    I can’t wait for Lemmy to get big enough that I can unsub from all the big Lemmies. On Reddit I had a bunch of niche communities that were pretty nice and not political. Now all those spammers I avoided have come here too and the Lemmies aren’t big enough to avoid them yet.

      The annoying thing is these people never see themselves as the insufferable bores always taking about local politics.

      It’s always really important.

      It’s always that you’re a nazi if you don’t agree.

      It’s just modern born-again Christians, who aren’t knocking on your door, they’re posting in your social Media.

    I’m fine with USA politics, because they got their hands up in everyone’s asses so it affects everyone.

    What bothers me more is American football. Nobody except them even plays this game but it’s all over the news every time there’s a major event. Same for baseball.

      It bothers me when they just do it in every sub. Star Wars memes? Star Trek memes?

      There’s no fucking escape.
