I quite often have political thoughts in the shower, and also wish to express them; simply as being shower thoughts. However, rule number 3 prohibits this, or at least requiring me to dance around the subject; which feels somewhat limiting.

Despite this rule, there’s still a significant portion of politically charged posts, which may annoy others, not interested in political topics. I personally wouldn’t join the community, but rather visit it periodically; for an arguably healthier politics-life balance.

Therefore I’m not interested in starting a community myself; which is where some of you might be able to help out. I think this has the potential to greatly improve compliance to rule number 3, while still being able to express such thoughts, in a similar forgiving context.

Edit: it’s a reality at: Political Showerthoughts. So feel free to redirect any political posters to that subcommunity.

    Politics and Ai should be siloed off to their own dumpsters for every conceivable topic. Remove that toxic shit from comics, memes, shower thoughts, etc

      Some kind of trough thoughts community for ai (pigs eating slop from a trough is the image I have in mind).

      And maybe a toilet thoughts for politics?

      Thoughts?
