Portland Culture

Progressively unproductive. Doing things that amount to nothing that make you wonder why you just did that. An example being the constant conversation about the homeless in Portland metro yet nothing being done.
Person #1: Hey! How was the protest?

Person #2: Oohh, you know. We protested, it was Portland culture.

Person #1: Wow, too bad you wasted all that time for nothing!

culture absorber

A person or group that literally absorb someone else’s culture as their own and act as if it’s theirs. They are not just a Weeaboo or a Koreaaboo. They do it with everything.. e.g. A European visits an Asian country and becomes fascinated with their culture. When back in their country they start acting like the people of that country they visited e.g. Korea, even speaking broken versions of the language in an attempt to be the same as them. They even throw in a random foreign word into the middle of a sentence. They will especially do this around their friends and family and try to get them to act the same as them..
Mike: Hey Tom how are you today.
Tom: Fine how about you Tom.
Mike: I’m daebak..
Tom: You’re wha—
Mike: Wanna grab some ramyeon!!
Tom: You don’t even like ram—
Mike I’ll take that as a yes....
*Proceeds to take out two wooden sticks and act as if they are chopsticks*
Tom: Ah so you’re a culture absorber...

Cancel Culture

The culture or active community of people who commit the action of "canceling" someone. To ruin someone's life by getting them de-platformed (banned) off of all social media and have them hated by the majority of humanity. You would do that by finding the tiniest imperfection in their history or a mistake they made. For example a tiny shoplifting crime they'd committed in there past or if they were in the wrong crowd 13 years ago.
Johnny: Oh look what I found according to this article. Michael Ronaldo stole a snickers bar 9 yeas ago.
Timmy: So what.
Johnny: Come on. We're going to go post this on social media and cancel him!
Timmy: Seriously, you're going to be one of those people involved in cancel culture?

"Unfortunately, even though you graduated magna cum laude from MIT and you've worked for Goldman Sachs for two years already even though you're only 18 - you being a black chick doesn't go with our culture fit of white nerdy guys from CalTech.

cultural levelling

When two distinct cultures become increasingly similar to one another.
Mom-and-pop stores that once existed in small towns have been driven out by chain stores like Wal-Marts all over the country, thus causing cultural levelling and a loss of uniqueness and diversity in the town itself and in the country.
