Why can’t the people we vote for represent us?
That is easy (for the US at least). Politicians in the US doesn’t get elected by a majority.

Death penalty, but more likely death in combat while trying to oust them from society. Like was done in WWII. These fuckers aren’t going anywhere voluntarily, it will take violence to remove them from society.
That is not a “scientific fact”. That is just something somebody wrote for the likes.
Type K. I mean how can you say no to that face?
There are many ways to suppress speech.
While defunding NPR and PBS.
Very low. Goat meat is expensive.
That is silly logic.
Also the past 50 years has not been all improvement, the global warming crisis has steadily grown worse to name the most obvious. The economic crisis following the results of that global warming is also just going to get worse. This will lead to more political crises as politics will get steadily radicalised and authoritarian.
Those examples you mention are pretty insignificant compared to the global warming crisis we are experiencing now. Reading history won’t really help, because we have never faced what we have faced now in human history: manmade global warming in an industrialised, highly specialised society.
Excessive calories are bad for you.
Don’t worry. The energy usage from this will significantly help warm the planet, so it will all soon be over.
No, most English speakers on the planet are not from the US. In fact most English speakers on the planet are secondary speakers, and not even from an English speaking country.
English is used on the internet as an international language which enables people from all over the world to understand each other.
No, English speakers will talk about anything because speaking English on the internet says nothing about where you are from. It is the international language of the internet, not tied to any specific country.
The majority of English speakers on the internet are non-Americans. In fact the majority of English speakers on the internet are not even from an English speaking country. That is because English is used as the international language on the internet.
So no, that is not the answer, even though a lot of native English speakers in this thread seems to think it is.
That is not the reality though. The majority of English-first users is a quite irrelevant statistic, since a majority of people from non-English speaking countries still uses English on the internet outside of their specific national environments. The majority of English speakers on the internet are non-Americans, so it explains nothing about why the English language (international) areas of lemmy are US-centric.
No, the majority of users on reddit are non-Americans. Americans are just the biggest national group of users, but they are a minority. You are more likely to be talking to a non-American than an American on reddit.
It is not just the funding, they literally got a cheerleader in Trump, extremely eager to participate as well, as was seen with the bombing of Iran.
Netanyahu doesn’t have to hold back anymore, he can blatantly genocide because he got the backing of the US, and the European leaders are mostly too spineless to cross the Americans.
Most of the things happening in Israel now is because of the US though. Netanyahu really felt empowered by Trump becoming president, and rightly so, because he can manipulate that orange toddler into doing anything he wants.
They already use gender, sexuality, nationality, anything really. Race is just one of many strings on the harp of bigotry.
