And yes, I know people will say block keywords and communities, but people don't understand some communities have rules and people must follow them.

I can't listen to the radio or watch any broadcast media any longer because Trump politics will not shut the fuck up.

It has invaded every bit of american discourse and separating the two will be nigh impossible until the source of the disturbance is remedied. it is literally impossible as an american right now not to be about this crisis.

so yeah i get it. but the elephant in the room is conducting the score, and we are literally drowning with only social media as a place to expunge.

and a large portion of my conflagrations towards media will be less visible.

otherwise i apologize for it when i contribute. and i hope that moderation like this helps.

what is happening in the US is of course a serious matter and I am happy we have places, communities etc. that keep on spreading awareness about such topics.

This said, like other folks have already mentioned, there are also places where you want to take a gasp of air and just have a nice laugh.

Awareness on these topics is undoubtedly important but done so in the right places.

the comment of the moderator to reason the deletion of the political post is more than reasonable and done wonderfully and it's sad to see the unfortunate response of this user, playing almost victim.

Let us continue to talk about the politics around the world and spread information and awareness BUT done in a way that allows others to also have a moment to take a breath in places where they momentarily don't want to be bombarded with x bad thing happening in y place and how this leads to z

Yea I'm avoiding american polotics as much as I can as well. Otherwise, it is EVERYTHING I see online.

Am I going mad or are the 2 stitched together images not from the same person? The comments are acting like they are though.

Top part = a mod deleting a post about American politics

Bottom part = a comment from a Lemmy person saying he has had enough with American politics on Lemmy.

They both agree? Right?

[–] halfeatenpotato@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

So the bottom image is showing a comment on a post titled "Fuck Lemmy, i'm done" which I believe contained the top image. im assuming it was posted by the person that received the mod removal message in top image. the second image is mostly focusing on a comment from that post thread from another Lemmy user that disagrees with the OP's take.

I struggle with words sometimes - idk if I made that more confusing lol.

Let me guess, European hosted? Yeah I ditched them for their suppression of pro-Luigi speech. Fuck em.

I wish I could get away from it. It’s too fucking depressing at times.

[–] DragonOracleIX@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

I feel the same way. I mostly just been using lemmy on my work breaks, and the last thing I want to see while stressed out is American politics.
