It's not that every community on lemmy.world needs to be international. There are no rules that suggest that. It's first come, first serve unless you can convince the admins or mods of the community otherwise. I also do not think majority rules should apply here aside from a petition type approach where you can just show the mods there's a strong feeling. I don't think forcing anything is the approach. So unless you already talked to them and they said no and this is simply a petition approach as a second go, I don't know what you really want to happen aside from venting (which is also legitimate). But considering you're suggesting that things should change, I'm wary of the way in which you think these changes should be allowed to be affected.
I mean, we did a whole song about it like 30 or 40 years ago, “We are the world…”.
There's a Canadian Politics community on Lemmy.World too. It's very small but that can change!
I just had the idea of making the same post. It's misleading
You could always sub to https://lemmy.world/c/news@kbin.social - kbin news magazine that has worldwide coverage
Same issue on a few other c's - maybe we need to add "_nonUS" or "_US" to lemmy/c names, or wait until Lemmy adds something like flairs.
There are other politics subs, this is the most popular. You could find a quieter sub that follows what you want.
