LOL, but actually given the horrible state the world is in, let alone The USA, politically, if your not at least once a week, then what is wrong with you?

If you have the privilege to ignore “politics” while people are gravely suffering in real life, is it so hard to just ignore it in your Lemmy feed?

Can’t the silly showerthoughts community just be a silly community?

If you don’t think about politics in the shower, you are privileged enough not to have shitty policy directly affecting your life. This isn’t the case for most of us, but lucky you I guess.

Phrased poorly, really just mean posting political shit in an inherently silly showerthoughts community. Its in every other instance in every other community all the time, cant shower thoughts just be goofy?

Chippys_mittens@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Think about whatever you want, I just get bummed when showerthoughts is used to push politics instead of silly shit you think of in the shower.

if you dont think about politics in the shower youre detached from reality and burying your head in the sand
and your statement is political. youre thinking politics in the shower.

If you mean to say: there’s too much politically charged posts on here, despite rule number 3 being ‘No politics’; I wholly agree.

Or you live in real life and are affected by society

Honestly, what a monumentally shit take from OP
There are people out there losing family members, many of them forever, over politics
There are millions of people who don’t feel safe leaving their house right now due to politics
Millions more worried about straight up losing their house and everything they own over politics
People worried about where their next meal is coming from
People worried if they’re gonna be able to afford to continue to fucking live
Others wondering if there’s even going to be much of a world left to live in
Many people thinking about politics are doing so because they do not get a choice. No one wants to think about any of that, they’re being forced to by the reality unfolding around them.

Yeah they basically just told on themselves as an unserious and/or sheltered nonparticipant in society
Essentially antisocial

Moreso just hate seeing political takes in a showerthoughts community.
