If you don't want politics involved, just add the name of every country.
Also "migrant," (gets rid of immigrant too) "refuge," (gets rid of refugee) "asylum," "vaccine," "climate change," and "global warming."
Also with "Israel" and "Zionism" in your list, add "bomb," "missile," "dea" (for dead and death).
Good additions

Ignore the words. Use your time to go outside and grab a bunch of strangers to play softball or frisbee or something. That is the biggest thing that'll fuck up all the young fascist "tech bros".
Why drone?

Combine that with blocking communities and you're set
If you need time away from these topics for mental health, then this is can be a good idea. I wish you all the best.
If you have other, quality news sources that's fine too.
If it's just because it's "annoying" and you do not want to engage, then bear in mind that you are simply burying your head in the sand. Politics are not simply words, and will affect you and your loved one's lives and rights.
The leopards come for everyone's faces eventually.
Here's something I do. I block specific communities, and some people for the extreme amount of rage baiting political bullshit.
My list was getting pretty long tell I started doing that.
Also I block specific websites so they don't show up like CNN. Keywords are a good start but on Voyager I have actively just blocked (or is it muted?) people/instances/communities that are rage baiting political shit.
Always remember though, it's a privilege to not be able to interact with politics. I do on my own terms for my own mental health. But avoiding it not good as politics is literally anything that humans do. I just refuse to let the toxic 24/7 news bullshit get to me. As I'm one of people they actively target for "existing".
Also I blocked YouTube website because its constantly just people uploading there videos to get more views.
*realizes what sub hes in...
i'll change my angry downvote to a disgruntled upvote
must be nice being able to afford to not care about these things
It's so nice
You can add plenty more, if you want no politics you need to evenly cover both political aisles because stuff will creep in that you didn't want anyway.

I'm having sooo little political content without any setup on my end, probably thanks to how my instance is configured
No matter how much you add, some things will still slip through because people give their posts stupid titles
Definitely, I just give those ones a quick user block

Making the assumption that you are getting your news somewhere else, not just burying your head in the sand, what are some sources that you, or anyone else who takes this approach, using to stay informed?
