I am not someone who follows/has interest in Geo-politics. In lemmy homepage majority of posts are political. Those lemmy’s I do not expect to have political posts in them like c/technology, c/memes, c/lemmyshitposts, their top posts are related to politics. My subscribed, local, and all is full of it. Is there a way to filter them out?

    Part of this is a misunderstanding of how communities work - C/technology in lemmygrad or hexbear will be explicitly political. Those instances are political. .

    There are like 15 different C/memes in the Fediverse, and many of them include a political component.

    Also life is political. The media and topics you think are not political are very much political – they just reinforce the status quo.
