        You also didn’t say “in my country” but simply that it’s being ignored. And I showed it’s not.

          It is usually implied that when people talk about their experiences, they talk about things they have personally experienced. Also it is also implied that people on the internet are not all from one country.

          I wonder why did you think I lived in the US in the first place.

            If the discussion is about the general “left/right” divide, and you are speaking more specifically about the left/right divide in your own country, it make sense to indicate that and what country you are from (of course, you’ve avoided mentioning what country you are from).

            I wonder why did you think I lived in the US in the first place.

            I wonder why you weren’t more specific about what you were talking about when we are talking about the general left/right divide.

              I have lived in multiple countries across Europe, and I have seen what the article describes in multiple countries. I do not consider my life story to be relevant. I’m living in the Netherlands right now if that’s what you’re asking.

              The point I’m making is that a random thing the Biden admin says it’s doing is not relevant for the majority of the world, or the majority of the developed world even. I am not even sure it’s relevant for everyone in the US with how polarized people seem to be.
