That’s odd. When I wear my “Not a serial killer” shirt, I don’t get any questions. Or any conversation for that matter.
It does make the supermarket checkout lane move extra fast tho…
Has anyone ever noticed that those who are most likely use the term bourgeois are almost always bourgeois themselves?

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•c/politics on lemmy.world Moderators dismiss Erin Reed, the most prominent trans rights journalist in the United States, as a random anonymous personal blogger.
321·21 days agoI wouldn’t. I’d let the community decide via voting. You don’t engender discussion by silencing speakers because they don’t meet your requirements of legitimacy. If there’s a question of legitimacy or bad faith discussion, identify it, talk about it, and downvote the hell out of it if needed.
But don’t remove it. Once you do, you’re no longer curating a discussion. You’re promoting an agenda.
Rejecting a voice out of hand because of whom its coming from is blatant censorship, and a tacit admission that your ideas can’t compete with theirs in the arena of public discourse.

48·21 days ago/c/politics is a hive of scum and pedantry, with a healthy dose of hypocrisy. If you say:
Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading
…while allowing articles that are blatant AI summaries from trash rags like the DailyBeast and Business Insider simply because they’re tied to a company, you’re not fostering political discussion. You’re advancing a corporate agenda.
