May I Suggest

May I suggest that we cut back on the number of political and current event posts on WTF? It’s all overwhelming, crushingly important, and completely incomprehensible. But I go to WTF to escape all of that. It’s that or toss my phone in the commode.
Gardens, cooking, pianos, music, grandchildren,, landscaping, community events, weather, houses for sale, snowblower tips, concerts, household, hints, history, scientific advances.
Jesus!
Anything but the gawdawful mess we find ourselves in. This too will pass. I lived through Vietnam and I know stuff.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Hi, Steve,
I won't be able to separate the gloom stuff from the pleasant stuff and not post about the gloom stuff.
Pease consider I'm interested in current events and political topics, but to my point, I don't have another community of informed, insightful people who I can talk to about these topics.
I'm sorry I don't know how to say this in a way that would sound humble because I don't mean it to be arrogant but most people are uniformed and dumb.
I appreciate your post. I will try to post less than I have about these topics.
TBH, I have less and less to say because I'm feeling more and more like-- what can you say?
TBH, I'm finding there are many times when I can't say what I want without cursing like a sailor. So I don't say anything because this isn't the place for a lack of decorum.
Here's what I suggest-- I suggest we try to make it clear in our thread titles if a thread is about current events or politics, giving all of us the the option not to read them or to not read them on any given day.
