minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish18•7 months agoCan’t say I’m a fan of a country-specific holiday being featured like this in an intentionally neutral and international instance. Would have much preferred to see something for the trans day of remembrance.
minus-squareRuudlinkfedilinkEnglish11•7 months agoWell I’m the owner of lemmy.world, and I’m Dutch. But still I know what Thanksgiving is, and many users are from the US, so why not? But I do agree we should also feature days like the Trans day of Remembrance. Maybe we could create a community-created list of special days?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•7 months agoYeah, a lot of Americans would be with you in that sentiment.
minus-squaremy_hat_stinkslink3•7 months agoIt’s not really a neutral international instance though. Try posting non-US news to [email protected] and see what happens.
minus-squaredoleolinkfedilink6•7 months ago Try posting non-US news to !news and see what happens. Well that’s some high grade bullshit. “The World’s Internet Frontpage”. It’ll go unnoticed, but I think it’s appropriate to remind Americans that theyre co-opting terms like “news” to mean “American news”.
