Which culture would you say matched the culture of America as a whole?
Berkley or Dallas?

You know what's un-American? Trying to divide Americans by conceptually casting them out of the country like this. Dallas is America. So is Berkley.

I didn't ask what was unamerican. You have no idea which city more closely resembles the culture of America?

What exactly would you describe as "the culture of America" to start with?

Do you even think nation's have cultures?

It's spelled Berkeley.
Of course they do. But the two cities are equally American, so by definition they can't be more or less American than each other. You can compare them to other places, but you can't push them out of being American.

I didn't say either one was not American. I'm saying one represents the overall culture of America better than the other. It has to . There are large differences in the cultures of the two cities.
What you're trying to do is declare one city un-American by declaring it out of step with the nation's culture, and use that to justify ignoring and vilifying it.
Another manufactured battle in the culture wars.

Don't tell me what I'm trying to do you little fascist antifa wanna be. So, you refuse to say which city typifies American culture thr best?
You have no idea where I'm going with this but you have extreme confidence you do. That's because you live in a bubble where you only listen and validate ideas that are consistent with your ideology.
We will move onto step two since you refuse step one.
I feel that Dallas is more representative of American culture and berkley has swerved from that ideal significantly.
Part of that is due to the enemy within our borders that has worked ceaselessly for at least 50 years to fundamentally transform America as obama would say.
They have been more successful in berkley than in Dallas and there is a reason for that.
Berkley seems to be one of the places that has been the home to unassimilated immigrants whose home culture was vastly different than the one they moved into starting in the late 60's.
All I'm saying there is a price to pay for taking in people who do not share our values and are here only for economic reasons.

Well, that ought to move the conversation along in a rational manner.
Are you reading the same thread I am? Because, yeah he did.
