It's an American website from an American company with the majority of users being, get this, American. Would you get upset about Wykop being Polish, Tianya Club being Chinese centric or Pikabu being Russian centered?

  1. I'm fairly certain that over 51% is a majority.

  2. It isn't inconsiderate to think that the majority of people will understand you.

  3. I'm not aware of OP leaving his/her country to post this.

  4. Reddit is an American website as the company is American, as are the majority of its users (see first point above).

  5. And it's not my post, so yeah, that would be really hard for me to do.

Why did you type your response in English? Couldn't you have been considerate and translated it to several other languages so as not to cause any inconvenience to your readers?

This r/EnglishDefaultism needs to stop.

But....I thought you loved the USA! From your own post history: "Every time an American complains that the USA is a shithole I want to punch him or her (not literally but you get the point). I am from Mexico and there is a reason so many of us immigrate to the USA. Crossing the border from Mexico into USA is like going from a literal war zone with no infrastructure into a modern country where you can walk outside at night freely. Seriously, if you're American quityerbitching. You wouldn't survive a week in Mexico on a Mexican salary. Other than a few developed places like Monterrey this entire country is a failure."
