Let’s say Sunday is NoPo day, for example. I think we’d all be in a better mood that day.
Edit. Yikes. Way too many people taking this too seriously and missing the point.
my struggle with stuff like this is that, because i am lgbt, my existence is considered “political”.
I love the idea
Yes! We should elect officials from each community. Then have them get votes from their community and then we can get all the community heads together and decide what day it is. As long as it’s not at the start or end of the week. I think people who want that have bad genes and should get deported back to Reddit, and make Reddit pay for it.
Edit. Yikes. Way too many people taking this too seriously
People should take it seriously when anyone suggests curtailing their political speech. In this case it’s to create a little feel-good bubble for yourself, which is hardly a worthy justification. So yeah.
Touch grass
I just block the communities and users. Can’t rawdog lemmy.
If you don’t like politics, just move to a country where you don’t get to vote. Problem solved.
Sure, or you could go outside and play on some days.
Block Lemmy world politics and news subs and it will clear your feed.
It is way easier thing to do over expecting a bunch of people doing something together lol
“Missing the point”
From my POV, you’re the one who’s missing the point.
Thank you Anakin.
Just block em. By blocking a half dozen politics subs and a dozen or so chronically online leftist agendaposters I’ve really cleared the air. Makes the experience a lot more enjoyable. :)
this is why i like to create lists (on social) or bookmark certain communities instead of subscribing or following so it can easily be put aside when i need a mental health day (which, being trans, is more often than not these days :|)
Turns out there are numerous communities with no political content. One could choose to only read those, on any given day.
Do you have some suggestions?
Usually this just means “no politics I disagree with.”
Maybe you should start a No Politics campaign. Have some debates over the issue. Raise it with your leaders. Find out the impacts of the new policy. Get all of Lemmy to have a vote on it.
Listen here you little shit!
People who complain about “politics” on this platform really show their whole ass by revealing they’re actually just right-wing nutjobs or Russian trolls. So which are you?
Have you considered that some people actually get tired of the constant vitriol and negativity that accompany internet politics, even if you generally align with the prevailing opinions? Also god forbid you are actually centrist or conservative and want to be able to look at memes and tech news in peace without being reminded about The Illegitimate Colonizer State of Israel for the ten millionth time
Inconceivable
