Culture does not determine personality. People are people -- and people are first and foremost individuals. Individualism is not simply a philosophy of how people should be, but also a description of what they are. The polite word for the treatment of culture as all-determining is "multiculturalism." The honest and more descriptive term is: tribalism.
