You are welcome to write about politics, but you also need to be prepared for criticism when your points are incorrect or biased. While we all care about politics it's not true to assume we are all experts on all topics. Being a marketing expert doesn't make you an expert on all political topics.
For example, you claim that left wing ideology has taken over our institutions when Conservatives control every aspect of our federal government. It's like shouting at someone for having a campfire when there is a forest fire behind you. That's what happens when you mistake your opinions for expertise.
So post whatever you want, but if your goal is actual discourse then lose the hyperbolic titles, do the research and put forward well reasoned arguments.
The rise of anti-semitism on both the left and right simultaneously has completely taken me by surprise. The left’s obsession with intersectionality morphing into Jewish hatred and exclusion wasn’t surprising.
Maybe it’s because I’m not Jewish or I’m incredibly naive, but I didn’t see the horseshoe theory rearing its ugly head in our society.
The reason to post about politics is the country is going through an existential period in which the republic is seriously at risk of destruction from within. The downside for someone with a career is that you can lose that career by posting about politics. The same goes for corporations, which can destroy themselves with at least half of the country. Case in point would be Tesla. It takes a lot of courage to weigh in on political debates these days, and that is tragic. It is almost as if you are a member of the French Resistance in World War II. That in itself is a big tragedy of American politics today. One way to get around it is to publish under a nom de plume.
Sure but I still think it's positive signal to post about being pro markets/capitalism - honestly imagine as a young person how much you stand out against any socialist peers, that you actually understand the concepts that created the conditions of our prosperity!
