  Literally everything is politics.

  People need to grow up and actually address real world problems if it makes them uncomfortable talking about them in meme form.

    I think at least some of the complaining about politics on Lemmy is being misinterpreted.

    As to my personal opinion: I really don’t mind political memes, polotical news articles posted and discussed, political discussion threads, etc. I like to participate in those every now and again. What I don’t really like (but tastes may differ on this one) is that sometimes posts that are just silly/funny/weird/beautiful/entertaining get highjacked or derailed in the comments section when out of nowhere a (to me mostly unrelated) libs vs tankies or left vs right discussion appear.

    A lot of us are well aware that there are A LOT of real world problems, but we come to these internet forums to blow off some steam and just to have a chill time. To have a break from it all, if you will.

    I’ve made the following point in another post: yes, in a way everything is politics. But some of these lemmings are capable of (and this is an illustration, not a particular situation I witnessed) highjacking a post with a picture of a beautiful sunrise and say “if it were up to politician A from party X we would never again have a sunrise in country Z…”.

    Politics are important. And the day we stop talking about it is a very bad day for democracy, I think most - if not all - of us will agree. But maybe just let us have some lighthearted non-divisive topics as well?

    Nobody is “uncomfortable.” Just unamused. Some people just want to look at memes and be amused. Politics are not fun.
