So if something bad happens in any country, from any government abusing it's citizens, that is also not allowed? Because that's not how it seems to work. It's specifically US politics posts that get removed.
If you are posting your "other country politics" in a comm that says "no political posts" then yes your post should be removed from that comm. Go post it in one of the 23 quadrillion political communities instead. You want me to post about FedoraKDE issues I'm having in c/pics or c/EpsteinFiles, or should I post it in one of the 40 godzillion Linux comms?
Probably the reason you're seeing mostly US politics get removed is because they won't shut the fuck up and stop posting it in unrelated comms or without checking if someone else beat them to it thus making theirs a redundant double in a comm. People from like, Luxembourg or fucking Cambodia, just aren't doing that type of thing. And tbh if they were it might slip by on language barrier alone.
You seem bitter. Hope whatever's bothering you gets better.
Me too, I'll lyk when y'all start following the rules and keeping politics where it belongs and not where it doesn't.
Yeah, most of the time it is US politics getting removed, because 10,000 other NA users have already posted about the same thing lol.
