I thought it'd be nice for the rest of the world to have a de-america'd instance where there's no discussion of america, certainly no american politics, and no americans are allowed via IP block.

But I think to do that effectively, you'd probably have to defederate from most of the rest of lemmy, and then you've lost most of the federation benefits of being a lemmy instance. However I'm only vaguely familiar with how all of the connections work so maybe someone can correct me.

Unfortunately, USA politics and economics is affecting everyone right now and has been for over a century. The problem may self resolve in the next decade or two, assuming the human species survived that long.

Your point?

Even if you think you're getting away from USA politics and economics, it is still influencing other politics and economics, and I don't see how discussions can entirely avoid the elephant in the room.
