… you said it, not me 😅 It's a combination of worry, horror and a sort of sick fascination.
But yeah the stereotypical joke of some Americans not realizing there's a world beyond their borders does have some truth to it. I guess it's sort of understandable given just geographical facts alone (let alone hegemonic status): continental US of A only has 2 countries as neighbors and one of them mostly speaks the same language, where in continental Yurop you can probably hit 4 countries with 7 languages on a 6h drive.
