It is objectively a lot more male than Reddit or other social media. Reddit has many issues, but lack of women is not one of them.

    No, I don’t believe in that, I think everything is political. I have lots of fun with politics. Lately I’ve been watching Babylon 5 for fun and playing Subnautica Below Zero. Those are political. One’s about the politics of peace, one’s about the politics of capitalism and environmentalism. If I thought My hobbies weren’t political, I’d be far less aware of the interconnectedness of the world around Me. You need to know that everything’s connected. Everything has an impact. Everything matters. I don’t ever forget that, I don’t ever act without thinking of the consequences. I don’t go to the shops and buy some mincemeat without thinking of the cows that died to make it. I think of the cows, and so I don’t buy the mince. I don’t forget about politics. It’s in everything beautiful around Me. It’s in nature, it’s in love, it’s in identity. I’m goddessgender. That’s a gender defined by politics, defined by My relationship with others, just like the genders of man and woman are. I’m gay, and I love politically. When I caress My partner’s head, I take extra delight in how I’m committing an act of defiance against the patriarchy. That’s what recharges My batteries. I don’t agree with living the kind of lifestyle where you can forget that what you’re doing is always political.

      You’re right that everything is political, but you don’t need to analyze the details 24/7. Sometimes it’s OK to just be too tired to think right and want to watch some mindless cat video. Also you might be able to recharge thinking about politics, but for most people it’s very draining, especially nowadays. Taking time for self care is the only way most people are able to engage without burning out or going insane, which once again, helps no one.

        I don’t believe that. I think most people have a fun time and recharge their batteries watching a political movie like Star Wars or Jurassic Park or K-pop Demon Hunters. Don’t you?
