It seems anytime I try to check out Mastodon it is always some negative political view or affiliation of why X, Y & Z is bad. Is this just what most people like boosting or is it a sign of botting to push negativity over the more positive headlines?
I do understand I can switch to any Mastodon instance I want and stick to a small community, however I like keeping up with trending topics in the world. Maybe the most popular accounts in the Mastodon community likes to rise up pitchforks every minute.
Just like any discourse on politics ever. It's less common to hear people praising a decision than criticising.
On a tangent, that's why it's important to loudly say when you agree with something, rather than quietly assume it's just normal. Regardless of which party it comes from. Politicians are very sensitive to public perception.
That's why I'm always arguing for higher taxes. I feel like not enough people are in favor of higher taxes.
I'm with you. Zero taxes on the bottom 50%. Progressively higher taxes as you go up that scale until you crack 100% for the tippy-top.
