The sensibilities of expats from these countries tend to be quite misaligned with that of their governments and a large chunk of their fellow countrymen. It is of course the case with almost every country but the divide can be markedly stronger in some countries.
- gdy 8y agoDo you have any evidence allowing you to single out these two countries?
- aluren 8y agoWell no, I don't have 'evidence'. I just report what the expats in question tell me. I'm not singling them out, they just came to my mind due to recent conversations. I'm not trying to make a grander point or anything, and not every remark has to be completely exhaustive and evidenced to be 'allowed' into a casual conversation. If you want me to source every statement I make, you're going to have to pay me, just like my boss does when I write papers.
- gdy 8y ago>I'm not singling them out But you did it and you did it with the "it's pretty obvious" qualifier. This casual bias needs to be corrected.
