The internet has no physical location.
However what is considered normal/ mainstream/ acceptable varies from place to place. That's all I'm saying - that what you see and hear and understand day to day is not what I do, or Ali does, or York does. And there's more people here from your country, despite it's widely differing opinions.
A few examples. In Britain:
If you went everywhere armed and objected to turning in your weapon to go to a National Park you would be considered paranoid. And probably dangerous.
If you took your child out of mainstream education and schooled them at home you would be considered at best unusual, and probably unfair to the child.
If you went to church on a regular basis you'd be in the minority and people would probably worry about their language around you.
If you suggested free education should be scrapped you'd be considered as slightly to the right of Atilla the Hun and about as fragrant
If you espoused shooting all CCTV cameras you might raise a few smiles, but seriously - not the done thing old chap.
We have very different baselines. The only impact the internet has is that we get to hear about other people's.
