- phist_mcgee 2y agoWhat a weird name: "rest of the world". I live in the "rest of the world" and never thought of myself like that.
- 4gotunameagain 2y agoTwo clicks away: About our name Why “Rest of World”? It’s a corporate catchall term used in the West to designate “everyone else.” Companies use it to lump together people and markets outside wealthy Western countries. We like the term because it encapsulates the problems we fight head-on: a casual disregard for billions of people, and a Western-centric worldview that leaves an unthinkable number of insights, opportunities, and nuances out of the global conversation.
- EasyMark 2y agoDon’t you think “there’s my county $MY_COUNTRY, and then there’s the rest of the world” ? I figured every one did, I don’t really consider anyone a “citizen of the world”
- TeaBrain 2y agoI'm not sure whether it is as simple as every country being the same in this regard. On the average, I'd assume the average citizen of a non-US country to be more informed about the US political landscape, than vice versa.
