  Ha, the "what year you were born?" question is pretty funny. I think it's probably accurate that many younger people identify websites as "apps," but software engineers like myself also sometimes do that. It's just a change in the vocabulary that probably doesn't propagate to older folks who aren't in the industry. Although my uncle is in the industry as well, and I think he, too, would balk at the notion of calling this an "app."

  Everything is political. The notion that you can do things and have them not have political consequences and be politically informed is a total falsehood and illusion.

  This app is just honest and upfront about its politics, in contrast to something like Reddit which is "apolitical" which just means the admins explicitly support the status quo.
