Don’t people have any hobbies, passions, or anything better to talk about? Politics and news are such boring conversations, full of intentional outrage and strife. I sure wish that we as an online community could break away from the divisive machinations of the disreputable media.
Why are you subscribed to news and politics communities if you don’t want to see any of that content? Or, why don’t you just block those communities? Are you suggesting those communities just shouldn’t exist? Don’t make the rest of the fediverse cater to your whims because you’re too lazy to curate your own feed.
