A new survey surfaces a quiet but consequential truth: the gap between how Americans imagine the world sees them and how the world actually does is wider than most citizens recognize. Anti-American sentiment has been rising across borders, fed by decades of foreign policy choices, cultural dominance, and the accumulated weight of geopolitical power — yet this tide remains largely invisible to those living within it. A nation that cannot read its own reflection in the eyes of others finds itself navigating diplomacy, alliance-building, and global leadership with a fundamentally incomplete map.
