Im normally the one wishing for less politics on Lemmy, but at some point you have to draw a line and define what you actually mean by "too political." Of course, then you'd need to have someone curate media just for you that adheres to that standard... because simple keywords aint gonna cut it. Orrrr, I guess you could just cut off ALL new media.
This isnt some petty political scuffle. This is a trade war that is currently crashing the global economy. China cutting off minerals isn't really "politics", per se, at least in the way most people mean it. It is war: An economic war that looks increasingly likely to end up in the shooting kind.
