    It is usually implied that when people talk about their experiences, they talk about things they have personally experienced.

    If the discussion is about the general “left/right” divide, and you are speaking more specifically about the left/right divide in your own country, it make sense to indicate that and what country you are from (of course, you’ve avoided mentioning what country you are from).

    I wonder why did you think I lived in the US in the first place.

    I wonder why you weren’t more specific about what you were talking about when we are talking about the general left/right divide.

      I have lived in multiple countries across Europe, and I have seen what the article describes in multiple countries. I do not consider my life story to be relevant. I’m living in the Netherlands right now if that’s what you’re asking.

      The point I’m making is that a random thing the Biden admin says it’s doing is not relevant for the majority of the world, or the majority of the developed world even. I am not even sure it’s relevant for everyone in the US with how polarized people seem to be.
