    Is it because it’s a mainly english server? I love reading whats going on in other countries but I’d mainly focus on topics which’ll immediately effect me day to day. Is it lack of people from other countries posting or am I being stupid?

      The rules of the channel state:

      Must be articles relevant to US political news. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed.

      It would be reasonable for this channel to be dominated by US politics if that was simply a consequence of the demographics of the site. It is not reasonable to appropriate the name ‘politics’ in the largest instance that also happens to be named ‘world’. This is the equivalent of someone making a channel called ‘food’ and forbid posting anything that isn’t traditional Scottish cuisine.
