I think most are thinking about a higher proportion of adults living at the same household as their parents in some countries when they say that. However in recent year the proportion in the US got a lot closer to Latin American countries. Then again it probably significantly varies by race, ethnic background etc. which doesn't invalidate the anecdotal evidence people might have.
> cultures with such a broad brush weird, especially
US is very heterogeneous but it works reasonably well in many other places besides a handful of outliers.
- DragonStrength 2y agoYou’re coming across as disagreeing with me, but it’s unclear about what. Your response to the out-of-context bit at the bottom seems to agree with my central statement about the negative framing of American values in the OP, so I’m very confused what your point is.
- Wytwwww 2y ago> but it’s unclear about what. True. Looking back you hadn't really made any coherent enough arguments in your comments that could be agreed or disagreed with.
