TO SAY USA IS ONLY A NATION OF IDEAS IS DISINGENUOUS AT BEST. DANGEROUS AND SUICIDAL AT WORST. by @natrolleon My thoughts on USA as proposition nation: USA for most of it’s history has been one where oppressed peoples of Europe migrated to, put their differences aside and worked together. For most of humanity, this is a hard thing to do. For ages peoples of Europe fought each other. In America, they did not. There were issues, yes – the wars with the natives and slavery. Demographics up until 1965 were predominately white. America was up until recently a place were all Europeans could come and work together and have freedoms. We became the envy of the world. So there is a good case for the “ethnic American” who is mostly a mix of various European stock. America is more than just an idea, it’s also a people and a land and a process shaped by history. We the historic majority demographic played a pivotal role in making USA great. Yes in the past non-whites in this country have not been treated well. But that has come to an end, yet the guilt continues so we have to bastardize the notion of our identity and let everyone in. Now we can treat others better, but this is a whole different story than handing over the country to whatever demographic just happens to recently immigrate the most and pump out the most babies. There are unique pillars that hold a country up, it’s foundations if you will. The foundations for a nation, a civilization are: Land, borders, culture, ideas and demographics. With the demographics being one of the main underlying basis for the other parts. Demographics would be the base of the foundation. To say USA is only a nation of ideas is disingenuous at best. Dangerous and suicidal at worst.
