Ignoring politics doesn't make them go away. You're only making your life worse for yourself if you're not saying on top of the latest political news and not voting in every election.
I use Lemmy in the same way I used Reddit back in the day: a time waster at work.
I don't need to be reminded that life is shit while I'm at work. I know that, I'm at fucking work!
I get enough political bullshit outside of Reddit/Lemmy, thanks.
Then this isn't the site for you.
Get lost.
That's true but you don't have to participate in all the click bait and more importantly not be the click bait yourself.
Who said I'm ignoring politics? And btw using Lemmy to "stay informed" on politics is as goofy as using reddit, youtube or Facebook to "stay informed". Social medias and politics is nothing but echo chambers where people leave their brains at home and go to scream at each other and be as unproductive as possible. It is brainrot.
I listen ti the news, talk to people in my real life and check official news sites when I want to get updated on the news. I don't go to gossip sites like this where mentally ill people scream about fascism in every thread.
A perfect example of their point.
