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.
If the instance matters so much then perhaps this sub should be for politics local to wherever the server is physically sitting. And for that matter every sub should be the same. If I want to watch Asian porn then I should be expected to go to an instance located in Asia and then when the sub is named “porn” then I better not get my balls bunched up if I find non-Asians. When was the last time you decided to visit or not visit a website because you first had to ascertain where the server resided or what the domain was called?
