How does culture influence society?

Negative Aspects of Some Cultures

Culture nuances are far-reaching and can overshadow individual beliefs and ideologies. That's because culture sets up certain expectations for how members of the culture should act.Cultures that don't embrace diversity by accepting other cultures into their fold become ingrown. In some more extreme cases when the culture becomes too ingrown, its reach develops into a groupthink mentality. In this extreme form of culture, anyone who doesn't toe the cultural line is viewed in a negative way. In fact, the person will be ostracized and shamed into conforming to the culture's precepts.
