    No. The world shouldn’t be one homogeneous blob.

      As it surely would be if the US had Labor Day on May 1st.

        Its hyperbole, and a more of a death by a thousand paper cuts. I can go to every large western city (and many non-western ones) in the world and find McDonalds.

        I think thats atrocious.

          I was in Sweden for work some time ago, and we walked past a McDonald’s advertisement. It was for a Mexican Burger.

          My boss was Japanese, so we were on our way to a sushi restaurant.

            Like honestly, why even travel? (Yes I know history and museums and whatnot, but still.)
