Why is *all* of Lemmy filled with Anti Israel content?
-
Are you asking why Lemmy has a lean towards political activism? Why the political activism is so heavily focused on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict? Or why they've chosen the side that they have within that conflict?
All three are completely different questions, and all of them are complicated and also pretty much impossible to answer with any real confidence. But they're interesting.
Anyways, which is the biggest thrust of your question?
I am talking about apolitical communities, or those that are supposed to be apolitical at least, i apologize if I haven't made it clear enough in my original thread.

Lemmy doesn't have many enforced apolitical communities. Because even the meaning of apolitical is contentious and arguably political.

There is no such thing as an "apolitical" community - not here on the fediverse or anywhere else.

@JohnDClay
No if you just happen to be trans. Yes if you're doing activism about it. -

Another example is fictional character relationships. Are the lesbian relationships in arcane political for example?

I would argue the meme is non political, since it's just a pun on the word. Hence why two different people can have different views on what is political or not.

Prove it
@FitikNo. You can prove it by providing one example of an "apolitical" community.
Shouldn't be too hard for you, eh?
