This is another example of US centrism.

This is politics@lemmy.WORLD.

From the name there is no indication that this wouldn’t be about world politics.

Please rename the community or change the subject to world politics and create a community like uspolitics@lemmy.world.

Edit: For all those saying “Well, just post stuff that’s not about the US”:

The issue is that currently the rules forbid exactly that.

Rules

[…]

  1. Must be articles relevant to US political news.

This is the point that should change. It’s not about how many posts will then be US-specific or not, it’s just about whether you are allowed to post about non-US-stuff.

    Hopefully it will die and something like /geopolitics will take over.

    I call it RCS (reddit clone syndrome).

    Rather than let this place grow organically and have its own traditions and in jokes a group of people seem determined to make a clone of the place they recently left.
