Basically my entire feed is like swiss cheese due to all the articles about Trump and Musk.

Does someone actually enjoy consuming this stuff all day every day? I can’t possibly imagine Lemmy ever becoming popular among the normies if this is what they’d need to deal with.

    sticking your head in the sand and hoping it doesn’t effect you until it’s over is probably not the best way to handle it.

    Consuming anger inducing political articles all day every day is probably not the best way to handle it either. For most people, this likely has far greater effect on their mental wellbeing than what these guys are doing policywise. On Reddit, there atleast was a slim chance that you could make an convincing enough argument that someone would drop their support for them but good luck finding such person on Lemmy. We’re preaching to the choir here.

      anger inducing political articles all day every day

      Ah yes, those two whole posts out of four about politics in your screenshot really fill up the day 🙄

      You literally have the “solution” in hand, yet still insist on whining about being “forced” to confront the reality around you. Just live with having it blocked instead of trying to force everyone else to stop sharing important news and information.
