You know, i do actually very often concur with these kinds of content, like the ones saying billionaires are leaches on society and governments are often used as a weapon to protect the ruling classes.
But man… when i come to lemmy i kinda want to only see memes, and funny stuff… even communities that are not niches to political content get political way too often. Like gotdammit, when i get to c/comics i just want to see funny drawings, i’m way too tired to want to see your lame class war comic…
Is that a feeling i’m the only one feeling?
edit: i think what makes it worse is that very often they’re not even funny, just literal propaganda, “good guy propaganda”, maybe, but still propaganda
edit n2: edited title and body slightly to be “open ended” on mod’s request
Yeah. But I also tend to get tied up in it. Less of it would be better for my brain, probably.
As moderator of the community !anticorporate@lemmy.giftedmc.com I very much enjoy the leftist and anarchist stuff. Thanks for asking. ;)
I’m still trying to figure out why people think that yelling about Socialism is a great idea.
The Right figured it out years ago; go along to get along. Reagan was smart enough to put the first woman on the Supreme Court and made African-American Colin Powell his Number One guy.
It’s like they’d rather lose and be able to talk about how noble the cause is.
edit =getting down voted, but no one bothers to actually explain why they feel the need to use the unpopular term.
I normally only look at communities I am subscribed to and am not subscribed to places where such things are usually posted. You could try that too.
In general I dislike communities with concepts like “pics”, “comics”, “memes”, etc., I don’t want to see just any pics or comics, I want to see ones I might find interesting. Lemmy is unfortunately not yet a big enough place that it has specialized communities for everything.
tired of seeing political content in non-political communities. I’m sure there’s a political memes community let us live in peace please.
