Which Americans are you talking to? We know there are other countries and cultures. We just aren't responsible for learning deeply about all of them. No one is.
You're using some strong, broad strokes that aren't reflective of my experience at all.
You should learn about experiences outside your own that you are not is not a good thing.
I am learning those things... hell, I'm studying a completely different language and learning the history.
I think I'm not who you think I am.
The above is one example.
You don't have a high ground, here.
