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?
Human life, human endeavors, human ambitions, are all inherently political. Politics is literally humans disagreeing on something. Technology is politics. Lemmy itself, the Fediverse, the software it's built on, is inherently a political act of rebellion against corporate controll of discourse. Shitposting was literally invented through political discourse, for political purposes. That's what it's always been about.
Wanting to avoid politics is a political choice. It's Chooseing to be ignorant of the world shaping forces that effect your life and the lives of everyone else.
I've got no advice for you.
You do you. But whatever you may do, will be political. There's no way around that.
I can read news through news outlets online which I do from time to time. I just want my lemmy to have tech related posts only. Your comment made me chuckle.

Join Lemmy.zip and just browse the local comms. I believe they are tech centered.
