I guess it is a consequence of the Reddit migration where the habit is just keeping the old community name. But having C/Politics being US only on Lemmy.world, an instance that aims to be international (hence the name), seems weird to me.

Would have been cool to give up this assumption that everything is related to US by default when moving away from Reddit. I mean, even the canadian political news of Lemmy.ca is CanadaPolitics.

There's gonna be a lot of culture shock from authoritarians throughout the fediverse it would seem. Some people don't know what to do with a little freedom.

    People are generally good with having their own freedom, where they get outraged is when they discover that other people have freedom. Obviously this situation can't be allowed so rules need to be made, and enforced, so those other people have to conform.
