What do you hate about American culture the most that you wish you could change?

For me it’s the following:

1. The selfishness. I wish we wanted to look out for each other, in the form of universal healthcare, fair wages, etc. Or voluntarily wearing masks during a pandemic without babbling about “muh freedoms.”

2. The over-regulation and the criminalization and over-enforcement of every stupid little thing. Shoplifting is a crime. Being in possession of alcohol in a national park shouldn’t be.

3. The prudishness and the hang ups with nudity. Rape and child molestation should be sex crimes worthy of sex offender registration. Public urination and paying for sex shouldn’t be. And nudity at the lake, at the beach, and on TV should be seen as natural as it is in Europe.

4. The guns!

I agree and disagree with a number of these statements.

There is always going to be religion no matter what. It's a fact of life that societies will always have the need for religion. It's not going away. There is some need in the human psyche for a spiritual life evolves into religion. It was always thus and it can't be changed.

The anti intellectualism is part of the woke movement. Much of the intellectual, artistic and scientific progress has been made by men. So therefore it is developed by a patriarchy which makes it suspect. The Dead White Men's Society. Therefore we can't have the best. Fair enough we should be looking at other cultures and their achievements but our core western culture should not be torn down in pursuit of other views. The greatness of the white male genius among a few should be studied and appreciated. They have achieved work that even white men today cannot reach because of the environment and culture that has developed.

Xenophobia exists everywhere. Not just in the US. Moreso today which is why certain immigrant societies refuse to assimilate.

Education has also been affected by the woke movement. In lower education where tolerance has led to abuse and often bored and or frustrated teachers are just waiting for tenure and a well paid pension, often indifferent to the needs of individual students. In higher education with the growth of support for oppression of dissenting opinions and a horrifying religious intolerance.

I read something a while back on Reddit regarding sexuality posted by someone in Denmark, and I’ll paraphrase it here from what I remember:

“We all agree that people shouldn’t be fucking in the town square, yet if it happens we understand that it isn’t the end of the world. Here in Denmark, a police office would likely either tell them to get lost or issue a fine. Americans on the other hand, if they happen to see something like that, act like their eyeballs are going to melt out of their heads.”

I agree with that sentiment. I think we can all agree that public sex out in the open is extremely inappropriate, but the amount of actual harm caused is basically nothing. So you saw something tasteless. It’s far less offensive than a mass shooting.

by Anonymousreply 26September 30, 2024 12:51 AM

I have to agree with R2 and disagree a bit with R19. Anti-Intellectualism started way before the current woke movement. I’ve actually thought about it a lot, and for me it seems to have been a very concerted effort that began with FOX shows like Married with Children, or MTV Beavis and Butthead that glorified stupidity. And then daytime talk shows like Ricki Lake and Jerry Springer. First we laughed at it and then it’s what we became.

BUT I think a lesson was learned by the govt after the 60s in America. It’s MUCH easier to rule a large stupid mass of people than an educated populace that knows its rights, questions everything you do and fights back. So glorify stupidity, make intelligence seem suspect, elect a candidate based on whether or not you’d have a beer with them, etc…. Throw on top of that social media where you have the stupidest people becoming instant millionaires for the dumbest reason, and now you dont’t even need an education to live the American Dream. You have a populace of cogs and consumers, the ultimate capitalist machine.

Identity politics. And I know that it is a typical right wing criticism but it takes on extreme forms here in America all across the political spectrum. It’s the reason why we can’t have an intelligent debate and sensible solutions about our failing public schools, gun control, peace in the Middle East. The identity becomes bigger than the most pragmatic solution. And then we follow suite with politicians that speak to that identity. It’s fucking sickening. You can’t criticize fringe black politicians without being called an Uncle Tom. You can’t talk about gun control without being deemed anti Constitution.

I’m always reminded of my seething hatred for American suburbia whenever I drive out to the burbs to visit my dad at his assisted living place. Sure, the residential areas are usually not that bad if you don’t mind the constant smattering of split-levels everywhere. What I really hate are the commercially zoned areas where everything is a strip mall or big box. They’re miserable places to drive and navigate through, and if you have to actually walk in them, God help you.

R44 you’re missing the point I am making. Al was the main character. He is the person we see the world of the show through, who viewers identify with and see their own foibles in. The point you stated had to be observed but a smart viewer, like yourself. BUT it was never stated clearly as such.

You have a self admitted loser for a dad, a ditz for a mother, a bimbo for a daughter and a dork for a son. None of them redeeming in any way. It’s a great show, funny if you can see the different levels of humor like r44 and others. But most people didn’t see it that way. They laughed at intelligence and identified with stupidity.

I am saying the show helped introduce the idea that stupid is ok, because hey - aren’t we all?

