On dhat note, dhe English language is kwite inkonsistent on letter pronunsiashion. I think it kould do widh a refresher on how letters work or just do a round of simplifikashion on sounds instead of being a Frankenstein fokusing on where the word kame from.

I think I mixed an argument here, I'm arguing names matching content. For instance it would be very legal and very cool to rename this one "US politics".
The other one is organicly caused as you say, but I think the problem lies on Statians who need to calm down on the home voting, they already have a !usa@lemmy.ml for that purpose.

You are arguing what happens, I am arguing what should happen, but you're right it's no harder than skiping to a new one.

Ah, you might be right, that's where I'm subscribed. It is still conceited to not put US in the name, but I'll just block it and not think of it again.

E: Oh, that one is also filled with US drama. Guess I gotta put "world" in front then.

In most democracies you don't have the toxic two party split ala US. There are intelligent conservaties, but the Republican party is ... kinda wild.

I think it was general politics in the begining, as the name implies. Holy fucking shit mericans aren't building a good rep with this one.

True, it's not vague, but it is a general concept which makes it conceited to default it to "my place" when two extra letters would make it clear.

Because it is named the very vague and general name in lingua franca: politics. I guess other countries will just use their own language for politics so the most impacted are other English 1. language nations. Tho one would think of world politics first on the internet.

And what should I call the politics com for my country then? The complaint is that this is US politics.

The creator is a Netherlender.

Yeah, I get more of a cyperpunk dystopia vibe.

This seems more than mildly interesting?

Russia is such a bucket-crab.

Nah, the corrupt FIFA can go fuck themselves.

Yes, there's a reason for why competition is gender based; pitting the genders against each other, men will outclass at speed and shooting power.
The study shows that the quality of the same clips are percieved differently when ruling for gender.

I wonder if they will see me coming.

Alright, time to test the block function guys.

It would be useful if people actually used it to burrow trolls, sealions and irrelevant comments as intended, but as I've seen people can't be trusted with that because as you say: It becomes a "disagree" instead, that targets everything that people disagree with. It gets inane on political topics where useless comments for the right tribe gets immensely upvoted. "Covfefe" Yes, very informative. There could be alternate vote for agreement, funny, or troll mark.

Yes, the wings aren't cohesive things. The far right seems to have a more armed presence tho.

Moral panic? What? It's about healthy community dialogue and slightly how downvotes impacts the psyche.
If someone tells you why they dislike something you like, you're not doing anyone a favor by downvoting it.
