Seconded. Limit your screentime and filter out any communities and social media that seem like a broken record. Energy is a must if the 50501 movement is going to continue.
I can't recommend going to a protest enough. It's incredibly reaffirming to have a crowd around you that believes the same thing you do.
people with their one liners like "i'm tired boss" need to do one

I don't even live in america and get constantly bombarded with american news every time I open lemmy
There's a time and a place for news from outside of my country but I don't want to be bombarded with it 24/7 qnd the word filters don't help for titles that don't mention anything specific or are too generic
What was the term? "Flooding with shit" so you don't take anything seriously anymore and when they do something, they can say I told you so
Flood the zone?
Thanks. I knew something was missing
I like yours better.
Also shock and awe
Content filter "trump" "musk" "Israel" Lemmy becomes a much nicer place to visit than the cesspool it currently is
Yeah. Its not perfect but filtering primary news topics makes casual browsing much more chill
I can't find a place to define filters, only blocks for users/communities/instances. Does it exist in the default browser client and I'm missing something?
Yes, as someone who doesn’t use third party apps, I’d like to know this too.
I did this (using Sync app) about a month ago after seeing the suggestion and my god it has made a good impact on my mental health. You stil get a bit of crap about those dickheads when not directly mentioned in the title but its a big improvement.
Ignorance is bliss.
I wonder how long he would last if everyone switchted off
You ever meet a kid who escalates when ignored?
Musk is that kind of kid, guaranteed.
He literally forced everyone on twitter to read his shit. Now he's at the core of the US government, already taking shots at the media. Take a guess.
This is just the beginning. He's going to force the government to run through twitter. Then you'll only be able to pay your bills through twitter. Then your national ID will be authorized through twitter. Then all banking through twitter. It's coming.
So basically like in… Trump voice …"CHEINA!"
Yep! Twitter is going to be Weixin. I'll go to my grave calling it twitter in a pathetic display of disapproval.
If Elon can deadname his own child we can deadname his indeed very dead platform.
He's an illegal immigrant who literally wasn't elected or approved by congress
Reminds me this gem from 8 years ago that aged like a fine wine
So, so tired...
Infotainment media is mental illness itself, compulsive and addicted, with no memory retention nor ethical compass, it amplifies what is worst in man, it FEEDS it.
And that's not even considering enemy propaganda from china and russia infiltrating itself into peoples minds, trying to destabilize democracies.
Fuck your sociopathic industry, what you made it into.
The dictatorship, and the whole process of its coming into being, was above all diverting. It provided an excuse not to think for people who did not want to think anyway. I do not speak of your ‘little men,’ your baker and so on; I speak of my colleagues and myself, learned men, mind you. Most of us did not want to think about fundamental things and never had. There was no need to. Nazism gave us some dreadful, fundamental things to think about—we were decent people—and kept us so busy with continuous changes and ‘crises’ and so fascinated, yes, fascinated, by the machinations of the ‘national enemies,’ without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us. Unconsciously, I suppose, we were grateful. Who wants to think?

Trump/musk/Vance says/said/claims/promises/threatens/slams/alleges, etc... add those to your voyager filter, and it'll make your feed a lot cleaner by removing a lot of the 2016-esque BS headlines.
Slams! Bashes! Spanks!
He needs the Homer Stokes treatment. He basically is Homer Stokes.
Me too
have a rest
That's the point
