I live in California. I’ve been to Alabama, Portugal, and Latvia (just this year for the Baltics, great places). I disagree.
Parts of the deep south are just fucking alien in a way I’ve never felt anywhere else.
Different places in Europe are, of course, different. But different in a way you can wrap your head around with an undercurrent of commonality. The same things being done in interestingly different ways by normal people.
The sense of dislocation and strangeness I feel in certain (not all) places in the deep south is far beyond anything I’ve experienced, not just in Europe, but also Asia, South America, and North Africa.
It isn’t bullshit. I don’t what else to tell you. 50 states, each with their own cultures and dialects. If you don’t want to believe it, that’s your business, but that’s the way it is.
If you say so. Doesn’t help that you jumped straight to calling me stupid for trying to tell you how it is. You don’t bother arguing because you don’t know what you’re talking about to begin with. Go back to reddit. You fit in better there.
If I thought you were amenable to changing your mind I’d consider arguing my point, but I’ve yet to see an American with such a brain-dead opinion change their mind. It would be like trying to convince a MAGAt that Donnie is unfit to be President.
The differences between California and Alabama are still an order of magnitude or more smaller than between e.g. Portugal and Latvia.

All you just told me is that you haven’t been to either. You couldn’t be more wrong.

I’m not making any bullshit claims about my country. You are.

Cool. So you resort to insults and unsupported denial as your strongest arguments. You got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.

You aren’t arguing. You’re just saying “nuh uh” and “ur stupid”. Well, you got me! I am stupid. Sorry for bothering you.
Re-read my first sentence. I know.
