People are drawn to trainwrecks. The weirdest part of living outside the US is the number of people who still obsess over the US.

Europe is trying to solve their problems while we are just throwing fuel on the fire.

Are you sure? Seems like the news magazines are very centered on Israel and Palestine.

  1. A lot of English speaking people live in the USA. ~340M people.

  2. I see tons of news about the major world powers, and there just happens to be a lot going on in the USA rn.

I made my account so I could block all the "news" /politics , which are mostly US news/politics XD. There is no community for my country here as far as I know, and if there is, and it's anything like it's counterpart on reddit, then also no thanks.

What do you mean?

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 day ago

Because most users of lemmy are from the US.
