Culture can become generic.
When cultural traits diffuse widely they’re adopted, adapted, and mass-produced beyond their original communities, which erodes distinct local characteristics and leads to homogenization (loss of uniqueness). Examples: global fast-food chains, mainstream pop music styles, or standardized fashion replacing local variants.
