        It’s, actually, extremely boring. There are two candidates, everyone knows their approximate stance, there’s almost nobody who would be possibly thinking twice about one over the other (on both sides), you sure as hell won’t find those on lemmy. It’s a business that’s been settled month ago.

        Oh, and then there’s this side character to the story, with a funny name, and there hasn’t been anything new about him either, but people keep bringing him up and calling him names.

        Whatever, bro, it’s like watching big bang theory every night. Gets hella old real quick.

          1. Violence (Assassination attempt on a candidate)

          2. Natural Disasters

          3. Legal Chicanery (A candidate needs to win to stay out of prison)

          4. International Consequences (Ukraine could be fucked)

          These are very much not boring to watch

      Or it is news about the publisher of a popular (outside of the hobby) game.

        Okay, but then why is this community so dead and only has the US politics post up there? Like, there are hundreds of boardgame news, some of them literally being about a publisher of a popular game announcing a boardgame (Rayman), raising insane amounts of money on Kickstarter. Yet it’s not mentioned, and the politics posts are.

          Because it’s pretty dead and needs people contributing posts. It’s not like a mod is being biased here, there’s just no submissions. You could be the change you want to see in the sub and start submitting posts.

      In the past month this community has had 3 other posts:
      “What game did this component come from”,
      a post that’s just a link to the Essen page with no comments,
      and a post CAH suing Elon.

      I’m not going to be upset when this community isn’t being used for boardgames anyway. Maybe this will remind people that this community exists and encourage more posts.
