    Lots of really hot climates, lots of cars, 3rd largest population in the world, and a very active news media.

    If India or Africa could afford cars you be hearing about it a lot there too.

      I literally live in a country that’s hotter than the US and this rarely if ever happens. I’m not sure it’s just media bias.

      I don’t want to shatter your worldview or anything, but the continent of africa has in fact cars. Also a very hot climate.

      What they don’t have is american brain rot.

        Let’s name a country. Let’s do a 1:1 comparison. I bet we can identify more logical factors than the whimsical notions of, “brain rot.” I bet we can also peel back some not-so-comfortable factoids about said country, too.
