Don't people have any hobbies, passions, or anything better to talk about? Politics and news are such boring conversations, full of intentional outrage and strife. I sure wish that we as an online community could break away from the divisive machinations of the disreputable media.

Block the news and politics communities as you encounter them. Should improve the feed for you significantly. It's happy to work with you, but you have to tell it what you want.
