How soon until RP offers me the ability to ignore certain topics or groups?

Am I asking too much? I get that most other social media platforms don't offer such a feature, but the political threads are taking over like a plague and many times make up at least 2 of the 5 "Trending Discussions."
Or will this continue to be left to the individual members? Maybe there needs to be some sort of subdomain for politics.

SGT (Join to see) I agree that there should be a way to ignore certain topics. While I do not "feed the trolls" on topics that I do not care for, I sometimes miss the ones that I do care about because they are buried under the ones I don't. The ability to customize one's news feed would be nice. I wonder, from a coding stand point, how hard it would be to implement.

What is forcing you to read the topics? If you don't like what is being discussed, move on to a thread that interests you.

Read this again, SFC: "many times make up at least 2 of the 5 "Trending Discussions."
That has nothing to do with me clicking a link to read the thread. However, it has everything to do with such topics cluttering my timeline and homepage where I could be gaining exposure to new topics I've yet to explore on RP.

I guess that is a fair point. I use my tablet to browse and it's too easy to quickly thumb through the site to see the topics that are current.
