To which of these affiliations do you have the most loyalty?
-
@evan and because we’re both grad students there, go bees too, I guess
-
@evan There's only one of those I will publicly admit to so Beige Bless to all
-
@evan I had to pick one, that's how multiple choice works. But the amount of loyalty I have to all of the above is pretty close to zero.
If my chosen political party (the one I picked) starts moving in a direction I don't like, I'll find a new one.

@evan See username.
-
@evan@cosocial.ca without question mtl.rocks, sorry @CraigSauve@mastodon.social
-
@evan none of the above
-
@evan I was really debating between city and instance. Settled on instance because I've moved so often (across Québec), I'm not sure which city I can identify the most!
My instance will follow me, wherever I go.

@danso@mtl.rocks @evan@cosocial.ca @CraigSauve@mastodon.social Yeah running your own single user instance makes the poll answer kind of obvious. -

@evan City, but Fedi Instance comes close second.

None of the above to include professional sports side.
I have never understood such loyalties, as they reek of mindless chauvinism. -
-
@evan my loyalties lie most in my political affiliation and my university
-
@evan my loyalties lie most in my political affiliation and my university
@evan I am a co founder of the local organization that I'm affiliated with, fun fact
-
@evan Fedi by a wide margin, followed by city (only in as much as a city is a collection of people anchored to a place, and not with regard to the actual place or the local government), followed by university (even though I don't have one.)
I have no loyalty to any US political party, although I could conceivably find some loyalty to a syndicalist party if one had any chance of participating in US pol.
-
@evan Being in the edge case of running on an instance that I myself run for only my wife and I, it happens to be that “My fediverse instance” is synonymous with “my household”.
So that’s an easy win.
-
@evan ive learned hard over time to never affiliate or pay loyalty to anyone or anything i cannot immediately strike with my fists upon betrayal.
-
A difficult choice because I hold them all extremely loosely.
Sure, I have some affinity toward my alma mater, but hardly loyalty.
Same with my city, it's a fine town, but my only loyalty is to the friends I have made here, not the city itself. Similarly with my fedi-instance, @stefano does a wonderful job making bsd.cafe a welcoming place, but it's precisely because it would be a non-issue to move to another instance that I remain comfortable here, largely because of the people. If either the tenor of the users/barista changed, there's no particular loyalty to the domain itself.
Political party is the weird one. I've never fit into the shapes of the big parties, so I chose my political party based on the least-unaligned with my values. But my loyalty is to those values, not the party itself, should they change values (glares at what I've witnessed the GOP doing…my Regan-voting ancestors wouldn't recognize the current disaster)
