What exactly is American culture? Please avoid retarded memes meant to troll. I think if somebody asked me this question on the street, i would be hard pressed to explain to them what American culture is.
Give semi-detailed responses and avoid posting the obvious negative stereotypes of America.

>Please avoid retarded memes meant to troll.
I see you didn't even make it past the first 5 words.
literally the pursuit of happiness, emphasis of the individual's right to life, liberty and said pursuit of happiness, and no holes barred freedom of expression (sans violation of other's individual rights, such as safety).
>i.e. I can call you a nigger, or you can call me whatever pansyfag non-insult and I would happily live and die if I must to preserve our right to fling shit at each other.

Stereotypes exist because they're basically true.
>What is black culture?
Crime, poverty, and rapping about crime and poverty..
>What is mexican culture?
Drugs and overbreeding.
>What is european culture?
What is syrian culture?
And i specifically asked to avoid negative stereotypes. Not because they offend me but because i want to know the positive parts of American culture. Get it? I don't need someone to explain to me stereotypes of America.
Rugged individualism, the frontiersman spirit
Being rich enough to afford to support our pathological consumerism and obesity.
Ok you can stop projecting now, i get it. You're fat and materialistic.
Culture is language, cuisine, vernacular, sayings, sports, religion, humor, customs, holidays, music, literature, film, political ideals, etc. and so on and so on. People who say America has no culture are morons. We are pretty unique, and play sports only popular here, and generated unique forms of music the whole world dickrides, have our own cuisine (nobody said it was the best), sense of humor, cinema, poetry, literature (twain, Faulkner, Melville, etc.)
>What exactly is American culture?
American culture is literally defined by the
war for independence against the British monarchy.
Everything else is secondary.
>The division between north and south,
>western frontier cowboy culture,
>Native American wars,
>Pioneering oil development
>the right to bear arms
>the auto industry
I've been wondering this myself honestly. I think you basically asked for faggots to go

As a foreigner studying in USA I never bought into america has no culture meme I think thats stupid
But you should also distinguish what is american culture and what is western culture in general. By american culture you should point out spesific things that exists in USA but not in anywhere else, spesifically west.
So democracy, rule of law, freedom of speech, consumerism are not parts of distinct american culture even though usa might be ahead in some aspects or behind in some
Anyways to give an exampel of American Culture I would say Biker Gangs. Throughly american and its one thing usa exported into europe. Bikers are an american phenomenon that expanded into europe.
Blue jeans. Gun culture. Don't think I saw anyone say those two.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of memes
Rock and roll, Amazon, Google, Apple and Microsoft, Hollywood, Disney, baseball, BBQ, Breaking Bad, Steven King, the Statue of Liberty, football, Coca Cola, US Military, The French Laundry, kale and quinoa salad, the Wild West, Mark Twain, every TV show or movie set in New York City, Hyperloop One, the Founding Fathers, SUVs, and Sup Forums.
You're having trouble answering because of three things. Being the leader in a largely globalist world means a lot of your culture becomes world culture , multiculturalism without total assimilation destroys identity, and America has always first and foremost been about the idea of self-determination
