They usually don't post anything else. Or comment about anything else. Just block a few to thin the herd

MODERATORS
Yeah, sometimes.
But, like Lemmy is (almost) entirely populated by people who so strongly disagreed with the political drama (either uspol or redditpol) of reddit that they took specific action about it.
It's a wonder Lemmy isn't all radical politics.
I'm tired of seing the same superficial content everywhere in general. I just accept it and try to quickly scroll past them.
That stuff is still a bit of a problem on reddit.
No, but I don't see them much.
I don't see that much of it, honestly, but I avoid image-based and political communities.
The answer is to block instances you don't want. That's how I've freed myself from the onslaught of certain special interests that I have no interest in
Reddit is about the same
A subreddit called "AdviceAnimals" is literally "Politics" but v2.
Pics is just random photo of a politician, instead of like... you know, landscape, cityscapes, planets, whatever, cool stuff. why is a picture of a politician in "Pics"?
Anarchist? No.
Communist? Yes.
Completely agree. Would be better if mods would make people repost to a political community.
Yeah. But I also tend to get tied up in it. Less of it would be better for my brain, probably.
Hey you tried posting content instead of just bitching about what you "don't like to see"?

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.
