Yes, and this topic definitely deserves attention, but the sidebar of this community asks for posts not to be on the topic of the US.
For posts related to the United States, please consider !news or !politics
Since the United States is often the most discussed country on internet spaces, we would like to have a space where other countries headlines may be posted.
That doesn’t say not to post about US topics, granted that is probably the intent. They should update the sidebar to be clear as it stands “please consider these alternatives” does not mean “do not post it here”.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !news@lemmy.world, !politics@lemmy.world

How many times are you up to now? I’ve counted at 30 times you’ve posted this so far
Is that half of the point of a social link aggregation and discussion platform?

You make a fair point. I just usually see “please consider” used as a professional euphemism for “do this”, but this isn’t a professional context.

Should this person just tell their mother over a phone conversation and hope that it spreads via word of mouth instead? What’s the alternative here?
