From what I've heard, this is mostly a US phenomenon.
You writing that this is mostly a US phenomenon (which is not true) is weirdly appropriate, since it shows the main issue (not being informed enough about what happens around the world).
The US is much more unequal than most other developed countries though, hence why it happens much more in the US than in other places.
There's plenty of it in the UK too.
