   @youronlyone Likely because China is investing in that.

   Like, in the US, you can't throw a rock without hitting a Thai restaurant, because the Thai government has spend 40 years investing in establishing Thai restaurants in the US.

   My small town has three Thai restaurants.

   There are over ten times as many FilAms in America, but finding a Filipino restaurant is very rare, even though Filipino cuisine has been hyped in recent years in the US.

   I encountered a fellow American online who was insisting, in apparent good faith, that there is no such thing as a person anywhere in the world who doesn’t recognize the names of all 50 US states as easily as they recognize France or China, and so there’s never any need to clarify that you mean in the US.

   My fellow Americans, that is not true. When people here in Europe ask where I’m from, and I say Massachusetts rather than Boston, 80% of the time I can visibly see the gears turning as they try to decide whether I just made up that word to mess with them. Nobody is talking about Massachusetts on the Estonian or the Nepalese news. Nobody outside of the US has ever massed a chusetts and they never will.

   My parents, both gone now, life long progressives. Campaigned for McGovern with enthusiasm and never changed
