The World Wide Web is not an American invention. Who invented what is completely irrelevant in this context anyway though.
When non-native English speakers are navigating in a non-national internet setting we use English. I have gathered from the many American comments in this thread, that that fact is apparently incredibly difficult for Americans to gauge. Nevertheless, it is a fact.
Again, the numbers you linked shows that you are more likely to speak to a non-American on reddit than an American. Your entire premise is flawed from the beginning.
What I am saying is that of all Internet users that use English, Americans are by far the largest group
No, they didn’t misunderstand. It is you who are massively misunderstanding. You are suffering from the erronous assumption that people who speak English on the internet are native English speakers when that it is not so at all. People speak English on the internet because it is the largest commonly understood language. So people from non-English speaking countries are using it as well. And there are a heck of a lot more non-native English speakers in the world than native English speakers.
So you are most likely at any time on the internet to be speaking to a non-native English speaker, and thus definitely not an American.
Again, you are completely missing the point of the internet and English usage on it. People are using English as a lingua franca. There are a lot more non-native English speakers on the internet than native English speakers.
So no, odds are not that it is an American you are speaking to, just because that person speaks English. You are literally regurgitating the fallacy that OP is about.
The thing is we are not talking about visiting countries. We are talking about the virtual World Wide Web.
What on Earth are you on about? “denigrate Americans”. They are pointing out facts. That you apparently are so fragile that you consider that denigration is entirely on yourself.
Your comment is very typical of that (fallacious) US centrism. People write in English on the internet because that is the universal language. There are far more secondary English speakers on the internet than primary English speakers.
In a fact based discussion sure, but bullshitting has other purposes: muddying the waters, creating distrust of media, simply drowning out non-bullshit.
He is not concerned about the population, he is concerned about not having enough young men to send off to war.
Yeah, Trump has already been president once. There is no escaping being a laughing stock country after that one.
It’s not whataboutism to point out the accusing side doing the exact same thing, that is simply called pointing out hypocrisy.
It is literally the definition of whataboutism, you muppet.
She seems to understand it better than you.
Nah, it is just a lot of hexbear alt accounts like yourself on your disingenously labeled “reasonable” side.
Still doesn’t make any sense at all. Is she suffering from some sort of eating disorder?

Sounds a bit like how he ended up with twitter in the first place
How about adressing the issue instead of just cresting strawmen about the messengers?

Twitter was always bad. It is of course way worse now, but it is silly to have any nostalgic and reverential feelings for it.
