This is just American exceptionalism. Let me reframe it, how many of those people would be unaffected by the outcome of Chinese events? Yet there are nowhere near as many posts about what is happening there.
But most of all, I think OCs complaint is valid. All it would have taken is text added to the post that just said “Trump” and this would have been filtered by their keyword blocklist (and mine), their freedom to disengage remaining intact. OP replied to mock them when they could have made that change. That is what frustrates me.
If think what is happening in the USA will be isolated to the USA, then good luck.
USD is the worlds reserve currency. What happens to it effects every country.
I know that every aspect of life is political now, and that makes some mad. But really ask yourself how your country will be affected by the devaluation of USD and its next financial crisis. Then ask what would your country use for international trade instead?
On the flipside, how many of those people live in countries that would be unaffected by the outcome of US events?
