Mods in many of the major communities are removing a lot of the comments that disagree with far left and socialist ideologies. Soon it’ll really just be the echo chamber it was always intended to be and this won’t be a problem.
Block certain communities, block certain people that sometimes go outside them with political posts. I'm guilty of that now and then so you should block me to.
My bad, I am posting while on my breaks at my part time jobs so sometimes I screw up. But lemmy is for everyone, you should make it how you want. Start utilizing the tools here to shape it your way.
I hate politics because it's always the same argument; one side believes that humans are people and deserve to have rights, and the other doesn't. The fact there is even an argument over this shit at all makes me want to just blow this entire planet to fucking pieces.
I’m a political lurker for sure. I want to read about people’s ideas - even if they challenge my own. However, I don’t like to debate or have many in depth political conversations myself.
I try sometimes but as you can tell by my history, I often fail. I need people to populate the other communities more, though, so I can avoid politics lol. Find other communities and comment or post, try different sorts, like scaled or new, instead of just Top or Active.
I filter out a few keywords so I don't get inundated with politics but can still get a little news in my feed. Just enough articles slip past the keywords to keep a good balance.
I just don't get too too invested into it. A lot of people just like to make wild assumptions, they love to pretend that they know more than what's already available for information, the equally wild takes, the baseless accusations and the word salad that they all actively scramble to sound smart.
I give an opinion of my own most times, but I don't breathe politics. I know where I stand, so it is just personally amusing for people to always sort me into where they think I am because they all think black and white towards anything.
