      Well America itself is actually 6 time zones with the largest gap being 6 hours between the Eastern time zone and the Hawaii-Aleutian time zone so it could just be that OP

      1. Is dumb
      2. Is being intentionally vague for intrigue/outrage
      3. just lives in a country with one time zone and didn’t have to think about it. This could be true even if they live in a big ass county like China or India since they both only recognize one time zone each for their own reason.

        As an American I can unequivocally state that differing time zones are one thing we do get. It’s a very wide place.

          It’s ironic that some people go after Americans for being ignorant of the wider world then they go and act like America = East Coast

        As a US Citizen I have quite a few EU friends (I like hanging out there okay?!? and the people are mostly kinda awesome?) and the biggest and most humorous thing I have discovered is that most Europeans don’t realize how small their countries are compared to the US.

          Literally everyone knows how big the US is. Mostly cos yous never shut up about it lol.

          “Most Europeans” is not only a massive exaggeration, but it’s condescending as fuck
