I'm fine with USA politics, because they got their hands up in everyone's asses so it affects everyone.

What bothers me more is American football. Nobody except them even plays this game but it's all over the news every time there's a major event. Same for baseball.

You're seeing NFL on lemmy? I don't see it at all and wish I did. Where can I find it

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

There is an NFL community on Lemmy World. It's fairly small though.

!nfl@lemmy.world

I rarely see American football on Lemmy. But my feed is set to local usually.

I got a feed full of spam because they decided some form of fantasy football needed an entire instance, with seperate communities for each and every single fucking team.

I block this communities whenever they show up. Cleans up the feed really quick.

[–] HerbalGamer@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah but there were a shitload of these

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

And I keep blocking em :).

It bothers me when they just do it in every sub. Star Wars memes? Star Trek memes?

There's no fucking escape.

The IFAF has 120 nations which play American Football, though? I'd love to see more about the Japanese league but it's mostly a youth sport over there.

We have essentially the same game in Canada. But I don't care about it either. https://youtu.be/Rsqcokevi2A

Lol American football is fun. Actually all the major American sports are fun. If that's what bothers you then you should find an instance or a platform that's not in English. Because most of the English communities are going to be dominated by Americans.
