In your edit where you say that many people take this too seriously, that's you taking it too seriously. Stop being so sensitive. Don't have a hissy fit. We're all just playing around, right?
Turns out there are numerous communities with no political content. One could choose to only read those, on any given day.
Upvoted because this comments section is nuts
Just block em. By blocking a half dozen politics subs and a dozen or so chronically online leftist agendaposters I've really cleared the air. Makes the experience a lot more enjoyable. :)
Did you have a day in mind? Does it cater to only one country? Is there something to learn from that ?
I feel like the entire comment section just proves the op's point ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm guessing this site would be a dud on that day, since most of yall have about as much charisma as an old shoe.
I like how everyone here is missing the point entirely. I don't want yet another heated comments section. Why is it to complicated to not have everyone dying on some random hill.
If you don’t like politics, just move to a country where you don’t get to vote. Problem solved.
