Honestly all political discussions here are so cursed. Its just people yelling. Fuck that.
That might be because you actively go around yelling at people for not supporting Israel
I don’t block it because I want to start up to date with the Nazi regime
I also want to view more than 20 different posts a day…
Please be patient with us while we struggle with trying to stop a burgeoning dictatorship.
For people outside the US, it has been a brutal dictatorship for a long time. The people whos countries you destroy certainly don’t get a vote
Sorry for the country destruction, that was my bad
Can we start a thread with like blocking words, but yes blocking makes Lemmy the best
Really? The collapse of a superpower isn’t fascinating to you?
I enjoy watching slow motion train crashes as much as the next guy, but everyone needs a break sometimes, you know?
Have you tried closing the app? That’s what I do when I’ve had enough.
That’s a pretty blatant false dichotomy
And then there’s no content :(
Aber es gibt so viel Inhalt!
In der Tat. Ü
Nah, there’s plenty of Linux and Star Trek
That’s the best part
oh you must be somehow dodging the countless anime and furry communities that are alive and “well”
Idk who the fuck Moe is but this cartoon gal has quite an imaginative and loyal following
How would you even do this? It would take forever. Is there like a blocklist you can import?
If you look at my comment history, you’ll see how, on the boost app at least, to mute keywords and phrases, as well as a list that I use.
To save a click through my history: settings > filters and block > filter words
To use lemmy you need to block news about Zelensky
I live here! If I chose to be willfully ignorant I’d be no better than all those on the right I’ve been talking about being willingly ignorant for decades
I’m no hypocrite
Ignorance to current events isn’t joy.
No, but drowning in political events doesn’t make for a positive experience either
I’m actually having a great time seeing my comrades on the streets
You could also choose an instance like programming.dev that hides political communities by default
I didn’t even realise my instance did this (I didn’t do research)
But if this is it minimised, I don’t want to see the full amount
I don’t subscribe to political communities at all. If I want to see politics I switch to the All tab. Most of the time I go through Subscribed or Local though.
I’m def the one on the left rn I barely know how to use this app
Ignore it all you like, sadly it will affect you too
The people in this thread acting like you need to be tuned in to everything all the time with no filter baffle me. You can block all politics on Lemmy and get your political news elsewhere. People are more than entitled to cultivate the spaces they inhabit and use.
