It has become incredibly political. It always has had a heavy political aspect, but now it's just about completely impossible to avoid.

Even a subreddit like /r/nba has become super political. Literally impossible.
Even r/Lego went through a phase where minifigures mocking prominent Republicans and Donald Trump were posted. It has since quieted down but the mods took an obviously hands-off approach and it was likely they agreed with the message and had no qualms about the divisive content.
