    There’s some nuance in that

    a) I treat US politics as entertainment for the last ten years — seeing Trump crush over Mamdani, are you kidding, it’s top kek;

    b) I like to know the zeitgeist on the platform where I spend time;

    and c) US politics are in almost every major community anyway, regardless of its topic — just like on Reddit.
