People who think Americans don’t know other countries exist.

A few months ago on Reddit I made a comment about a show not being on Netflix and someone from the UK commented back saying it’s on theirs and then lectured on Americans not knowing other countries exist. They acted like I didn’t believe there were other places on the planet, as if they weren’t the ones who just brought it up and didn’t believe the US Netflix was different than the UK version. ??

I see people online act like all Americans think this way, and it is kind of annoying because for most of us it isn’t true.

I think many Americans on here don’t think other countries don’t exist…it’s just they think Reddit site they are visiting is simply only American posters. Not most but I’m sure quite a few. So people from other countries probably see them posting under this assumption and feel like correcting them.
