That is indeed a shower thought.
"Party in the USA" and "Pink Pony Club" are opposite views on America: "Yay, the US is really all the same!" vs. "Yay, there are real cultural differences within the US!"

While Weird Al’s “Party in the CIA” tells you how it is.

There are definitely cultural differences, but for its size, the US is really homogeneous. As an example, Tom Scott’s video on “jingle bells, batman smells” shows way more regional variation in the UK compared to the US, despite being smaller than some states.

Equally as shallow, just different in their flavour of shallowness? 🤔

We are more the same than we are different, and there's a lot of value in where we do differ.

They both can be true. We may have vast cultural differences, but we all want to live in an affordable, safe place and be paid what we’re worth while having the security of proper healthcare.

Unfortunately, at no point in either of our lives has your comment described The United States of America.

It does describe your average citizen, not politicians or capitalists.
