I’m saying both politics subs are “organically” as you say, flooded with us politics, because the demand (in english at least) for politics on lemmy is mostly for US politics at the moment.
And I’m also arguing names don’t matter too mcuh for these kindof communities. There are many that have sarcastic, silly, or intentionally dishonest names, and I don’t see that as a problem, just the way things are. IMO Changing the name to “US politics” wouldn’t have a positive or negative impact on anyone’s experience and is probably unnecessary, especially since the URL probably can’t change anyways.
A rule change would be ineffective at increasing visibility of non-US news, an attempt to force visibility in this community of non-US politics would cause many subscribers to leave for another group, amd a complete name change is a combination of ineffective, unnecessary, and impossible.
