Buddy of mine and I were chatting on Discord and we ended up having a conversation about this topic.

Namely imagine you just put two people in a room. One from New Jersey and one from LA and observe

Wild how different cultures can be even inside a country.

What do y’all think? Is it due to the size of the US (geographically)?

      I’m gonna make the argument that cultures between the us and other countries are also massively different in a lot of ways :)

          I think there are some easy social cognates for sure but I think there are also lots of differences in attitudes and speaking styles. Social expectations, public considerations, govt expectations, etc etc
