As most posts are focused on USA politics why not label as such. This community should focus on world-politics or general politic-focused discussions.
Like how parties across different countries do their campaigns, not about how Trump said, he would do a backflip if xy happened.
The “About” of this community explicitely refers to US politics, it’s a holdover from /r/politics which this seems to be meant to be a replacement for.
Yes. That’s the point. It’s ridiculous.
Especially because it’s a lemmy.world community. If it was on a US-specific instance then it’d be fine but, as it is, it’s a pretty bad case of US defaultism.
every. fucking. time.
at some point you just accept it because it’s useless internet shit and there are plenty of other communities that also focus on politics from all over the world.
it’s a plural word yall. a single plural word and the community that got in first originally made it for US politics. they called it politics.
just the same as people adapt on the fly to social media censoring by saying stupid shit like un-aliving because that’s just the way that people adapted.
is what it is homie. if it isn’t, be the change you want to see in the community and start posting nonstop politics from other countries.
better to accept the current solution or be a part of the new solution than only uselessly complaining.
