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
[…]
- 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.
I see US politics as the biggest reality show ever produced. Nothing is about governing just shitting on the people from the other side.
All articles and discussion are about what the other side is doing wrong (hint: everything).

Thanks for the new word. Interesting etymology.
Exactly what I thought.
Thats is politics on the same level as me calling you a stupid poopface. Political in a sense that everything is political but nothing more.
