We are both arguing what we each think should happen. It just so happens that in this disagreement, what I think should happen is for things to not change.
I get the appeal of somehow turning a larger more active community that is similar to what you want into explicitly what you want, but that doesn’t consider how that effects the majority of people who joined and are part of that community because it is already explicitly what they want. The majority of the demand for political news on lemmy is for US politics.
If there was somehow a way to throttle the US politics so it didn’t flood out everything else, then the bulk of the community would just find another place that wasn’t doing that.
All that can reasonably be done is be patient, for communities to grow and stabilize, until there are active groups available for each specific interest
