Normally I'd agree, but isn't "culture" basically by definition a common subset? Race and ethnicity are born into and I cannot do anything about it. Culture though is explicitly a descriptor of common traits one can generalize about.

Either way. I hail from a particular (different) country and I will make fairly confidently proclamations about cultural every-day ingrained corruption there. I have explicitly, consciously and purposely changed my culture as I vehemently disagreed with common negative traits of my previous and original culture.
