It may look silly, but it's a real issue. There are people who read about problems (real or imaginary) that exist in the US and just copy those talking points wholesale, without stopping for a second to consider whether any of it even applies here
Notable examples include:
-Roe v Wade sperg
-Random Trump policies sperg
-niggers being killed sperg (in a country that has 5 blacks and 3 of those are american tourists)
-waaaah carcentrism sperg (in a city built circa VIII century)
A whiel ago I made the mistake of watching a mainstream talkshow. The token nigger used the word african-american for black people. Not black people in america, for black people here in my country.
 
Sorry, I probably should have clarified it earlier. The "american social media dominance" doesn't bother me at all- the only thing I find mildly funny and a little annoying is people who can't filter the content they consume and just can't seem to recognize that something simply doesn't apply to them on a national (and, more often, personal) level
Yeah that's fair. Similar phenomenon on our side of the pond as well with Americans getting uppity over "well the Europeans do [x] [y] and [z]! We're so backwards and stupid because we don't!" and it gets my goat as well.
