I guess it is a consequence of the Reddit migration where the habit is just keeping the old community name. But having C/Politics being US only on Lemmy.world, an instance that aims to be international (hence the name), seems weird to me.
Would have been cool to give up this assumption that everything is related to US by default when moving away from Reddit. I mean, even the canadian political news of Lemmy.ca is CanadaPolitics.
Many times I’ve seen things about the end of the us To be treated like the end of the world. Some time legislation that would be considered irrelevant in other countries. Some times things about the collapse of us government. Economical issues that would that implied improvement somewhere else are treated as a collapse matter because it would threat us (or west) hegemony.
I’m on kbin and when the world news mod here decided to allow US news, I went and made my own news with blackjack and hookers no US news, @worldwithoutus.
Yes, I am specifically cutting it out, like it says on the tin. I get plenty of news about that world power from all the other news communities I subscribe to.
This is the great thing about the fediverse, there are several world news communities that do include American news if that’s what you want and you don’t want multiple news subscriptions.
It annoyed me on reddit as well.
“R/collapse” is just about us collapse, for example
