The USA’s disparate influence on global culture is so strong, yet we don’t say the popularity metrics are distorted for American content. Odd phrasing IMHO

There is a difference between production and distribution, and simply generating lots of feedback.

Youtubers basically get more views by Indians on India related content. Is that such a bad thing? i mean it has India related content.

I think their dissonance comes from seeing Western culture as the default. Indian content is seen as unusual, and evokes strong other-ism.
