I have a wide circle of friends in Japan and I read several English language Japanese newspapers. I also have friends in many other countries and follow the press in four of them..
Each country has its own political spectrum. The American spectrum is from Hate Trump to Love Trump. Almost everyone in the world thinks America is predominantly on the Hate Trump side of the spectrum, if they have any opinion about American politics. Russian and Chinese citizens do not hold this view.
Of course, in reality, American politics is divided four ways. Half of adult citizens don’t vote. Among the remaining half the percentage is 25% love Trump 10% are in the middle and 15% hate Trump.
Why does the world have such an incorrect Hate Trump view of American politics?
Because the American newspaper that shapes global opinion is the New York Times. Most of the world has no idea, and I can say this for certainty about Japan, that the New York Times is 100% in the Hate Trump column and has been for a decade. The New York Times also hates Israel and has for 45 years. It has hated Jews for 80 years.
The New York Times is the spokes medium for the ‘Woke’ world. Most of the world doesn’t take the Times seriously for two of its three main Woke theses. The readers of the world do not think there are more than two genders and they doubt that America has a systemic hostility based on race. From reading the Times articles about the multiple black elected officials the readers would guess that blacks hold more elective offices in America than are found on the entire continent of Africa. A quick search of Google would confirm that view.
The NYTimes view that has global concurrence is the human caused global climate Armageddon. This is not held by Chinese, Russian, Indian or African populations.
Is this NYTimes global opinion monopoly likely to change? Only if it is replaced by some global Chinese medium or some new trusted Internet medium. Both are unlikely.
