Nothing wrong with it, but it distorts popularity metrics for India-related content.

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.
Yes, well that’s your opinion. Maybe justify/source it if you want to make sweeping generalisations of countries?
What does this even mean?
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.
