Honestly, I have started to block political keywords on Mastodon (can't do this on Lemmy unfortunately), because I am tired of the lack of nuance in online discussions and I am really not that interested in reading the same things over and over again.

People just group each other into two drawers marked "left-wing" and "right-wing" and that's it. Some go even further and block instances with people they don't completely agree with. In my opinion this stigmatisation just further and further divides people and will eventually result in less and less respect for each other (or should I say "hate towards each other"). If people would discuss more (without instantly putting words into the other side's mouth), they might see that they share common ground on some topics, even though they disagree on others.

I am pretty confident that the political believes of most of the general public can't be categorised into just two drawers. Most people probably have political views that are a mixture of different ideologies and they might not even know if those views are considered "left-wing" or "right-wing".
