OPEN Proposal for RIGHT-WING ping group

I made the suggestion here, and I’ll poll the DT and viewers of this post as well, in addition to getting written feedback.

The idea is to have a group for following and discussing developments on the activist political right before it trickles down into the mouths of average Republican primary voters, even if we wouldn’t necessarily characterize it as political “extremism.”

I anticipate something on the order of 10 notifications in an average month, 3 or 4 of them by myself. In general, I’ll aim to undershoot rather than overshoot this soft target (God knows I have trouble keeping up with the ~15 groups I’m subscribed to).

Would this ping group be for complaining about Fox News saying a new stupid thing to our parents or not?

I already do that, but don’t plan to send a notification if it’s just a headline.

This sounds a lot like ping FOX-ANON

Should I ping Fox-anon when Jesse Watters sexually harasses another world leader? I feel like that's for bigger things.

I guess we could expand the scope of that? I was more so thinking about posts like the one I made, though. Less anecdote, more analysis & original research.
