> The US (and many English-speaking countries) tend to be incredibly US-centric and euro-centric in their worldview and news coverage. For example, right now, the world's largest democracy is holding the largest democratic election in the history of human civilization[0]. I find this attitude very weird. Every time I encounter it in the real world, it comes off as a humble brag. As in, oh the rest of the west is so ignorant and dumb, me? I know all about your culture. From my experience, huge demographics of people around the world don't really care about what happens outside their tribes. On the other hand, no one goes around chiding say Indian villagers on why they are not more aware of the complex inter-dynamics of the current Russian-European conflict. Somehow expecting everyone to be aware of your favorite world topic appears to be the same equivalent of assuming that everyone that writes code be well versed in whatever stack you are familiar in.
