Being 'other' is sometime annoying and hard yes. On HN I am 'other' because I am not from the US and English is not my mother tongue and I don't watch Netflix.

Being 'other' is sometime annoying and hard yes. On HN I am 'other' because I am not from the US and English is not my mother tongue and I don't watch Netflix. At work I am the only foreigner in a Chinese company. But being other means you are special and provided some sufficient open mindedness, you can bring a fresh point of view to the discussion.
