Most cultures stand out but American culture doesn’t because basically everywhere has some sorta American influence.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink26•4 months agoI use the argument that consumerism is American culture. Anything from giant takeaways, to excess consumption at holidays, Costco, Walmart, even the American Healthcare system is designed to be sold.
