  • how polarized people are
  • how stupid people are
  • that a single culture is not possible, it has already been tried 2x and failed

What do you mean with a single culture?

like ussr. even thought there's no reason to have more than 1 language. language is just a channel for communication, people don't get that. they want to be unique and that causes problems

Ah. I think theres a lot of people who dont mind doing a single culture. As long as the single culture is THEIR culture only.

But I dont think a single culture is possible with humans. We are trained to spot differences in other humans, and sort people into "us" and "them".
