I know. It was a comment about the culture comparisons.

I’ve never heard of this being an issue and I’ve visited Greece several times and have Greek coworkers.

Exactly, compare the prison systems:

America’s is segregated by race. You can’t mix with the other race or borrow something from them, or even sit on their table.

In Britain the races mix, there’s no strict segregation, if there is any, it’s more segregated by town and county and areas.

You can illustrate this point by comparing prison systems.

In America is segregated by race, blacks, whites, Mexicans etc.

In the U.K all races mix, towns and counties may stick together more but that’s it.
