When someone replies to this and says 'stop making everything political' they mean to tell you to stop challenging the status quo (lemmy.world)

You're very fortunate that you can take the time to ignore those politics. For many people, these issues affect them to such an extent that they can't be ignored at all. As for the amount of memes challenging the status quo here... well... if you're on Lemmy, the status quo didn't work for you either.

What has their constant fixation on these problems achieved? I have problems that affect me every day, I can still fuck around on the internet or whatever for a while and get my mind off it. Constantly immersing yourself in this stuff is not healthy.

Exactly, armchair meme politics does literally nothing and it's the only "activism" half these chuckle fucks have ever taken part in.
