      I can’t find a place to define filters, only blocks for users/communities/instances. Does it exist in the default browser client and I’m missing something?

      I did this (using Sync app) about a month ago after seeing the suggestion and my god it has made a good impact on my mental health. You stil get a bit of crap about those dickheads when not directly mentioned in the title but its a big improvement.

    Infotainment media is mental illness itself, compulsive and addicted, with no memory retention nor ethical compass, it amplifies what is worst in man, it FEEDS it.

    And that’s not even considering enemy propaganda from china and russia infiltrating itself into peoples minds, trying to destabilize democracies.

    Fuck your sociopathic industry, what you made it into.

    Trump/musk/Vance says/said/claims/promises/threatens/slams/alleges, etc… add those to your voyager filter, and it’ll make your feed a lot cleaner by removing a lot of the 2016-esque BS headlines.

    The dictatorship, and the whole process of its coming into being, was above all diverting. It provided an excuse not to think for people who did not want to think anyway. I do not speak of your ‘little men,’ your baker and so on; I speak of my colleagues and myself, learned men, mind you. Most of us did not want to think about fundamental things and never had. There was no need to. Nazism gave us some dreadful, fundamental things to think about—we were decent people—and kept us so busy with continuous changes and ‘crises’ and so fascinated, yes, fascinated, by the machinations of the ‘national enemies,’ without and within, that we had no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us. Unconsciously, I suppose, we were grateful. Who wants to think?
