Outside of Lemmy and other social media there is no desire to create a connection to politics at every opportunity. The propaganda machine is real
So ... Off internet?
So there are sites other than social media on the internet...
... I don't follow?
I mean, literally it feels like it's overtaken my entire life, not just online. Everything.
I was kind of into politics before, but never to this extent, even during Trump's first term bc it's just fucked up everything for me.
My job, my plans for the future, my child's future, my family that are retired and dependent on social security and Mediciad, my friends that have had health issues.
It's not propaganda. It's literally just fucked me over, and ignoring it would just be like closing my eyes, sticking my fingers in my ears and pretending reality isn't real.
If that's not the case for you, I understand and kind of envy you, but I promise its the reality for a lot of people right now
You literally just brought politics into a discussion about not bringing up politics.
Originally the discussion was about politics always being brought up on lemmy for all topics even when it's not relevant to the topic. I said that it's not necessarily that people want to bring it up, but it's hard to talk about most things without bringing it up bc it's become so invasive in so many things.
Maybe I misunderstood you, but it seemed like you were arguing it's not actually invasive it's just propaganda making it seem invasive, no?
So I was explaining how it actually has been very invasive for me in response to the statement about it being propaganda.
