I ll start : I have been following a pretty known tech/Linux journalist, and always found he is a fun dude to listen to, with interesting tech takes

The fact that he is also very openly “american conservative” (aka, religious & weapon nut, anti abortion, etc) annoys me, but i keep those things separate. And he does keep it separate too (politics channel vs tech channel), which is a great decision.

    What do you mean “politically conservative”?

    Edit: more to the point, political conservatism is characterized by the opposition to social transformation, yet you also say of yourself that you’re an ardent feminist and aspiring antiracist. Which seems like a contradiction to me.

      I’m also confused by this very narrow definition of conservative. The poster went on to say they are against “changes…to our political system” which honestly makes it even more confusing, as if the difference between liberalism and conservatism has no social facet.
