Yeh it’s quite weird. That nationalism seems to have morphed overtime to some kind of perverse arrogance where they have convinced themselves that badic citizen rights are not what they need, and the rest of the world is the poor cousin who knows nothing.
I am half filipino, so any time some one says “rest of the world” I really question if they are thinking of the brown people in the philippines and malaysia and indonesia, etc? I have half my family in the philippines, I hear their opinions often. Does the person saying “rest of the world” hear their opinions too? Or does the “rest of the world” mean the opinions of white people in europe.
My gut reactions when seeing a .world is a westernized white liberal (non leftist sort) is behind the keyboard
