brother, that's what a world view is lmao, do you not understand this concept?

Most of us don't really go anywhere outside of the US, the entire continental US is the literal equivalent of the collective EU. What do you want me to say? I literally don't need to leave to US to experience something geographically unique.

I think they've meant world's view, not worldview

im pretty sure the world's view would be that we're parasites destroying the well balanced nature of the ecology of the earth, but that's just me.

geographically unique

Geographically perhaps. But the cultural and historical unique is something you are going to miss out on by staying inside your own home country for your entire life. You think your US regional differences are the same as the differences between two countries, but anyone who has experienced different countries will tell you in an instant that that is not so.

i mean culturally in terms of outside of the continental US sure. There's plenty of interesting and unique culture within the US if you just go looking for it. Though a lot of it is going to be somewhat westernized in essence. If you want more eastern culture, obviously you're going to have to go farther east, but i feel like that's a given.