The current sports/religion attitude that has taken over politics. Either deifying political figures or trotting out the cringy "Uncle so and so", "America's so and so" family nicknames because some people have a desperate need to want someone "relatable" to lead them. Instead of just getting someone who's best suited for the job. And going to the mat defending these people, even more so than they would their friends or family members. You don't KNOW them! Do you defend your bosses like this? Your doctors or your lawyers?

The mainstream news media, which is absolute shit. Wanna be celebrity-hacks posing as journalists telling you what to think because it's what they think. Cherrypicking what stories to cover because it suits their shows format. And gullible people cheering this on, because again, people now have a need to want someone to tell them how to think. Debating politics is basically listening to people vomit out whatever FOX news/MSNBC/CNN tell them.

[bold]Car culture[/bold] Tell someone you are going to Chicago from your home in Portland, Maine and he might ask, with an American abundance of enthusiasm, 'Oh, are you driving?!" Driving 1750 miles and 16 hours is always a possibility for Americans. The cost of driving €178-258) is within a very similar range to the cost of flying (€143-348) and even similar to the ranges of train-bus ( €99-332) and bus travel via 4 buses (€75-556) though at a harsh cost in time at 24 and 29 hours.

For a European, however, there is little chance that he would ever consider driving the similar distance of 1200km and 12 hours Rome and Vienna. He could fly one-way from Rome for €38 and 4.5 hours; take a train of 12 hours for €117 or a night train of the same time for half the price; or a bus for 15.5 hours and €60 -- and many other combinations of train/flight. But cars in the US are so much more than simple transportation. They are symbols of freedom, of road trips, of status, of suburban life, of rural life, strip malls and shopping malls and schools that you can't walk to are built along the highways that serve the cars, the highways that go everywhere that buses and trains don't. Bicycles? What? They are seen as pure nuisance and the opposite of status (I remember warning my European partner that a 30-something white man on a bicycle was often regarded as suspect or even with derision, the assumption that he had lost his driver's license and had to step down in the world because of too many DUIs.

It's crazy that highways were made such a priority, that urban centers were routinely bisected and sectioned and ruined with scheming contempt or cold indifference to urbanism and to residents. It's crazy that except for parts of the Northeast Corridor, the US has a terrible system of train transportation, not even a skeleton of a system but a few scattered bones or lines that are inconvenient, unpleasant, and oddly costly. It's crazy that a patchwork system of Chinese buses is both vastly better and vastly cheaper than the tattered remains of a once extensive bus network. And it's crazy that a few hours flight between non-hub US cities can cost more than a trip from Chicago to London (had they colluded in a cabal, the automobile manufacturers could scarcely have done better in working against airlines.)

[bold]American exceptionalism and Hyper-competitiveness[/bold] Both strong points already mentioned. I'll just add that as an American living in Europe, I see all the time groups of American tourists who seem a little disappointed not to have a red carpet rolled out for them. In my observation, a significant part of the 'loud talking American' image is true, but it's not entirely natural. Not everyone in the US talks like a second grade teacher to a class of unruly children (or Rachel Ray); I think it's to draw attention to their Americanness, to solicit questions and conversation...All so that they can engage these foreigners in whose country they are in a point-by-point comparison of what the US has that's bigger, better, stronger, faster, etc.

Of course travel is inevitably about comparison, the geography, the architecture, the people, the customs, the colors, the sounds, the food, it's either different or similar to what we have known from other places. But I swear that Americans will compare to death and beyond any tiny little thing and it always comes around to a explanation that the Oktoberfest in Munich is really just like the Iowa State Fair, or gelato is exactly like the soft-serve at the DairyQueen in wherever. Nothing may be left uncompared, and always with a competitive bent. Everything is bigger, of course, and by extension better (you'd think they were talking about dicks, except, well, that comparison doesn't hold up so well..)

4.Divergent gender culture. Maybe 2% of the population has actual gender dysmorphia requiring therapy, medical transition and ultimately surgery. The rest are hopping on a trend due to social media influencing. Medical complex at it again.

5. Abortion access. 1 trimester procedures should be free for any woman that asks and covered by Medicare. Blanket prohibitions on abortion prevent women from seeking access earlier resulting in more risky second trimester and third trimester abortions sometimes performed in a corporate clinic.

Agree with most of the above, plus I would add rampant unchecked capitalism and the inescapable, soulless corporate culture that has taken over everything since the '80s. I'm not against capitalism per se - but the greed and materialism is out of contol. Everything feels so artificial and you find the same chain restaurants and stores everywhere... it's depressing.

by Anonymousreply 75September 30, 2024 4:00 PM

The rampant capitalism has created cities where properties are 'worth' 50 million+ Only because a small minority of people are 'earning' ridiculous money and they have to spend it somewhere. The gap between the top 5% and the bottom 95% is insane these days. The only solutions suggested work on an individual level only. People (regardless of politics) will point at one person who went from the trailer park to Harvard and say 'see! The 60 million people living in rural America and post industrial towns need to study and pull themselves up' They say it with a straight face too, as though millions of people showing up in coastal cities qualified as programmers wouldn't be a major problem! We need more factory workers than senior programmers. More teachers than enterprise account managers.

