Lol way to put it in perspective, I know maybe 2 politicians in all of Europe. Idk when, Reddit used to be global but it's gotten incredibly America-focused, and maybe that's just with the size but holy crap is it annoying now - and I'm American. I get bombarded with politics daily, can't I just have a place that's just memes?
It's American politics focused nowadays. Reddit has always been overwhelmingly American, the US is after all the largest Anglophone state. In fact it only got "global" recently with the rise of the French and German subreddits.
