Okay, friends, I could use a little AITA advice.
My understanding of CWs is that they're meant to protect people from specific triggers like SA, DV, etc., and I strongly respect that. OTOH, it seems silly to me to CW universal realities of life like death, illness, disasters, etc. E.g., some individuals may have been traumatized by fire, but discussions of the L.A. wildfires are still just news, not CW-worthy.
To me, Musk and Trump and Putin and fascism are unpleasant but general facts of life that are scary but not the sort of trauma that warrants a CW. In this convo; I even believe they're so important that barriers to communicating about them (CWs, paywalls) are harmful. However, a couple people have disagreed strongly (re: a post 100+ others have reposted and faved). I'd like to learn. AITA? Thanks! https://queer.party/@briellebouquet/113864482504334683
