There are so many primitive aspects in American society that it becomes hard to choose between them to say which one is actually the most primitive. Prime candidates are, however, the following:

1.) Fundamentalist Christianity with their intolerance of everyone who dares to have a lifestyle different to theirs.
2.) Political Conservatism, meaning that the status quo should be maintained at all costs, so the rich can get richer and the poor poorer, as is the time-honoured tradition.
3.) Hostile intolerance towards any minority to weak to defend itself, be they racial, sexual or what have you.

I could go on for hours, but it wasn't my intention to write a book here...

I would say the most primitive aspect of society is greed and class distinctions. Since almost no one has to build fires or hunt for survival any more and since farming, carpentry, and metalworking have become specialist trades and since pottery and weaving are done more as hobbies than as necessities greed and class distinctions are the only things left from our ancient ancestors.

Do you mean what is the least modernized aspect of American society? Still . . . compared to what?
