Disclaimer: the point of this post is not to argue about politics. I am looking for something specific and wondering if anyone can give me tips! I live in an urban area and I’m quite left wing. I personally really like all things folklore, folk music, dance, costumes and so on. Not just Swiss - I am interested in that sort of stuff from other cultures too - but obviously the local one makes sense to appreciate. Sadly most of my social circle finds this type of stuff either boring or politically suspect. I disagree with that, I think folklore is not per se “right-wing” by nature. However it’s true that most such events aren’t exactly a setting where I would feel comfortable loudly yelling about how I voted or something like that. Now, I don’t find this a problem per se because I don’t mind existing in the same space as people with a different political outlook. However, sometimes I just wish I could enjoy this sort of stuff in a way that aligns more with my values and with the way I appreciate it personally. So I am looking for tips for: Events/groups/… that are folklore-related but you would consider welcoming to left wing city dwellers like me People who vibe with my interest and want to come together to visit different folklore events together and just bring our own vibe to the party in a respectful way I am happy for any input, except politics arguments. Not the point. submitted by /u/Willing_Link_6142
