    To be fair, I assume you’re American and you guys call the main course the entrée. What else can one expect from uncultured barbarians that they don’t respect the most basic laws of human decency? I mean, what’s next? Wearing a hat inside? Disgusting.

        Globally the US doesn’t rank that high in language or ethnic diversity. Essentially all of Africa is more diverse both ethnically and linguistically. If you want to look at religious diversity, the US doesn’t rank that high either.

        Having lots of very small communities of immigrants in a society that primarily speaks 1 language and is majority one religion is not that diverse.
