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.

Cute animal pictures inevitably leads to conversations like:

Pitbulls should be banned!
Cats are an invasive species that are terrible for the environment and you shouldn't let them outside
Vegan arguments against pets
Vegan arguments against feeding pets meat

Politics is just turning life into a legal model, the way physics turns the universe into a mathematical model. To ban politics is to ban life itself. It is incredibly naive to think you can do so.

Maybe you could ban US-cdntric discussion, but even that seems like a fool's errand. We live in a globally connected world and the US is one of the most dominant forces in that world. Like it or not, US politics impacts the entire planet.
