Stop posting US politics here. Why would anybody outside the US who comes here for “Technology” be interested in that?!
Seriously, IDGAF where it is, this post is not about technology at all.

Exactly! Why are we even downvoted for this? People with political agendas are increasingly using every popular sub for posting their shit. Don’t care. Don’t want to see it.

Then… go away to another instance, bub. The things my country does affect far more than just the united states, unfortunately. I really wish we hadn’t fucked the globe up so bad and stuck our grubby little fingers into every pot, but we did. And now you all have to hear about it. It’s not changing any time soon, either until our political situation improves and we convince our politicians to stop. Wish us luck.

I can’t prove it’s true for you, but every time I read messages like this I think “lol look at that Uber conservative with bad ideas”

I agree with you though.

The majority of english-speaking Lemmy users are from the US. Sadly, they think that they are the onle ones. More importantly, they think that US politics is important to everyone outside of the US.

Yeah us politics don’t really impact anyone else on the planet outside of the 50 states

It does affect other countries but not to the extent that people in the US think. The whole english internet is full of random election articles and posts. Yet in German news for example, barely anyone even mentions the US election. It’s a side-quote. It’s really not that important.

Is this politics?
doodledup@lemmy.world 2 months ago
You mean my post? I’m in Germany. I don’t care about US politics. President this, president that. Literally don’t care.

Well, it’s technically related

Just because the technology involves politics shouldn’t mean it can’t belong here also. Why do they have to be mutually exclusive? I’m not pushing my beliefs on anyone here.
If you read the article (which I can only assume you did), it goes into detail about a how even hackers from Black Hat and DEFCON (two well known cybersecurity conventions) were donating to a cause they believe in. It even goes on to talk about hacking voting machines.
Seems like “technology” to me.

Literally every second word is about politics, names or institutions. Technlogy was merely mentioned.

Literally everything in the world has political implications. Get over yourself

You could either set up a filter, or go full-Karen and complain about it.
I see you chose the second option.
