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.

In my opinion, the mods chose the name because US politics is the only news that matters to them. They could very easily open themselves up to other countries' political news but they resist that. It just seems stupid to act like the US is the main character.

    When I grew weary of a specific perspective in certain places, and wanted to see a broader diversity... I started threads with citations from that viewpoint/fact-set.

    It's not the mods job to feed us threads. Their job is to keep things civil and to be fair to everyone who choses to participate.
