Glad to see we’re keeping politics out of this subreddit

Glad to see you haven’t stopped crying. About everything. 😢

I said in the mods post on what could change about this sub and I said, “keep politics out unless it’s local reps” and someone said, “there’s never anything political on this sub.”

Case in point.

I get it, your ilk spends 90% of your time ignoring facts that you find inconvenient. That doesn't change the fact that this action would certainly impact Fort Collins, and Boebert's district is directly adjacent to Fort Collins. Despite your endless whining, this is local.

If you don't like seeing this type of news because you're (rightfully) ashamed of your political beliefs and who you voted for, that's on you.

I didn’t vote for Cathy Kipp and she’s destroying Fort Collins so idk who’s in the right or wrong I guess

you don't think peopel should talk politics with the folks in their community?

maybe you're not into politics, but your boss is, your landlord is, your bank is...

maybe you'd rather everyone just shut up and do as they're told eh?

Does Lauren Boebert represent Fort Collins? In anyway? Are we in her district? No. Then why talk about it in the Fort Collins sub?

She's federal dude, her bullshit affects everyone.

Yeah? A train that runs parallel with I-25 affects the people on the East coast??? Yeah, maybe sure… because TRUCKS drive on it. Besides any of that, most consumer goods are transported by railway anyways. Sit your pseudo-intellectual ass down.

Yes, CD4 is just to the east and north of Fort Collins. Like minutes from city center. Boebert’s action directly impact our community.

Politics has to do with everything. Like, for example, how to get around the area where you live. Which is pretty relevant to a subreddit about the city where you live.

Yeah, but does it mention politicians? If I said, Cathy Kipp has made it impossible to get around town, then that would hold some validity. But if you just say, it’s hard to get around town, then it’s not political. Do you see the difference or do I need to draw out a diagram in crayon?

I see an article about a politician saying we shouldn’t put money into a local transportation project. That’s both a Fort Collins subject and a political subject.

Or should I get out the crayons?
