This thread's numbers betray you. You're living under a rock if you think this topic isn't a regular at the highest political levels, on the news, and now frankly at the ballot box.

So you _are_ living under a rock, okay.


Why makes you think this is such a hot issue? It's a sporting event.

Two teams of murderous rapists are fighting one another, everyone has their favorite team, and if someone thinks someone else supports a different team they say "how can you support those murderous rapists! Just look what they did to the innocent people on my side!"

It's an opportunity for people to be tribal about something that, for the overwhelming majority of people, will never affect them the slightest bit.


We all are. Some of us are just aware of it.

Those numbers you referenced have nothing to do with the topic. We aren't talking about "americans’ views of global threats". As I saw from your other comment, you're just living under a rock and you know it.


> We aren't talking about "americans’ views of global threats".

That...is in fact exactly the topic of conversation? I can't help you with this one.
