America's fragmented culture?
I suppose you refer to South America, because the North is not BY ANY MEANS fragmented.
You can go anywhere in the US, from West Coast to East Coast and you see:
Everybody speaking the same language. Some small places will also speak Spanish and French, but everybody speaks English.
Everybody having the same religion -puritan culture. There is a significant amount of people believing in creationism as something Christian, when in fact Catholic or other views of Christianity had not accepted that for centuries.
Everybody sharing their own political believes. All believing the same mythology(the founding fathers like sacred creatures, the Constitution and so on).
Everybody watching the same TV channels, going to the same stores(Wallmark...)
They play the same sports. They go to a basketball play and first thing they do is put their hands over the heart and sing the same hymn.
Now compare that to Europe when you cross the channel from France to England , and you have different language, different cultures, people driving on the other side, values change, religion change, even weather is completely different.
Denmark is totally different to Holland, to France, to Switzerland, to Poland, to Italy, to Spain to Greece...
- adventured 11y agoI take it you've never actually traveled across the US. Hispanic culture in Los Angeles is noticeably different from white culture in Boston, which is noticeably different from black culture in New Orleans. First generation Filipino culture in Seattle is noticeably different from second generation Cuban culture in Miami. What does South Dakota culture have in common with Little Armenia in LA? Only the minimum things that all people share, otherwise they're very different. Is most of rural Texas similar to the cities of New York or San Francisco? Not even remotely close. America is in fact wildly diverse, from food to media to customs.
