Being apolitical is just accepting status quo which is, funnily enough, also an explicit political stance.
I cannot disagree.
Turning my brain off to global affairs once or twice a week is essential to my sanity.
I'm glad you did what you want with your own life. People should block instances/people/subs instead of complaining about them. I think the people who complain actually want to grandstand their own beliefs. You have become what you hate dipshits!
Block/mute, move on. It's your life. It's your lemmy. Use the tools at your disposal instead of trying to get other people to do what you want!
Anyone telling American voters to ignore politics in an election year doesn't want progress. Please keep that in mind...
Many of us aren't American. The assumption that we are remains an annoyance on this website.
This is a fair assessment. I actually like politics, but I have still blocked numerous political communities because the users spam variations of the exact same 2 articles over, and over, and over, and over again.
It's either going to be:
- Trump be stoopid
- Israel be bad
The first few times were interesting, now it's just effing annoying. Blocking these communities has definitely improved my Lemmy experience.
Join communities focused on political theory more, you get more analysis than simply X Bad.
