Even on this blog we've countless 'well america is p. big and states are sort of different so it's exactly as varied as europe and I get to treat europe as a cohesive whole' arguments.

While there are certainly subgroups in the US as varied, if not more than Europe, no, the US as a whole is not a good comparison to Europe. The basic problem is the rather extraordinary situation of the US having a fairly cohesive culture across great swathes of land.

HAHAHAHAHA. I was there for that, and no. There was no "Europe is a monolith" in that conversation. What there was was "The US has regional differences," stated exactly as written. You then decided that this MUST mean that every American thinks the US has more diversity than all of Europe, and began a ridiculous crusade to try and persuade everyone that, having spend a ~whole entire YEAR~ over here, you knew ever so much more about our culture than we, the native-born, do. You were, as I recall, literally the only person to be holding these beliefs in the entire wankfest.
