Pop Culture

First American to put their life on the line fighting for the Build Back Better bill

I don't mean this as a criticism of you or your post. I just want people to know that I didn't intend for this sub to have any relation to the slop comm.

The reason I requested this comm is that I wanted a place to observe cultural trends or cultural events that are interesting. Somewhat related to entertainment, somewhat related to politics. It doesn't have to fit into the category of good or bad. A good descriptor word would be 'zeitgeist'. Sometimes I see a story and I don't really know how to feel about it but I want other people to see it.

The chapotraphouse comm is culture related but limited to a specific subculture. Sometimes I would post a story that I think is interesting and someone would complain that they don't want to see such a post.

Some inspirations for the comm: r/fauxmoi (popculture and politics), Taylor Lorenz (internet culture journalist and politics), Rolling Stone (culture and politics magazine), popbase (twitter account about pop culture and also posts in support of palestine)

An example of cultural phenomenon is like when Peanut the Squirrel was euthanized for being suspected of having rabies, in October 2024. Then Republicans used the story in Trump's campaign to say that the squirrel was killed by government overreach.

I am writing this comment because I want more people to use the comm. I am not saying that there is anything wrong with your post.
