Please. All of this is mostly US politics. Please do not hijack “world news” to mean whatever new shit Desantis or someone else said this week. Every other magazine/community/whatever is already full of that shit. Please.

Please. Please. Please.

US politics already swamp out most of the content on the entire fediverse. It may seem like the world to you but there’s almost 200 countries on this planet that are not the US.

PLEASE DO NOT.

Thank you.

    They’re trying to defend their choice of community name (arguably not doing a good job in my opinion). A lot of people have been complaining in other communities and I think they’re getting defensive. Personally I think they chose poorly but ultimately it’s not my call, so whatever. Only ones who can force them to change would be lemmy.world mods. They’re saying there’s no such thing as generic politics and that it’d all be local to somewhere so their claim to the name is fine (at least that’s my interpretation based on what you said). Again, I disagree with the quality of their choice but I accept that it’s their choice.
