 Fair, but it was clearly an anti-left comment you made. 

And remember, anything one micrometer to the right is now admission of being far right.

i know there are more dimentions than right and left, but in modern discorse, any attack on the left is admission of being right of left.

It may be stupid, but we have to work our assumptions based on the context of current culture.

Baised on the above, I claim defense that my comment is not "asinine"

That said, I don't care so much to defend myself, but to engage in discourse.
 
 It wasn’t an anti anything, lol. You’re talking about getting right leaning people out of your feed, I just pointed out that they’re there because you put them there. If they’re using a tag you follow, just mute the individuals and carry on. 
 But this applies in the global feed., not just the follows.  I'm not against seeing specific politics, I'm looking for more variety. 
 Ahh, well you didn’t mention that. I try to stay out of the global feed. 😝

I consider it all of the leftovers that I didn’t want, lol. 
 Hah, I like to look at global to find new folks to follow. 
 I don’t follow anyone, I use hashtags of my interests. That way, my feed is only filled with my interests and people who share those interests.

Granted, this only works with Damus, as all of the other clients use your following lists to fill your feed. If I open primal, I don’t see anything in my feed because I’m not following anyone, hahaha. 
 I may have to try that. I like seeing things that aren't my interest in order to expand my understandungs.

I use amethist.' , but yea, I should try Damus to see how that's like.
