Than invidualistic? Kind of like Japan? I have always thought it would be better. Here in America you have so many different kinds of people you have to cater to to either worry about not offending or worse, causing a massive riot. You have all these idiots that believe their way is oh so more important than anyone else, think nothing of acting like a Karen and causing a major blow up in a store yelling and screaming etc just because your order is slightly off.

Get pulled over and start yelling and screaming just because you're too stupid to have your license, insurance, registration.

Not to mention FAR less issues for politicians to divide us over.

Were America as homogenous as Japan would

No, I don't believe either of those models is all that good. I believe you can have social individualism while still caring about your countrymen's well-being.

Trying to make a change is good. It's better than doing nothing.

Collectivism is always sold as a more equitable way to organize. In practice it is always a way to enslave. For example communism is often sold as "Everyone can have everything all the time". This sounds attractive. However, in Cuba getting 2 hours of electricity is a special treat.
