OK, now explain why you can't find a decent ISP in a major American city. (That's right, it's because of monopolies and enshittification.)

"In the US, 100 years is a long time. In the EU, 100 miles is a long distance." Old joke, but it really does highlight the largest fundamental cultural difference. Things like trying to explain how grudges that were formed in the 19th century and are indeed still the driving force behind political trends, or how accusing me of political indifference because I'm not in DC protesting is like accusing someone in portugal of not caring about world politics because they didn't drive to eastern Ukraine for a protest...
