I feel you - gotta be careful who you follow and what you like if you want to avoid politics because so many of us are here fleeing other platforms over political issues.
I have another account where I only follow non political feeds so I can have my eyes bleached periodically.
I selected topics upon account creation that had nothing to do with politics and it leaked in. Absolutely impossible to avoid anything politically driven. It makes me sick. So the best way to handle it is to block literally everything I see.
Not 💯 but, It might be because of the topics you chose when you first created your account or you've boosted the algorithms for political posts by liking and commenting. This happens often to me on IG. I'm almost convinced I'll start seeing similar nature posts because I reacted to this post.
