If you are in the following countries, you don't have to worry. I consider them part of the United States :)

Canada, Mexico, Brazil, England/United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, India, and the Philippines.

Matthew, you forgot to list Texas!

Ukraine is a very Catholic country.

Well, I don't think there's much Trad going on there. And this is an almost exclusively Roman-rite forum.

And although the SSPX might have outposts in certain missionary countries, do they speak English?

I was responding to this, Matthew:

Quote from: Matthew

Basically if your country is CATHOLIC, has a STRONG CATHOLIC PRESENCE, or at least ESTABLISHED TRAD CATHOLIC MISSIONS and might have legitimate CathInfo members/visitors, you don't have to worry.

You said that Catholic countries, or those with a strong Catholic presence, needen't worry ... but then listed Ukraine as a counter-example.

There is an SSPX presence in Moscow

Well, you all might be right (SSPX presences, Catholicism in various countries, etc.)

But I still know that in 10 years, we haven't had a single Russian or Chinese national on CathInfo.

I know how many AMERICANS never visit CathInfo. How much more a couple dozen Trad Russians?

We've had some very distinctly "hyphenated" Americans here, but usually they were born in, or at least grew up in, America. The only real foreigners we've had here are from the countries I listed -- usually English speaking, plus those countries where the SSPX has not just a presence, but a HEAVY presence.
