That could be argued pretty strongly yeah

2018-08-30 02:51:27 UTC  

But I think that undersells the uniqueness of capitalism. I don't think just because a society is homogenous that it can't create diversity and competition of thought within a single culture

2018-08-30 02:51:43 UTC  

That depends on the culture

2018-08-30 02:51:53 UTC  

case in point, "white culture"

2018-08-30 02:51:58 UTC  

pfft.

2018-08-30 02:51:59 UTC  

Which is to say, European.

2018-08-30 02:52:04 UTC  

Very diverse

2018-08-30 02:52:06 UTC  

wtf is 'white culture' even

2018-08-30 02:52:10 UTC  

Don't get me started on 'White Culture' or 'European Culture'.

2018-08-30 02:52:20 UTC  

White people don't have culture.

2018-08-30 02:52:21 UTC  

even within one country you have multiple various groups which do not see the world the same way

2018-08-30 02:52:23 UTC  

But it literally is lmao

2018-08-30 02:52:30 UTC  

They have culture"S"

2018-08-30 02:52:37 UTC  

Don't get triggered by the use of words after having literally just said we need to defend words.

2018-08-30 02:53:03 UTC  

Italian Croatian Spainish French German Nordic Irish Scottish English Welsh

2018-08-30 02:53:10 UTC  

hell some of those are even within one damn nation

2018-08-30 02:53:17 UTC  

and there's more where that came from

2018-08-30 02:53:23 UTC  

rye we could take most of those countries and divide them up into far more groups

2018-08-30 02:53:31 UTC  

So America has an Italian Croatian Spainish French German Nordic Irish Scottish English Welsh culture?

2018-08-30 02:53:34 UTC  

Oh yeah, I know.

2018-08-30 02:53:40 UTC  

As someone who is Greek and German I can verify that Greek culture and German culture is 100% the same, if you are a Progressive who has no fucking clue about Greek or German culture.

2018-08-30 02:53:44 UTC  

No, it has multiple subgroups of American culture

2018-08-30 02:53:53 UTC  

America is America 😃

2018-08-30 02:53:58 UTC  

Woodchuck you almost got me with that damn line

2018-08-30 02:54:02 UTC  

Which is distinct from Canadian, Australian, British, French and German culture

2018-08-30 02:54:04 UTC  

I was about to angry-type at you.

2018-08-30 02:54:14 UTC  

lol

2018-08-30 02:54:35 UTC  

There is no white monoculture

2018-08-30 02:54:40 UTC  

^ ^ ^

2018-08-30 02:54:49 UTC  

There's no Asian monoculture.

2018-08-30 02:54:58 UTC  

It belittles the vast history of Europe to say such. It's historical cuckoldry

2018-08-30 02:55:01 UTC  

Point i think that could be made, even if you look at french speaking canadians the cultures vary

2018-08-30 02:55:07 UTC  

If you try to lump a korean in with the japanese you're going to have a very angry korean on your hand.

2018-08-30 02:55:18 UTC  

and likely an angry japanese person.

2018-08-30 02:55:29 UTC  

i did once while dining tables and said korean man had a very good sense of humor about it

2018-08-30 02:55:39 UTC  

'DO I LOOK LIKE A ISLANDER TO YOU!" (in a satirical way, then ordered multiple beers)

2018-08-30 02:55:46 UTC  

Was he native or immigrant?

2018-08-30 02:55:51 UTC  

I would say as close to one being white is the American culture, though. Yeah we're diverse in other respects but the lawful and traditional side of our culture is very anglo/european which is undeniably caucasian.

2018-08-30 02:56:01 UTC  

immigrant to US but obvious grew up, mostly spoke korean

2018-08-30 02:56:14 UTC  

i was young i wouldn't usually have asked but i didnt know any better

2018-08-30 02:56:21 UTC  

So he had enough experience with the US to know we're kinda dumb to foreign culture.
