European vs American Culture

[GiCa]

Lots of bulshits from Unome.

He never has set a foot in Europe I Guess

Europe is not an Aristocracy. We are not stuck up rich kids.

Europe is smarter than USA because is small so have to make smart solutions

Also the sense of geographical space is different and we are more feudal like since we are different countries and not just 1 country. And I mean we are because Europe is a political sovra union called E.U.

Even if we make erasmus during university years (aka orgasmus) we don t mix with each other and we have different cultures and Languages

The whole socialist strategy is to enrich the poorest by impoverishing artificially the richest, and not by giving the opportunity of the poorest to catch up the richest, legitimately, by working.

As you see this is a very USA mentality. It s your mentality because you are from USA but it a not in Europeanentality. Because we are different.

You have a foreign culture and way of thinking

[GiCa]

USA and Europe are like Night and Day

There is too big of a difference between us.

Socialism is essential. To help the poorer from injustices.

Does it seem right to you that I must die of illness if I m momentarily unemployed or unlucky in work like?

It s not right at all. It s unhuman dign of beasts

That is the policy of extreme socialism aka communism. Socialism in western European countries is of different sorts. Countries are driven by the capitalistic thought, same as in the USA, but people in return have advanced social rights and benefits.

Europeans are the original white people. America is this weird amalgamation of Anglo-Germanic culture with a dose of extreme nationalism and a lower IQ than the average European. I've visited America a number of times and it's such a bland place compared to Europe. All you have is strip malls and boring ass suburbs in 90% of the places. Dull skyscrapers and shitty identity politics. They say America is the dominant exporter of Western culture but honestly it just seems like made-up stuff compared to the historical value of Europe. "American culture" is just black rap music, flashy clothing, and a thriving Hollywood industry. All life in America is eat, sleep, work, consume, have sex, go to bed. There is no soul to the life of most North Americans. Even Scandinavia has a better work-life balance than that hell-hole.

Some of the natural beauty can be pretty astounding, I'll admit (such as the Grand Canyons or West Coast Rockies) but it's not like Europe is lacking in natural diversity either. We also have beaches and snowy mountains too. So the tradeoff becomes minimal.

The big difference is that the United States is a country and Europe is a continent with many countries.

Well technically America is a Union of small countries under our laws, so it's somewhat more similar but far more centralized than the EU. There are only a handful of states who don't have the right to secede.

The United States is culturally more uniform than Europe, national laws are stronger in the United States than the laws of the European Union in their countries, if you are right most of the states if they wish they can separate if they wish by going through certain processes legal first but in Europe the same thing happens.

I actually agree with OP on this one. Europe is weird in the sense that it's far more socially/economically progressive, yet at the same is very elitist when it comes to preserving tradition and original European blood. American discrimination is based on classism not racism IMO. There is no "American culture", it's just the rich domineering the poor. I prefer the Old World mentality TBH. Europe has culture and history that you can't experience in America. America feels very bone dry and materialistic, it has different cities and shit but there's no "feel" to it.

You are right it is because Hamiltonian federalism won out over Jeffersonian statism.
