Why is all of Lemmy politics? (lemmy.ml)

Seriously every other post, every sub seems like nothing but politics. It's so boring and disgusting. What made reddit great at one time was the diversity of genres and depth. Lemmy is very shallow and politically motivated it seems. I have been here since the Reddit exodus. It's always been this way.

Do different Lemmy servers have different content?

Are certain severs curated?

Where do I find the depth and deep subject matter.

Lemmy.world is highly political, just for liberalism, the standard in the western world.

Apolitical and standard-political heavily intermix.

A fish in water doesn't know it's in water, right?

That is my view of stuff like Futurology and Vaporwave if you take their politics seriously it's liberal "realism"

But if you just take the aesthetic and get rid of all that shit you simply have modern Asia lmao

This is my backup instance while SDF is down, if that's what you're talking about. It has good blocked/blocked by.

Makes sense, it's a good example though! Seems like Heideggerian back-to-the-land fantasies from the heyday of Germany 1930 👀 are more popular than Future Dystopian Asia now. I wonder why
