This is a news article published in the ‘world news’ community of a worldwide Internet forum, from one of the oldest and most respected not-for-profit news agencies in the world, whom themselves published the article in their ‘world news’ section. It discusses Danish people’s overwhelmingly negative responses to the American president’s tariffs.
And you somehow make this into “ugh why to the liberal elite always only care about what the rest of the world thinks”.
Maybe, just maybe, this article wasn’t written nor shared solely for the demographic of USA voters?
The AP is headquartered in NYC. They write their articles in American English. They spend a wholly disproportionate time covering US news, and the closest relationships they have are with US institutions. The author of this article has an American education at a state-managed university.
The national language of Denmark is Danish. 15 percent of the nation doesn’t even speak English.
This is 100 percent an article meant for US audiences, from a primarily US news organization.
People from Denmark also all learn English during school and have done since at least the 60s, which is why you found that only 15% of them can’t speak English. Over 50% of Danes correspond in English for their work and are confident they can read English news according to 2013 survey. The proportion of US Americans that can’t read AP News stories is honestly probably higher, with the US now at 21% illiteracy.
AP News may be primarily US-focused news source, but they are a global news organization. They sell their stories via syndication to hundreds of other news organizations and newspapers worldwide, in multiple languages, and have done for a very long time. To decide that all their articles are automatically for US audiences is just wrong.
Gaslighting is repeatedly presenting information that’s untrue to convince someone of an alternate reality. Literally not possible to do in a single message, and nothing I wrote is not factual.
I only tried to let you see how Americentrist your response to OOP was, and your subsequent response is to weaponise victimhood to dismiss any introspection. I will not waste further time.
This is the repeated part right here. If this article was primarily targeted towards Denmark, it wouldn’t be written in American English. You danced around that point. English is a second language for Denmark. An article targeted at Danes would be in Danish.
