Do you think this large hodgepodge of millions of people from different countries has a culture?
>>
>>90933343
Only the South has a culture. Specifically Texas.

No, its just an Economic zone to plunder and misuse.

no matter how "conglomerated" people get we will always have reasons to divide into groups, get guns and start shooting eachother

I'm buying my guns for the 4chan vs facebook wars of 2075

4chan will have the lockdown on quality meme development, places like facebook are going to want that potential, because as we already know, memes are actually brainwashing

a house, wife, 2.5 kids, car and a dog living in cul de sac culture.

yeah i'd say there's a lot to it. there are easily 7 distinct regions, probably another 3-4 if you want to cut it apart. a homogeneous culture? no definitely not, but there are regions that are entirely distinct, and arguing otherwise shows some ignorance
>>
American culture is kind of loose, and ill-defined, it's more like a rough set of ideals, and even those are bickered about.

Individual states have much more cohesive cultures and identities. Texas is a good example of this.

American literature is my favorite. They all have this idea of a YUGE place, no frontiers, just you against the horizon. I love it.
It's everywhere, in movies and music as well. This little idea, surely caused by geography itself, makes American literature (the old one anyway) gain loads in meaning. Our only Nobel is basically a Faulkner imitator too.
If nothing else, Americans have literature on par with Russia. Perhaps better.

I'm actually from Houston, just posting from my hotel room in Guadalajara. At the IAC, came to see Musk's Mars colonization talk and see all the cool technical presentations.

Wow, great thread man. No, there is no culture here. Please keep posting these same threads over and over though, I'm sure you'll find some confirmation bias along the way somewhere.

I would actually love threads about celebration of American culture, but I don't know how /pol/ that would be. It's not exactly subversive.

America is weird, it's the latino of culture. A whole bunch of different influences made it into a unique thing that is undeniably a separate part of what made it

its basically mafia movies and jfk and ww2 thats most of the culture oh and jewish movies communism and fucking gay shit, and we came up with every drug culture

>>90933343
theres a broad american culture but the more prominent aspects of culture in america are more fractured

>>90933574
as a native Texan related to some founders of small towns outside of San Antonio, I agree. it's gotten way to pc and pussifed. I dream of saving up and buying my grandfather's dad's ranch up in Lampasas and not being an office drone one day.

Literally everything is American culture. From the movies you watch to the food you eat. I have know fucking clue whats going on in "Europe", but I can guarantee that those limey frogs know all about the US election. Even the supposed ethnic food has been Americanized to hell and back. We won the war bitches.

It's basically globalism and hard core liberalism, combined.

>>90937729

I'm sorry, I just don't have the words to express how wrong you are.

I even forgot to copy over my smug anime girl folder to my travel laptop, so I can't give you the dismissal you properly deserve.

Absolutely. We export everything that is known as "cool"

Watch Leafs and Eurotrash (excluding UK) try to be cool, it's embarrassing beyond belief.

My Antonia is comfy as fuck. Train Dreams also. Huck Finn obviously. Revolutionary Road. No Country For Old Men (and/or Blood Meridian.) Death of a Salesman. Catcher in the Rye. Of Mice and Men. (These last three are starter kit tier, but good of course.)

English grad student here. I could go on forever. Go to /lit/ and ask for a top 100 list of American lit.

Fear and Loathing is a must. Also Day if the Locust.

It's hard to stop listing, honestly.

>>90933343
Yes. It's called gtfo my business.
Only in America do we blow up our own federal buildings and threaten war with the government and train by tens/hundreds of thousands for it everyday. It's a unique feature.
