    I’m sitting here wondering why I haven’t seen any politics in 3 months. Maybe you guys should look into blocking every single thing that bothers you. Why look at it every day?

    Image 1 should just have a full frame impact font reading ‘linux’. Neither are ideal.

      Nice to have this kind of posts here, that way I can easily identify the politically toxic users that will be blocked.

          There are politically interested persons and there are politically toxic persons. Mainly you can spot them by their vitriol and mockery of people who voice their apolitical leanings.

          The normal politically interested people will react just like a level person, asking why and then letting people have their own views in life be.

          Then there’s the politically toxic ones, where they will argue with those that has different political or apolitical outlook than they do even if there’s nothing to argue about. Those cannot stand this kind of posts. Thus revealing themselves. And I tend to block them.

          I’m not against politics, but for me, I do not endorse the activity of being aggressive to the opposite side of my views.

            you’re taking this situation waay too seriously. The meme is talking about fatigue not says they hate people for talking about politics

              well, it seems I’m not the only one misreading the situation. since I’ve spotted some people who are also taking this too seriously.

              I may not have the same view as the majority here, since my part of the world may give me a different experience compared to people on the West side of the globe (America/Europe)

        I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but recently U.S. one the U.S. political parties turned hard right to fascism. So, excuse me for caring about it bcz I live here.

          They certainly have. People who whine about political content are usually just whining that the prevailing consensus is not consistent with their opinions. I imagine a good chunk of it is people being upset that lemmy is on the whole fiercely opposed to bigotry and is populated with people who are frustrated with corporate-owned social media.

          Lemmy has always been overtly political. The whining is from the sort of people who move in near a live music venue so they can make noise complaints.

      As a politician, the Simpsons are a national treasure… Did that answer your question?

    I don’t know why this is such a problem for people. You KNOW “politics” are the most ridiculous and absurd aspect of our society today. And people are fed up with them.

    Don’t like it? Don’t click it. Or better yet get a Chrome extension that blocks out unwanted stuff.
