is spain hardcore conservative, compared to states/countries beyond them?

sure the veneer may be different, and the costume, but politically all west europeans are basically on the same page about absolutely everything - which is not true for the broader US, where politics occupy different planets

plus even that veneer of euro diversity is fading - english is becoming the lingua franca, and everyone wears the same garb now

southern europe is the equivalent of the mid-west in the US - yes, there is a noticeable difference change, but you still know youre basically in west europe

east europe is where things get weird, like crossing the mason-dixon line

I know you're trying to see the US as a diverse country but to put it simply, it's just not. It's a new country without much history.

As a 2nd language, like every other country in the world. No sure what you're trying to say here.

spain is liberal, as is southern europe

ALL of west europe is liberal - theyre the "north" for the US

you think liberal think is OBVIOUS, but go to east europe, and all your western-euro liberal ideals arent perceived so obvious over there

thats the REAL change-over

its not simply languages that distinguishes west europe from east europe (which is huge), its POLITICS - which is a diversity america shares

diversity can take many colors - it can be politics, it can be racial, and it can be cultural - and in terms of politics and race, america is as diverse (infact america is MORE diverse, on the racial level - europe is only recently catching up)

AMERICANS live in their own world

why do you think america doesnt care that much about europe? and does pretty everything contrary to europe, and without regard to europe

because americans instinctively feel there is enough diversity and breadth HERE, that extending out to europe is largely pointless (america is the "new" world to europe)

a road trip across ALL 50 states in america is seen as a coming-of-age and MAJOR trip - its like a full europe trip to us

and no its not because americans are just "dumb", its that america feels genuinely satisfied in its diversity, and are fulfilled
