is too much politics.
Yesterday it was the flag of the Hong Kong pro-democracy movement, before that it was Palestine, before that it was Tibet, before that it was Ukraine.
It’s not directed against any one country, government or political party. It is against authoritarianism wherever it occurs and all it’s forms.
Why? Don’t you think it might turn many people off? This sends the message like “we are aware of policitcs on PieFed and we have strong opinions on a lot of topics here. You can speak, we let you speak. This site is all about politics”.
And it might end up being all about politics just like you wish. And I don’t think it’s a good idea. I think it’s better to create a chill space for people. Allowing politics disucssion of course, but this right here and what you just said sends “politics-first” kind of vibes.
This place is based on politics. You are on a decentralised, open-source space with mamy people being various kinds of left.
Without politics this place will probably become hollow and eventually die.
People tend to ignore politics in their life, while the system we live in destroys us. It is a good idea to talk about politics (and do stuff about it).
