Is Latin America culturally western to outsiders? We consider ourselves western, but I've heard many Americans and Euros say we're not, so it's confusing.
>>
Not all of them but we're part of western.

Brazil is mostly Italian and Germanic so I'd say yes

We have so much portuguese and dutch heritage too.

Parts of it yes.

A lot of countries still have pockets of hardcore indigenous nations that are not western and are not interested in western values, or principles.

Mapuches in Chile and Argentina are an example.

>>52322235

Argentina? Western? Did you see what they do in Japan?

You're part of western culture

Its a subsection but its still western

Latinos are interesting because they blend Western culture with Amerindian culture. I feel like its impossible to put Latinos in a single box. They are their own thing. In my opinion in the future the whole world will look a lot more like Latinos do now, very mixed group of people.

I consider the southern cone western. The rest I'm not so sure, parts of Brazil maybe.

>>52322429
This is basically how I see my city and region. At the dawn of the 19th century, half my city was either portuguese or their sons. Not to mention that we were once the Capital of Portugal and the whole court fled to here. So, as long as you consider Portugal western and the footprint they left here, yes, we are western, indeed a subsection, like european latins, or scandinavians or central europeans.
This hypotesis can be applied to most regions in Brazil/Argentina/Uruguay.

Latin america must be the most westernized cesspool on earth.
Not even Japan is this westernized.
There was a guy I met from Murrica, he was amazed that he could find every channel and series he used to watch at home here, in spanish of course.
Then he got kicked out of the house he was living cause abusive behavior and returned to america lel.

>>52321636
It varies from country to country. Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Puerto Rico are western as fuck. Those are the only countries I know well enough to have an opinion about.

You're not westernized, you are western.

British and Spanish tv applies here too, less than american tv or course.
Also we used see here a shiton of Brazilian channels, at least in the tv service we had at home in my childhood.
Why the fuck are Brazilian channels allowed in spanish speaking countries?? That disgust me.

In cold war terms, you arent first world or westerner, because you guys were neutral (like us).

But at least, I personally consider Chile, Argentina, Mexico and Colombia as westerners
>>
Yes we are. The amerindian culture is so supressed anyways its laughable. The worst part is the patagonia, they were amerindians 100 years ago and now there is not a single trace of amerindian "culture". Roca's victory was overwhelming

You're not. "The west" consist of the western european countries and Canada and USA. (By western european I mean countries that were not a part of the USSR or on balkan)
Latin America as well as Africa therefore cannot be western

We have them, but not even close to the number of bolivians in argentina.

We are lucky on that aspect

I`ve have been in the US and Canada before, Chile is western in every aspect, the only difference is that USA and Canada are rich and they have better infrastructure and their whites are from germanic/slav origin. Chile, Argentina and Urulel are western but poor compared to North america

That your society's underpinnings are derived from the Christian religion and classical Greek philosophy/the Renaissance/Enlightenment. In short, all the things that comprise the fundament of European culture.
