Do the former colonies even have a unique culture? Looking from the outside, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia are no more than dispossessed brits.

Just look at the USA compared to these places, im sorry we dont have glorious inventions like vegemite and fake bacon.

Australia is very different to England, Canada and New Zealand and they're all very different to each other
>>
>>71558464
Yes, but you'll probably see more differences driving along the east coast here than in the anglosphere

>>71558580

>American culture
I weep with laughter every time I see somone mention such a concept
>>
>>71558285
They're similar but not the same. It'd be like saying that the ex-Soviet states are the same as Russia.
>>
>>71558285
Why don't americans/canadians speak like brits but aussies/new zealaners/south africans do?
>>

wrong board lad?

You will unironically see more difference driving from Manchester to Liverpool than in the entire USA.

Deep south New Zealand is absolutely nothing like UK and the rest of NZ
We have a strong colonial culture we are the descendants of farmers and sailors in the 1800s
>>
Australia isn't even homogenous across states, let alone compared to other english colonies
>>
>>71559160
Deep south kiwis sound nothing like Brits
We roll our rs like Americans do
>>
>>71559160
new zealanders and south africans have similar accents, australians don't outside of Adelaide
>>
>>71561675
and by that I mean similar to eachother, the australian accent is distinct except for a few sounds in the South Australian accent
>>
If Americans have no culture then why do euros always complain about "Americanization"?
Cod it be that our culture is just so prevalent that we appear to not have a culture at all?
>>
>>71561729
American culture obviously exists, it's just so fucking bland that people say you have no culture
>>
>>71561753
>American culture
>bland
Jesus Christ you are fucking retarded
American culture is the largest cultural influence on New Zealand, and probably Australia as well
My gen z sister grew up obsessed with old American culture history fashion and films from 1960s to 1800s, and she is a normie with normie friends who are also Americanised
>>
>>71561933
being influential doesn't make it not bland

Americans were too stupid to handle English so they made up their own simplified version.

Have six, mate.

They are intertwined. Get off the chan and do your school work.

You're a pretentious numale cuck that doesn't like fun, what "culture" do you deem not bland, Kek
>>
>>71562090
what has any of this got to do with my post

back to /pol/ and reddit
>>
>>71561957
Our exported culture is even more blend than the rest because no "human" level culture flows through multinational corporations with fingers ask over the globe. The internet has rectified this a bit but it is still largely the case. If my knitter of British cultures came from their cultural exports Id have nothing positive to say about it.
>>
>>71562114
that's nice except no other culture in the world comes across as bland, just America's, despite also coming through cultural exports
>>

Nuke Auckland when?

Why don't you answer my question instead of going ad hominem?

>>71562011
I only post here on Friday and Saturday nights, prob some other kiwi anon you're talking about
Some places in NZ people have /pol/ tier conversations in public
We aren't sensitive cucks like Australians and North Islanders

The first English speaking settlements outside of the British Isles were in North America (Canada, USA, the West Indies) in the 1500s.

The 1500s were a long, long time ago. North American English evolved over 500 years from now archiac dialects from the West of England.

English accents in England developed parallel to what was going on in North America (interaction with non-anglos; natives, french, spanish, immigration from continental Europe, western expansion).

By comparison, the rest of the English speaking world is much later, and are either colonies founded entirely by British transplants, or are directly ruled over by British administrators.

English in Africa, Asia, and Oceania are directly from Britain. English in the Americas developed in isolation from Britain over the course of 500 years, and the end result is two distinct branches of English; North American English and Britonic English.

>>71563135
this is fundamentally incorrect
>>
>>71563178
yeah everyone knows england shipped it's criminals to australia, and everyone knows the criminals are lower class and have the thickest accents.
>>
>>71563201
at no point in Australia's history were convicts the majority of settlers, private settlers from all over the british isles formed the majority.

the convicts had a lot of irish and welsh representation, so the Australian accent developed as an amalgamation of all the different british accents plus an influence from abos. The irish and welsh influence is particularly notable when you compare the eastern state (the convict colonies) accents to South and Western Australia (private settlements with English settlers, but even that difference was reduced after the gold rush in western australia filled the colony with australians from the east.

the Australian accent is fundamentally distinct from the english accent.
