Memes

I am also from the 97 fuckin percent of every human on the planet that couldn't give a shit about US politics

Right? It’s such a US way of thinking to assume the entire world needs to hear about your issues.

I hope it was one of those poops where you felt lighter afterwards, and that wiping afterwards wasn't an ordeal

Seriously, OP is straw-manning. There's not this much politics on other sites. Lemmy has a ton of tankies so everything is about communism here

some would even consider it not only annoying, but spamming as well

That's for people who want only political memes. Someone should start an "apoliticalmemes" group.

That same dad when I happen to mention my trans friend in passing because it's my friend:

three hour rant about me being men and testicles are a thing for a reason and this mother fucker is destroying America

Y'all "let's not politic" folk politic ALL the time, you just think you can "nuh uh" to pick and choose what qualifies. Denying Healthcare to people isn't political to yall, but I just cut a friend out because he literally shushed me for "being too political" for........ Saying I'd like half hour busses back.

I agree. It’s like sometimes you just want to go for a walk and there’s some guy following you around screaming EvErYtHiNg Is PhYsIcS just to remind you that there are physical laws to explain the world around you. Just shut up and let me walk in peace sometimes.

I work in the government and let me tell you: Yes

Becauses a scientist says it exists and that made God cry so we gotta burn him.

Alabama inmate opposes being ‘test subject’ for new nitrogen execution method

At least pick a noble gas

not only political but also a jojos reference

I exist in several categories of people who’s right to exist have been threatened many, many times throughout history, I agree that everything is political, or rather, that politics encompasses everything.

However, not every discussion should become politically oriented, as it’s not particularly the most productive in many cases. This is most prominent on the internet, where nuance, which is ESSENTIAL for productive political discourse, is often absent. I find much political discussion. This is especially true in dialogues where it is either discussed on a broad scale, or where it is discussed in a reactionary manner. When my answers to political topics are so often “it depends”, this stuff tends to be quite straining, especially when my attempts to create dialogue are shot down.

In short “not everything is political” exists because you’re either detailing a discussion to talk about how horrible everything is, or you’re on the internet and internet politics just suck.

"I am priveledged enough that my right to exist and thrive is never questioned or under fire, and things that I care about are protected by the status quo and the suppression of others"

so someone who this doesn't apply to thinks that some random star in our neighbour galaxy is political?
