You're right, being against fascism isn't 'too much politics'. However, "This is an antifa instance" being the first thing on the front page of the instance certainly is. It shows that the admin's political stance is important enough to them that it's the first thing they want everyone seeing. Between this, the AMA on reddit, and across the instances, the dev's political leanings seem to be inserted wherever and whenever possible.
Nothing's wrong with politics. Hell, I even share very similar views to those here, I just think that kind of discussion is better suited to a politics-based community, and not as multiple posts plastered on the front page.
