How come people say America has no culture despite their culture is the most dominant around the world?
>>
American "culture" is a symbol of the modern culture in a sense, and we generally consider things that were born long ago as cultures.

Literally everything in the modern world that matters is American. Coca Cola, computers, space travel, the internet, airplanes, the list goes on.

liberalism =/= culture

I think of our culture as cowboys, rednecks, military, bbqs, burgers, texas, wild west, guns, etc.
>>
>>52422777
Nobody seriously makes that claim, though. It's all bantz.
>>
>>52422777
It's not, the Chinese are still communists, Europeans are still fags, Russians are still anti-Western world etc..
Watching an American movie doesn't suddenly make you an American culturally. Besides even that industry is jam packed with foreigners largely Brits too..

>coca cola
shit tier drink
>computers
Alan Turing was essentially the main pioneer, he was british.
>space travel

Pic related.

US culture rapes the world

But the culture isn't real

Imagine a call to the police like that

"Officer I was raped!"
"Describe him for us"
"He didn't exist, but he raped me"
>>
makes them feel better or something about being cucked by our corporations

Maybe if you put a human being on another fucking celestial object using pencils and paper, you'd understand how massive of an achievement it was.
>>
>>52424832
Obviously all nations could do that if they pump the money in it but just dont do it for many reasons but I would say it's not really useful to have people walking around on the moon again especially if you have robots.

America confirmed for flying pencils to the moon

Have to keep pumping money into welfare programs for those immigrants, huh?

>Obviously all nations could do that if they pump the money in it
that just proves that usa is able to manage its resources so well that we can send people to them moon and not collapse like the ussr did, ussr didn't even get to land on the moon.

American culture is shoved down the throat of everyone so people forget that it's even American culture.
>>
>>52425675
I think it proves more that there was a group of very smart innovative people and it says not that much about the USA in general, the only thing it shows is that the USA was willing to fund science (even if it was more to showboat) which is a very good thing so yes for that I would say good job USA.
The communists were shitty in managing things though and I agree with that.

>>52425391
It is indeed a sad state of affairs.
>>
>>52426028
American culture only reaches where people are willing to accept it. Nobody forced your fellow Danes to buy American products, watch American tv shows/movies, or listen to American music.
>>
>>52426028
If we wanted to shove our culture down your throat we'd invade you. Don't forget America's military is as strong as the entire worlds combined forces
>>
>>52423721
Aeroplanes aren't American m8. Just because the Wright Brothers flew a powered glider for a reasonable length of time doesn't mean they're yours.

The web is ours btw. We created the computer, Russian got space travel and coca cola is a shit.
>>
>>52426448
What's the point of a post like this? We'd never, ever invade Denmark even if we could. That's like telling your neighbor that if he doesn't like the music you're blasting, you could come over and shoot him. You could, but you never would unless you were psychotic

Americans can't into culture, all those mass shows and tv can't be considered cuckture, it's a gum.
