If you've only read a couple of books written by brits and Americans, it's only natural for you to carry that opinion.
The cure? Read more.

They have a stronger literary culture whereas we have a stronger visual one (tv/film). Also, imagine having all 3 at the same time.

I prefer the braided hair of the lady on the left, also the flower on the head of the one in the middle could be covering a tumor or some other kind of deformation.

what does culture have to do with it?
how does it make sense that a lack of historical tradition is what holds an american writer back when he's trying to write good prose?

British literature from older times was great, but Americans BTFO modern British writers. I just read this the other day:

The daughter of a British Nobel laureate wrote her own book, which has been well recieved, and the best authors she cites are the ones she had to read in university, the Americans Donald Barthelme and George Saunders. Her biggest British influence is fucking Russel T. Davies. I thought American literature was in decline before, but at least we aren't that cucked.

Also though historically true, no longer so.

That really doesn't show much
I have no idea what American literary culture is supposed to be like today, very few friends of mine are Yea Forums. Generally since the 19th century Americans are more interesting novelists than Brits, I can't think of a British equivalent to Melville, West, or Delillo just to take a few examples.
Remember part of tradition is the amount of time a culture has existed in order to produce good writers.

Wasn't there a period in England during which you could escape capital punishment by proving you were literate?

Thats still the law today, hence the 99.9 imprisonment rate

Americans spend most of their time infront of the TV with mercury vaccines swimming in the radiated blood while their sons come from home fighting for a desert cult and just coming back from voting for Joe "Touch and Kiss my daughter up infront of everyone" Biden

They are a more reflective sort of people. It would seem that this would lend itself to writing.
