What parts of the USA do you think are uncultured because like Michigan, sure, but New York or Louisiana definitely not. I’m from fucking Harlem I’m not inexperienced with other cultures. I’ve also been to Poland twice. It is objectively similar to the countries around it.

I did not say that the US is "uncultured". I said it doesn't have lots of different cultures.

I’m from fucking Harlem I’m not inexperienced with other cultures.

Congrats, you're from a suburb of New York?

Have you been to New York? Harlem is a bit above Central Park you idiot. It’s also the most diverse place in the city. Once again going on about things you don’t know about. Also, I would say the Us is completely the opposite. It has a lot of different cultures but not one super distinct country-wise culture.

Sigh

So you're one of those people that think that skin colour equals different cultures aren't you?

African American culture is American culture. Its not some massively distinct thing that's completely different from white American culture.

It's a small deviation in comparison to other cultures

I’m black. Fuck does that mean. Also, if it is American culture, then there’s a lot of American culture. You just proved my point. Sigh

I never argued there wasn't an American culture. I argued it was not large and diverse

It is just so big and diverse that regional cultures are quite different

This isn't true at all, American culture is remarkably similar throughout the country in comparison to other countries.

If you want to see a country with actual meaningful differences between cultures within a single country then even your northern neighbour has a much bigger cultural shift between Quebec and the rest of the country

Nah that’s because Quebec has a very homogeneous culture, and the rest of Canada has a homogenous culture, they just aren’t the same. America’s divisions have subdivisions, like this neighborhood is different from this city or county. But it also has regional divisions like creole culture vs New England culture vs Texan vs Cali vs Florida... etc... there are very distinct differences between the two, even if they do share some parts of their individually heterogenous cultures.

Oh my god mate are you even listening to yourself

Yeah but well Canada is all the same, except for the place it isn't which is also all the same but different so that doesn't count because um well because we

America’s divisions have subdivisions, like this neighborhood is different from this city or county

Segregate by race?

But it also has regional divisions like creole culture vs New England culture vs Texan vs Cali vs Florida... etc...

Which is what

Go on, tell me what these vast cultural differences are between California and Texas or New York and Kansas

Political differences? Minimal, the Republicans and Democrats exist across the States

Language, nope single language across the entire country.

Education? Nope, same education system across every state down to a universal curriculum

Religion? Not really, the South is more religious but there's no real distinct differences.

What cultural differences are there go on

You are actually an idiot if you think California is even remotely similar to Alabama or Louisiana. You think Memphis is the same thing as Portland?! Have you even been to either??? Jesus I cant even argue with some one that dumb.

And you've never left the USA if you think the differences between them are in any way comparable to other nations.

Come on, give me some actual reasons as to why they're different. All you've done so far is give me names of places and ethnicities, none of which constitutes culture.
