Should include the U.S. in there.

No negative x axis

oh Turkey, you goofball! 🙈 😜

Interesting how, aside from Isreal, the rest of the countries that now have a more favourable view of the US (India, Nigeria and South-Africa) have an English speaking population because of colonialism. Maybe the propaganda reached them better? Doesn't hold up for Canada, Australia & New Zealand though.

The same CambridgeAnalytica/facebook/murdoch pithing machine that ate the red states is already in all those countries and growing quickly.
We should have learned our lessons about media literacy but we did not.

That one I can understand, since the US is normalizing relations with Syria now that they’re in Turkey’s sphere. India I’m not too surprised by either in the context of their fighting with Pakistan. Wondering why Nigeria’s view has improved, though.

"It's only okay if we vote in an authoritarian asshole for a leader!"

I wish the chart included more countries. I found the source data at Pew Research, and they only include 24 countries, unfortunately.
-
Not including Ukraine in there is a crime.
-
Or Russia...

No Denmark (or the classic "No Data" Greenland)? Especially after those annexation remarks?
No surprise for Canada after the 51st state rhetoric, and both Canada and Mexico are watching our shared neighbour march into fascism, it is looking really bad from here.
-
Also no China.
-
Also from here!

Well it is, by the dictionary definition, a terrorist state.

Canada:

My view was unfavorsble since the iraq war

Based Sweden. Kenya is oddly supportive, even now. Australia has always hated us more than the average, it seems. Well, they were proven right.

i'm surprised we were that high to begin with, and that we've dropped so low
i don't see people constantly hating on america, nor did i see people talk particularly highly about it in the past, all i see is politicians being a constant level of placatingly neutral-
When I was growing up, I lived in Germany for 10 years as my dad was a civilian employee of the Army. Back then I missed being home, but now that the US has fully shit the bed I'm glad I was able to experience the perspective of being outside the US. It's so huge and has had so much influence for so long that it's easy to think of it as the center of the universe when you're living here. I know better. And now I wish I had the means to be outside of it again and stay there.

As an American feeling like I'm drowning in malignant insanity and stupidity, I know which 5 countries I'm avoiding.
-
Reads like a fascism roadmap honestly.

Those are way higher numbers than I would expect for any county.
I'm not just shitting on US, just in general I think those are high numbers of opinionated people - the methodology prob excludes or doesn't offer neural views, just a positive or negative look ... as two options total, not as a range of how much one views a country positively or negatively. For example, a country that a lot of people see barely favourably would still score high?
-
Justifiably so.
-
Whether it'll be enough to send their sales numbers plummeting and for @buyeuropean@feddit.uk to be more than just a phrase in a decade remains to be seen. If the USAians vote for a democratic candidate, things will go back to normal like nothing ever happened. US surveillance companies will be as loved as before with people breathing a sigh of relief "Finally someone to trust again".
-
Isn't it on the rise in Russia though? Odd that they would leave that out.
-
I guess Germany was only so low before already because it probably was declining since 2016. Most Germans recognise a facist when they see one.
-
Idk, seems about a fifth of them can't recognize fascism when it comes home.
-
-
Half of the mexicans who held positive views changed their opinion. Oof.
-
Yeah, all of them should have.

Now add until the 70s
