Trippin' Through Time

This is a excellent use of Lemmys filter keywords feature. I also use it for crappy words used in news titles like slams, rails, blasts, etc

Is it really political any more when evil people have used politics to gain control over our lives to wreck our retirement funds, deport and possibly murder our friends, and oh just for fun destroy the entire foundational structure of science and discovery?

Nope. That's not political. That's awareness of the environment in which we find ourselves, and an attempt to deal with it.

Hopefully it will be over soon (in part thanks to awareness campaigns) so we can go back to politics where we have some conservatives, some progressives or whatever, and some single-issue parities that can make common cause with the others from time-to-time. Politics would be so wonderful to have now. It's only been gone for maybe a decade and I miss it so much.

I filter out all of those words from my feed. I still see a lot of political stuff but it's balanced out with a bunch of meme communities and such.

When people talk about people being jerks on lemmy I miss out on most of that. I'm here for fun.

This is the exact reason why c/memes on lemmy.world has a "no politics" rule.

I don't block much stuff, but I only subscribe to things that don't generally feature US politics. So I essentially have two feeds: All and Subscribed. Scrolling All can be exhausting...

Ha, now your a poltical memer
