"Do I NEED to use hashtags here?"

Short version: No.

Long version: CounterSocial does not have any algorithms to direct people towards the content they like or spare them from the content they don't. This means that hashtags are a considerate way to help other people to curate their own experience.

Columns can be configured to show or omit chosen hashtags, which makes hashtags important, but not required.

@kel @John_Scotus I've been hashtagging politics, but it truly is a big deal right now. It's not like we have two functional parties that will legislate ethically. We have one, the Democrats, and the other continues to attempt seizure of power through any means and it's not over. It's exhausting to some people maybe but it's probably the most important thing in our lives just like WWII was for the Greatest Generation. No one saw that coming either.

I guess that there were people in the 1920s who assumed that since Hitler had gone to jail he was finished and they could just put their fingers in their ears and start singing, and he would go away, but that simply wasn't the case.

I'm all for posting cat pictures and silly memes, but I have no sympathy for those who just want to check out from reality and demand that others stop talking about it.
