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?

There is no single way to completely filter all politics. Keyword filters and blocking communities are your best bet, but not entirely reliable.

Lemmy and the fediverse were pretty much created because of political reasons, so the platforms are always going to be very heavy on politics.
