Atleast until after election time IMO.

As is pointed out on every @return2ozma post, there’s other subs for that if you want to talk politics. Its clear the community is not enjoying the posts, they are heavily downvoted and spawn angry discourse every single time. Downvoting alone doesn’t effectively filter the posts because of the small amount of content overall. Even heavily controversial posts are on the front page for weeks.

This is supposed to be a place to look at funny tweets not get infuriated at the US political system every time I open my feed.

Since there’s no poll system implemented as far as I can tell…

1 Upvote = 1 vote to add rule against political posts

1 Downvote = 1 vote to keep the rules as they are

    I agree with this. I can’t believe how much banning one or two prolific assholes made my lemmy better.
