Do you have stats do back that up, though? Like actual data that says people in other countries are less politically ignorant than americans?
Sure, hang on a second:
Actual stats
Brexit?
Your link just gives information about political awareness in America, there is nowhere anywhere that compares them to any other country like I asked for.
P.s. Trump lost the popular vote.
The question doesn’t compare Americans to other countries. I found some more interesting stats. That seems like a good question to post to /asklemmy.
I definitely specified in my question for a comparison to other countries. You replied to my comment with an irrelevant link. And then now you've given me a second irrelevant link. If you can't answer my question, then stop trying.
Saying "americans are so politically unaware!" Implies Americans alone are unique in being politically unaware. I am looking for actual data that shows specifically americans are less politically aware than the citizens in other countries are about their own countries politics. Showing me information about how bad Americans are at civics tests is not needed here at all.
Here’s the statistics you asked for.
Lmao.
Thought so.
