People seem to be trying to argue Europe and the US are very similar culture wise but I don’t think that’s true at all.

IMO the biggest problem with the US over Europe is lack of social cohesion, lack of familial cohesion that includes extended families, focus on individualism over community, and lack of social safety nets. These factors have a huge impact on mental well being.

The idea that Europe and the US are very similar other than access to guns just because both are developed western nations is very naive…
