I think you are 100% wrong. Go to downtown Krakov or Kabul or frankly anywhere and each place is different as is its people and its culture. Different places have different culture and different sets of values. To claim everywhere is much the same , when everywhere is in fact different with 1000s of years of different history, culture and values is absurd. This is partly where the british empire went pear shaped. we thought everyone thought like us and that we could impose our values on others. well we couldn't and we cant. Everywhere is different and we should learn to respect those differences not patronise cultures and ignore other ways of thinking.
