Ah yes, the potato tree.

I was on the receiving end, except the roles are reversed. Dude retired and left an undocumented spaghetti mess.

But! He worked on a code base by himself for two years, on a subject matter he knew nothing about, in a language he didn't know, and kept asking management for help.

Would YOU share a road with cars on your bike?

You don't get to get away from it. MAGA politics has made life a living hell for so many people that can't get away from it, and the only thing anyone can do is confront you with it every waking moment of yours.
