You’re starting to get it. Politics is not just a very boring television channel. It’s power transactions at the highest levels and it affects basically every thing. To even be able to whine about having to pay attention to politics is a great privilege.
Comment on Iran's shitposts were obliterated, too!

Not on lemmy. I spent weeks blocking all the stupid bullshit and now it just infects communities that used to be good. Getting close to blocking this one too.

Be careful. I’ve recently been informed that lemmy is 100% political and I should find my shitposts elsewhere.

This is a sacred place. How dare they do this.

No. Politicians from all walks have bombed others to kingdom come, while good shitposting is just good shitposting.

Inherited wealth nepotism knows no bounds. Human intelligence is not hereditary, wealth is. That cancer is terminal.

Nope. As long as our lives get destroyed by rich strangers we will never meet, everything will be political. Trying to force that is just head in the sand.

I know but how far does it need to go? How long until my kids are force fed shit about some American political bollocks on their Minecraft server?
TrickDacy@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
That seems like a slippery slope argument to me. Pretty unlikely.

But when they do, will he be able to say “we’re playing Minecraft here, can we cool it with USA politics?” Without being told to get his head out the sand? I mean, theres rich people he’ll never meet or influence in any way destroying the world, itd be pretty irresponsible to allow him a space to disassociate with it.

Me not giving a fuck about your banana republic regime’s internal musical chairs soap opera is also political.
TrickDacy@lemmy.world 17 hours ago
Sort of. Mostly seems like nihilism or denialism.

I don’t know the names of any of the people in the OP pic.
And the fact they were supposedly fired had absolutely no effect on US politics in relation to my life.
I bet you couldn’t name a single effect those firings had on your life, as well.
