Do you think the Sims 4 & its DLC is too US/euro focused?
As far as worlds, food, clothing, activies, and mannerisms Elaborate in comments if you choose to do so.

Imagine an overrepresentation of white and asian-based sim in a centralafrican-based sim village, reverse to HoB. I can already see whole socialmedia channels burning, rightfully in my eyes. The same people who don't care about HoB-overrepresentation, will be definately explode if this happen on an african-themed village. I would be really cautious, especially after the japanese dlc incident. I know an overrepresentation won't happen, but I really asking myself would the PoC-player accept it if a white family would live in an african-themed village or would they be angry, because the white/asian sim ruined the immersion?
Yeah, youre overthinking this or being facetious lol
White families are found everywhere, even in countries in Africa. Asian families are found everywhere, even in countries in South America. And every kind of race can be found anywhere. But if you want a certain playstyle or world, go for it. This is why I wish we had more control over the way townies spawn. I do wish there were tabs to control how many townies, what sex, single/married, what age, what color/ethnicity etc generates in your world. I actually have had a world I wanted asian set in the past, and I had to keep editing townies. I wasnt angry or outraged though, thats just how the game is designed.
I dont really care what twitter thinks about my personal game and neither should you. Im only annoyed if the sims team accepts those extreme political or social views and then limits options for everyone else.
Do you really want the team to stop including anything thats not US/Eurocentric because of irrational complaints?
Also you say sims team shouldnt include X because there may be complaints, but there are world influenced by real countries already in the game. Why are those "safe" to include and others are not? Thats a double standard.
I remember the issue with SE controversy, and I dont like the decison the team made.
