Type of condition that causes Americans to be generally uninterested or refuse to easily research other countries politics, culture, ideologies, etc. Americans suffering from this American Ignorance think that American politics is the world's politics.
Person1 displays common traits of American Ignorance.
Scenario 1
Person 1: OH MY GOD! Can you believe India only outlawed acid throwing on women's faces in 2013?
Person 2: Yeah. I can. They're deeply religious and acid throwing was very common. They don't see women the same way as other countries.
Scenario 2
Person 1: European countries basically share the same cultures, right?
Person 2: I mean that's sort of a generalization.
Person 1: Dude really... What's the difference between Germans and Italians anyway?
Person 2: Do you know about the P.I.I.G.S.?
Person 1: What's that?
Person 2: Just shut up before you say anything else stupid.
Scenario 3
Person 1: WAIT! Some African countries follow a different calendar?!
Person 2: Yes. Other countries thousands of years ago followed different ways to record time, and they're still recording their unique time and calendar today.
Person 1: Oh my god, America sucks! Why couldn't we learn about that in school?
Person 2: Some religions in America follow different calendars. You're just not that perceptive man.
Scenario 4
Person 1: Things could be worse in America. Look at how Saudi Arabia treats women.
Person 2: While that is true, that doesn't mean America doesn't have any issues. Stop using other countries ideals as a scapegoat to not want to improve America.
