It'd be cool, and fun, if all of Lemmy had a certain no-politics day.

Let's say Sunday is NoPo day, for example. I think we'd all be in a better mood that day.
Edit. Yikes. Way too many people taking this too seriously and missing the point.
No, I'm not trying to suppress your free speech.
No, this post is not oppressive of your political views in anyway.
No, this doesn't have any baring whatsoever on what country you're from.
If your response to this shower thought is a four paragraph rage you are already lost. Why are you in showerthoughts?
No, this does not have anything to do with subscriptions or blocking communities.
If you're incapable of light jokes then no, you should not comment.
And finally, no, this is not a serious request post. I can't believe that needs to be explained for half the people here...
You're viewing a single thread.
This is already possible, on any day of the week you desire, without affecting anybody else’s preferences. I assume you’ve subscribed to certain communities that you enjoy. If so, you simply switch your view to the Subscribed feeds. You can switch back anytime you want to All. As a bonus, you could even limit yourself to viewing only the communities on your instance by using Local.
I know that comes off a little snarky, but I don’t know what you do or don’t know, so I’m going with the assumption you don’t know. Otherwise, as others have suggested, you can block communities and instances, and also add keywords to filter out specific topics.
Edit: looks like it’s a feature request for the webui. I know Mlem has a keyword filter.
The issue is not politics posting. It's politics posting in non-political subs. Like people posting about trump on this community and calling it a shower thought
I’d say the real issue then is that the mods should consider amending the rules to explicitly disallow political posts.
I concur
