I just remember a time when social media didn’t seem to have so many political stuff
No, that’s impossible
That stinks
Politics are affecting increasing amounts of people, it makes sense that there would be more discussion of it.
No, politics is everything. All subjects are political. It is the nature of being social animals. Talking about now we should operate together is basically our thing.
I disagree. In my 12-page rebuttal to your statement I will present evidence to
Politics and social media both have a major impact on your life. Imo it’s impossible to disconnect (pun intended) them from each other. Social media is basically the 21st century version of the town square. People talk about politics, that’s just how it is
Exactly. Politics is people debating and discussing their competing visions for how the world should be. Beyond close family connections, social media is for connecting large numbers of people. Most of the questions that are relevant to large numbers of people are political in nature.
Unsubscribe from political communities and people who talk a lot about politics, done. It’s up to you.
Problem is, it seems to flood into any community. Just annoying
I GOT tired of some of the political subs on reddit, All they post is what goofy thing trump did, and not what he is actually doing, and i suspect theres a hidden agenda why they are pushing like MSM does.
When was this? I’ve been on facebook since day one, and MySpace / forums before that.

No, you remember when what you saw on social media wasn’t political. Now you’re older and pay attention to it.
Social media was political since day 1.

I’d be happy to just have it move past Trump… once and for all.
I’ve been posting and chatting with people on RedNote or Xiaohongshu for about a month or so and there’s very little politics content there, which is refreshing! There’s a few Americans who can’t kick the habit, but I usually either block em or tell the app not to show me content like that and it’s pretty good about it.
RedNote or Xiaohongshu
Of course they don’t talks about politics. Their government will hit you hard if you say the wrong thing.
Hey, if OP wants social media without politics, that’s where you’ll find it. I get it. It can be tiresome to see every single media source just chockablock with political horrors. Sometimes you want a break.
