It's pretty easy to filter out most political stuff on Lemmy and Reddit and similar platforms. Just subscribe to communities you like and stay out of All. If I go to All, I know what I'm in for. That's on me.

Respectfully I’d disagree. I can’t scroll through most of my meme or shitposting communities without seeing some politically flavored post, and there’s some kind of political comment on probably 85% of those posts. I get politics is an important topic but people often don’t have the class to keep politics out of the more “fun” communities. I keep to my subscribed list, block the spammers, but it’s fairly pervasive. I suppose that’s not all a bad thing as I get on social media a lot less atm. If you’ve got any additional tips though I’d love to hear them.

Always hated the subtitles of Jeremy's line here. It's all it italics except the word "like". Suggesting either every word has emphasis except that one word, which is nonsense. Or that the emphasis is on "like", which doesn't work either in this context. Plus I remember this episode, and I'm pretty sure he put emphasis on "I" and "this"…
Jeremy Clarkson:
Haha, I don't get it. Does she say "I like this"?
Yes, with very weird emphasis.
Everything is inherently political and engaging with the world around us is more healthy in the long run.
That’s not public transportation!
It is if you leave the keys in the ignition.
I've started using keyword filters more and more. You'd be surprised how few you need to hide most of the political shouting.
