    There’s a culture of not sticking out of the pack, and the feeling that everyone is judging you if you do. It’s sadly more about that than deep understanding of the value of civism, according to my native friends.

        I think Western cultures often value differentiating yourself from the mass, it has its stupid downsides too of course.
