This almost sounds like a parody of American meddling and ignorance, complete with the US state population comparison.

Not saying you don't have a point (I have no skin in the game) but I read thousands of similar western comments about various countries "smaller than $state!" and they're never helpful.

You see, people sometimes use familiar locations or factual references to draw comparisons to other items or places.
