It's the Internet during US elections.
Even outside the elections, it is far too US-centric. I mean, it is lemmy.world after all.
I'm sorry if I sound more pissed off than I actually am, but it is indeed quite a bit annoying.
You and me both, but I think it's up to us to publish content that's not us-centric.
Exactly, it's an open platform everyone can participate
Unfortunately, the fate of the world kinda rests on the outcome of this election. From Ukraine and Israel at a minimum, to severe climate change and WW3 at the extreme end. I hate it too, but this is just too big to ignore.
I wonder if there can be more than one important issue effecting our future at a time...
Pick any issue and both Trump and Kamala are on the wrong side of it.
A 20% tariff on imported goods?
More tax breaks for the rich?
Come on man. Harris is against those.
So being for a tax break for the rich is wrong. And being against a tax break for the rich is wrong? What other option even is there?
So post non-US centric content.
Yes and the us runs a good chunk of it
Lol take a look at the world my friend.
