What the hell is a "provincial American"?

You don't know the meaning of the word provincial or do you mean you've never encountered it in this context?

Ah I see, as I expected, just trying to sound smart. Otherwise you would've just explained it

[–] jbone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 day ago

That was a genuine question, I thought you knew what I was saying and questioning the very existence of the concept.

Americans with a provincial outlook; a belief that local mores are the only legitimate way to look at things, lack of interest in different/new ideas.
