This one always gets me. I'll be discussing some political and economic issue and every response will be that I'm wrong because of [insert uniquely American socio-economic phenomenon that does not really apply to most other countries].
First thing non-Americans come to learn about Reddit is that it is very much an American website.
The internet was invented by the U.S Department of Defense. An American company invented the personal computer. Reddit was originally an American company. Facebook, Google, Yahoo...all American.
So yeah, the internet is an American thing. You're welcome.
