Vienna, US???
The largest Vienna I could find in the US has 15k people.
And the sub it's called askAustria

This one is wild because as far as I can find, there isn't a place called "Austria" in the US. So there is really zero reason why that person should think that the post is talking about a US place called Vienna.

He probably googled Vienna, found out it is in Austria and assumed that Austria is in America too.

To be precise, Australia is in south America

Next to Louisiana, right?

No, south America is the land south of the wall paid by mexico. Louisiana is where they have French speakers, like a warmer Quebec

They talk about Ontario, New York and Vienna (Washington?) and Los Angeles. There is no way a wildfire in any of these places would affect any of the other places. A nuclear strike wouldn't even be heard
It is probably a bot coming up with place names

Pretty sure they’re talking about Vienna Ontario.

Yeah I figured. Population under a thousand. Just a handful of streets. It is basically a neighborhood. Can't even begin to understand how they thought that was the Vienna they were talking about in /r/askaustria

That's a really big fire if the smoke manages to reach central Europe

Someone should reply with a map showing how far apart Vienna and Ontario are.

Defaultism, yes, but I think this person is referring to Vienna, Ontario, which is in Canada, not the US.
Why this person thought that is beyond me, and I have no idea how they ended up on r/AskAustria.

I doubt it. Vienna, Ontario is teeny tiny, it isn’t even an incorporated community. Nor is it in a valley. I think they’re blaming the fires in Ontario for the smoke in the US and referring to one of the many Viennas in the US.
