I’ve got more people assuming I’m an American here than I ever did on Reddit. I think a specific of type of online leftists just assumes you’re from the US if you don’t agree with them, because of course there’s the countries they support and then there’s the US and nobody else lol
Honestly I don’t even notice it. Virtually every online space I’ve ever been a part of has been like this. Originally the Yanks never asked for everyone to learn English and use their platforms either so it’s kinda fair enough as far as I’m concerned.
Yeah, unfortunately even the fediverse suffers from a heavy dose of US defaultism.
