I’ve accidentally commented in that community more than once when it was a generic post…but the top comment nowadays is a reminder of the rules.
Very, very different than the examples you describe
Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway

It’s just…the internet I guess?
Go into the various “Ask” communities, and you’ll see things like this constantly:
Women of Lemmy, what’s something that…?
As a man, I …
Americans of Lemmy, what is your favorite…?
As a European, I…
Definitely mildly infuriating when people just butt in when they’re specifically not the target of the question. If I’m somehow doing that with this reply, lol, I apologetically appreciate the irony.

you get paid for internet comments?

The issue is that people want a public forum to be private and controlled as such.
Like if you go to a public park and want to kick out anyone who isn’t a part of your party you want ot have there… the issue is you. it’s not the other users of the public park.
that isn’t how it works. if you want a private party you need to have it on a private piece of land.

In a public park, you can absolutely ask random people to leave your party area. Not the park, but the space you are using. Double so if you’ve gone through the process to reserve that section.

you’d also be an asshole.

Ummm… what do you think the park picnic space rentals are?
Also, parks with camping have reserved spots.
Seems to me either you don’t get out much, or you are one of those assholes that refuses to leave a space someone already paid to rent.

It is significantly more likely to read:
“Europeans of Lemmy……?”
“As an American……!”

Is that why US political posts are always filled with people from other countries?
Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 7 hours ago
That’s because US politics is interfering in other countries.
TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 5 hours ago
every countries politics interferes with its neighbors.
USA just has global reach. So does China and a few other countries.

I’ll take your word for it, though I assume it is the case. Like I said…it’s just the internet doing what it does (for better or worse).
“As an American” when I see those, I don’t even go into them because my opinion wasn’t solicited. I also don’t throw out my opinions in non-American news/politics communities for the same reason. Also, I wish that was a two-way street.
