    I am trying to not be online at all unless it’s some kind of niche old hobby forum full of aspie Christian girls like lotro mmo forums or some craft community

    At some point in life social media outrage culture gets incredibly, unbearably tiring. I would sooner die than post on xitter. I’d sooner commit sepuku with a blunt kitchen knife than genuinely engage in politics again anywhere.

    I even stopped trolling because that was just an intermediary step to free yourself out of that cesspit.

    Every second on strange lemmy/reddit communities and you become more and more incompatible with irl society and that’s not the path I want to go

      I actually really enjoy engaging with politics in Switzerland, maybe because I do it almost entirely offline. There’s some really rewarding (and important) discussions to be had, if you manage to talk about specific policies and issues, while avoiding the ideology prejudice stuff, especially if you’re talking to people you disagree with.

      My special trick is never having even looked at any tweets because the stupid website tells you to make an account every two seconds
