Yes!! We have this huge problem now. Each house have like 5 cars on average and nowhere to park. It is getting ridiculous and there is no such a thing as public transit. This is huge. I started this topic to remind myself of things I like and dislike about mine and i hope this does the same to others.Dislike: over reliance on cars/car culture in general
Honestly what I like majorily about USA culture its ability to smartly influence outside of it like alot of very important social phenomenas take shape in USA before the rest of the world. It is like a giant social and economical experiments that the world can watch and learn from. I dont think the content of whats being influenced Is necessarily beneficial all the time, but it is interesting that it does happen. Very little that other cultures can have such a strong and permanent influence On others.Like: honestly have no idea, American culture has very few redeeming qualities, if anyone can think of them let me know.
Maybe it would be good to mention the culture you are from when answering the questionWhat are Things that you Like/Dislike About Your Culture that other Cultures did it worse/better?
Sure I did edit my response. Thanks for bringing that upMaybe it would be good to mention the culture you are from when answering the question
I agree with you. I havent experienced first hand myself when i lived in Canada for 11 years as people generally seem to be liberal and tolerant in Toronto. I saw documentary on Portland and it seemed that it was a great profressive city before too much protesting starting to take place in it which really made things bad enough that it is a shadow now for its former Self. I think this is bound to happen in major american cities and canada has more of a wealth gap problem than a political divisiveness.I hate a lot about living in California. Just imagine the worst of Twitter except almost everyone is like that in real life as well. I wonder if it might be because of the cultural diversity inevitably causing so much conflict and forcing too many people to pivot too hard into being hyper obsessed with wokeness. I have heard that it can also be this bad in other metropolitan areas even in states like Texas or other countries like Canada. I don't even know if it's possible to have this sort of cultural diversity, which I do admire, without an unfortunate amount of discord and strife.
It sucks because there are a lot of advantages to living in or near big cities (mainly when it comes to food) but then there are also problems like increased rates of crime and people being divided on who to blame for all the crime or what to do about it while it just gets bigger and bigger. The actor Seth Rogen once had his car broken into with his windows smashed and just nonchalantly said "it's what happens when you live in a big city". As if he just accepted that it's a natural progression of a diverse population. He and many others who live in California and have accepted this as the norm are only saying that because they live comfortably enough that it doesn't matter to them or they're just trying to use their politics to cope. Either way it sucks and I just wish something could change about it but I don't think it ever will.I agree with you.
