Not at all.
Hardly any Lemmy instance is hosted in the US and other countries never had this section to begin with.
Most Lemmy instances already need to comply with laws making them responsible for keeping illegal content up.

Ein Billighandy ohne SIM für den digitalen Führerschein ist eine Möglichkeit.
Sind halt leider so 100€ an Kosten, das wäre mir aber die Sicherheit wert.
She lost her shit
There's the BSW which has the social policy of the left, the economic policy of neoliberals and the reactionary policies of the nazis.
They are hardly better than full blown nazis and vote in lockstep with them on topics concerning minorities.
Next pope will probably be significantly worse.
This one was remarkably progressive and has infuriated nearly the entirety of conservative/reactionary Christianity. They will do everything to ensure one of them will become the next pope.
At least the German Catholic church may decide to split away from the Vatican. Their relationship is already hanging on by a thread and a reactionary pope may push it over the edge.
Communism as Marx intended:
State-capitalism is as close to communism as laissez-faire capitalism.
Russian disinformation is still more effective as of now. Trump himself is literally just repeating Russian disinformation and not making up lies on his own. The US has not yet become as proficient with the firehose of falsehood as the Russian state due to lack of experience for the most part.
You just cannot build up a Telegram channel network with hundreds of thousands of subscribers posting about how the EU harvests Adrenochrome from babies over night.
It's source available, not open source.
It severely limits what can legally be done by restricting modifications and prohibiting "commercial" distribution:
You may not remove or obscure any functionality in the software related to payment to the Licensor in any copy you distribute to others.
You may distribute the software or provide it to others only if you do so free of charge for non-commercial purposes.
Non-commercial purposes is extremely vague by the way. Depending on the country - or even the court in a country - nearly everything distributed on the internet is for commercial purposes.
For example, in Germany, only commercial websites have to put up a legal disclosure consisting of address, full name, phone number and email. Yet courts have ruled that every single website that is available to the public is "commercial" - only private webpages available to a handful of people are non-commercial. If anyone redistributed the software in Germany this license would be grounds for a successful lawsuit.
How about the burning dog in the burning café?
The AfD won't sweep but they will likely become the 2nd strongest party, after the conservative CDU whose right wing loves the Republicans:
Among others in this image: Former traffic minister Andreas Scheuer, a prominent CDU member (CSU to be more precise but it's basically the same party).
If AfD + CDU achieve a majority it's not unlikely that they will form a coalition - or at the very least vote for the same bills.
Fascism is on a global rise. The fascist Reform UK is surging in British polls, Italy has a fascist government, the fascist ~~ÖVP~~ FPÖ has gotten the most votes in the recent Austrian election etc etc
Fascism is on a global rise and actively supported by Russia, China and the US. I doubt that democracy can survive efficient Russian disinformation + the full resources of China and the US.
I'd say it will only get worse from here.
