It’s not just half though. You piss off the right by leaning left but you piss off part of the left by not leaning far enough left. There’s a reason why politics are best left out of most social interactions bc it’s an easy way to alienate people quickly.I’ve never understood these companies that think it’s a good idea to piss off at least half of their customers.
It’s like, there is absolutely no benefit to wading into petty politics. Just not saying anything means keeping the vast majority of the base happy, yeah a few yahoos on twitter might complain about not taking a stand but then they’ll just turn around and complain if you do take a stand and don’t go as far as they’d like.
Seriously, I don’t understand it. Just shut up and sell your products
They do have to cover some topics like the player protests during the anthem or Michael Sam, etc. Just don’t beat it to death and don’t use every opportunity to show how progressive and woke you are as a network.
