Welcome to all not wanting to vote, not able to vote or just annoyed by the US presidential election taking over Lemmy and other social media.

Coming here to argue about voting will result in a ban.

Be kind to each other & follow the server rules.

Be specifically aware that not everyone here is from the so called USA.

I am happy that you post here @stabby_cicada@slrpnk.net and at the same time I dont want this community to have such a strong US politics focus. Because electoralism isnt just an US based problem and the discourse should be more global

I'm in the United States. I'm not going to bullshit about politics in other countries when I don't know the facts on the ground on more than a surface level.

Should I quit posting until someone comes along who can knowledgeably post about other countries?

Or confine myself to discussions about electoralism in theory instead of ranting about the examples that I know and hate in practice?

Not being sarcastic. These are not rhetorical questions. I can rant about political bullshit anywhere - you're the host here and it's polite to follow your rules. What do you want me to do to make this community more like what you want it to be?