This manifests in crazy ways with millions of Americans believing that they could be the individual success. Televangelists say 'send me your last $100 and baby Jesus will send it back to you ten fold' MLMs are all over the place. Shady people fill Ramada Inn conference rooms to the brim with people attending a 'property investment course' where poor schmucks pay $5,000 to learn the secret to becoming a millionaire in 6 months. Americans lost 6 billion to crypto scams last year - 'This random person on Telegram wants me to be a millionaire, no red flags there at all'.

These people are all so sure that their ship will come in any day that they won't support sensible legislation. 'But I don't want to pay taxes when I start my house flipping and become a millionaire!'

I think the MAGATs, climate change denialists, gun nuts and underregulated financial industies are responsible for most of what's wrong with the USA. Some of these are remnants of the confederacy. Anti-intellectualism is woven deep into American culture, where intellectual men in previous centuries were reviled as sisssies and homosexuals.. It has nothing to do with being woke and the use of that word is a red flag.

I also think a rigorous public school education is almost impossible, given excessive parental interference, aversion to grading and flunking, overemphasis of self esteem, and influence of social media. Social media is a blight, not just in the US, messing up attention spans, elevating seemingly perfect people as idols, and teaching stupid, superficial values.

I hate the way that you’re not allowed to give any dissenting opinion on anything. For example:

I’m a democrat. I don’t care for Kamala Harris because I think she’s a hypocrite. I’ll still vote for her because I don’t want Trump. But she has admitted to smoking marijuana in college, and as a prosecutor sent people to jail for doing the exact same thing she did in college. At best, that shows an egregious lack of moral character, to ruin someone’s life for something victimless that she did herself. But if you dare mention this in liberal circles, it’s either “Trump is worse” or “you don’t like her because she’s black.” No issue can be viewed on its own.

But they will be. It's not so much a matter of what shouldn't be done and how to prevent it by way of municipal codes, but --to my mind-- more constructively considered as how to control a problem that can't practically be curbed by legislation and policing. Where I live where there are concentrations of bars as well as places where people gather at night, pissing on walls is seen as an inevitability. The response isn't to do undercover busts and steep fines, it's simply to adjust the street sanitation standards. All the streets are brushed down or hosed down every night; some more thorougly than others according to use patterns, but in places where significant public pissing occurs after bar hours, the solution is to give extra attention to the problem and to time the washings for just before daylight to have things clean as the streets fill with businesses and coffee bars open and cafes put out their tables and chairs.

I don't see a better solution short of making the city more boring and policing the fuck out of everything.

The perception is that you are your career, that is where your value is, and if you don't have a profession and just a job, you're considered less than. Retirees aren't valued much except for their voting group (usually Boomers or The Silent Generation).

That the American people have rarely questioned the necessity of a 40 hr (or more) work week and have never thought, why are we doing this? while knocking off early or loafing around on Fridays. No one really wants to work a 5 day work week, why do we still persist? Other countries have siesta hour/hours and definitely are not working weekends, holidays and are off many Fridays.

That Americans persist in wanting their 1.94 kids even though research shows more couples have a better quality of life with less than that.

There's something seriously wrong with our society valuing influencers, celebrities with zero talent and are famous for being famous, and sports stars more than great teachers, scientists, or writers. Look at who is rewarded financially and who struggles. How many people still read something other than their phones? Girls want to look like the Kardashians and guys want to look like their favorite sports star (the Mahomes broccoli cut). They want to talk like them. Many of these kids aren't exposed to the arts otherwise because it's not taught in school anymore.

It's been mentioned many times already, but for profit healthcare. Why is this a thing? Why can't we get rid of it? The average American doesn't like it. Are the medical lobbies STILL that powerful? Why is it I can get treated by a provider and get my antibiotics and paracetamol in the UK for less than a pound, and they not bill my insurance, but in the US I can't get my asthma inhaler refill after 3 months of not seeing the doctor, because I now need a virtual visit? (They want to bill my insurance, that's why!) My asthma sure hasn't gone anywhere and the medication is still the same. So dumb.

R167 I don’t care about pajamas while shopping if your hot and fit but it seems like lately the fatties love wearing their motherfucking pajamas out in public. In Target and everything just like you stated. Like why? Do they not have any pride?

The hypermilitarization of everything. People wear camo. Drive around in what amounts to tanks. Own scary guns.

Big, fat, ugly, ghetto, black women with enormous asses in stretch pants.

Where the hell does this come from? And why are black women in America so goddamn fat? European black women are thin and beautiful.
