White people have no culture as a collective group. Debate this.

Lol, I'm white tho. I just feel like or "know" as a group. If you had to take all white people and group em, we'd have no specified culture. Nothing we all share that's strong enough to call a culture. Where as other races do.

That's predominantly because white people spread across the globe have different cultures in different areas. For example, Danish people are different from Americans when it comes to cuisine due to the animals that lived in the region. Culture is not just race, but region too.

Culture is also influenced by events. For example, Native Americans were held in residential schools which had a huge negative impact and caused many to abuse drugs and alcohol, which still affects some to this day.

American Caucasian white or European Slavic white or Germanic white? It's like saying all black people share the same culture, even those from Zulu, the Congo, North/South African, African American. Addressing the lack of culture on America, it seems to be that a lot of American Ideals have been adopted by the wider world. Not entirely copy pasted, but people can get behind being free to choose what you want to do and how you want to do it. Doesn't make the United States stand out as a free culture. America is also really young compared to all those places with lots of culture, it takes time to develop and in an age where society and technology is constantly changing where trends don't really hold for more than several months. Cultural habits are formed amongst generations passing traditions and customs down without fail. With a society that doesn't really hold to ideals that long, and is always changing how they approach things, it's hard to leave lasting impressions.

Lmao because white people come from hundreds of different cultures so of course they don't have a collective culture. White Americans might have a particular culture, or maybe white Swedes but white people worldwide? Nah
