Are people in the US aware that they are now definitely a rogue state, or is this fact covered up by the usual patriotism somehow? (lemmy.world)

It figures it takes someone calling themselves "CanadaPlus" to actually see the actual question and answer it.

Everyone else is answering about how aware Americans are about what's happening, but the question was about whether Americans were aware of how the world perceived the US. The answer, of course, is "no, Americans have no idea because Americans consume almost no non-American media".
