As someone outside the U.S., what is your default persona for anonymous/pseudonymous users until you know more about them? Just curious. Like, if you don't have any information about them, do you read the words in the voice of a person just like you?
I don't read words in any voice other than the naturally subvocalisation that occurs when I'm reading, which is always in my voice.
Even when I read a quote myself Morgan Freeman, I'm hearing my voice, doing a Morgan freeman impression.
But in terms of who I picture? Nothing, people online are not even corporal beings to me until details are revealed. They are still human and have whole lives offline so that's not an excuse to be needlessly rude, but I know nothing of them so why would I randomly invent details unless I'm doing so as a "put myself in their shoes" thought experiment.
But then I have a degree of aphantasia so I'm not "picturing" anything, all I have is words anyway, so it's easy not to add in extra words that change my assumptions about a person.
You mean anything with~~out~~ world in its name?
Sorry, anything with or without / everything not ich_iel
I completely understand the sentiment.
I also understand the sentiment that the internet is effectively a US invention dating back at least to ARPAnet.
I guess what I'm suggesting is: can't we all just get along? At least we can now all communicate with each other.
It does make it fun to stir the pot
Don't be so self-involved. Try visit China for once and you will get sick of the word "China", it's literally in everything there :), like communist party's intelligence service :)
The thing is we are not talking about visiting countries. We are talking about the virtual World Wide Web.
