That they are culturally different from Western people. They might be very well know what’s culturally appropriate to post when trying to reach a Nigerian audience but Western culture is a bit different in lot’s of aspects. The posts those people posted on LW look like they are not written by normal Western people but either by people who wrote them because they are payed to do so or by people who operate under different cultural norms.
As I think I mentioned before, Intentional Insights tries to reach a global audience, and after the US, our top three countries are non-western. So it’s highly valuable for us to have non-western volunteers/contractors who can figure out what would be salient to a diverse international audience.
Do you have other data about your impact in those countries besides passive reading numbers? Do you have links to the receptions of InIn content by non-western audiences besides those people you payed?
Links are hard, since most things I have are people writing to me. However, here is one relevant link. After finding out about our content, a prominent Indian secular humanist association invited me to do a guest blog for them. I was happy to oblige.
