1. US people have the unique trait of not shutting the fuck up about their politics online
  2. getting rid of US politics will also get rid of most non-US politics due to all political conversation eventually ending up US politics conversations due to the above point
    • it would also be a nice indicator to those who are willing to read the room
  3. singling out US politics instead of a blanket “no politics” rule cleverly avoids the problem of “but what is/everything is political” debates that are just waiting to take over from the politics debates themselves
  4. election year or something idk I’m not from there

obviously this does not apply to communities whose explicit purpose is to talk politics

the internet is losing places for creatures to be silly little meow meows :3 in peace, and we need to do something, literally anything, about it

    As an American Im totally offended and I agree we should do this but I also need politics injected directly into my veins to survive so you are also a terrorist and killing me by doing this. Our country should stop you from doing this by taking over your country and pretending there’s no oil there. Also we can threaten you with an orange man.

    But yes its an election year for us and I already need a break. Seriously just lock me in a padded room with no media access please thank you.
