Part of a much needed, ongoing, metapolitical (cultural) conversation about who we are and who we want to be.
The Left's version ("This is America", Childish Gambino) vs...an as yet ill-definded Rightwing version. This vague definition of ours, I think, is mostly by design. It's why the Left keeps a stranglehold on art, mass media access and monetization and every higher education department related to 'liberal arts'! If your opponent isn't allowed advertise or name itself then you've won half the battle as they have no handle bywhich prospective members can learn about core beliefs, important thinkers and 'influence makers', etc.
(Remember when 'Alt-Right' meant anyone rightwing and not GOP, bit not necessarily racist? (Hey, Trump never posed with the white version of Farrakhan so don't get too excited there, shills!) Now, they've named those non-racist people 'Alt-Lite' ...like a nonalcoholic beer. On purpose. etc
>The culture of the United States of America is primarily of Western origin, but is influenced by a multicultural ethos (me: its a blend of BOTH, imo. See bottom of post) that includes African, Native American, Asian, Pacific Island, and Latin American people and their cultures. It also has its own distinct social and cultural characteristics, such as dialect, music, arts, social habits, cuisine, and folklore. The United States is ethnically and racially diverse as a result of large-scale migration throughout its history.[1] Because of its size and influence, many American cultural elements, especially from popular culture, have spread across the globe through modern mass media.
I sincerely believe that Wikipedia editors intentionally keep these pages, like their one on metapolitics, confusing and bring to drive readers away. If anyone has better links...
>The Shortest History of Europe begins with a rapid overview of European civilisation, describing its birth from an unlikely mixture of classical learning (Greco-Roman philosophy and politics), Christianity and German warrior culture.
Hey dere. Every civilization is a blend but I think the US really incorporated this into our modern worldview. This was the last non-Enlightenment, non-Industrialized, pre-Capitalism landmass that expansive, inquisitive Westerners colonized. As such, we knew 'this is it' as far as Earth went and it was and remains humanity's last, best hope for ...progressing past the faulty dogmas and hierarchies of the past. The untenable, painful hereditary class distinctions of Old Europe and 'civilizations' that lacked both philosophy (Africa) & science (the human sacrificing Americas).
I dunno. On muh tablet so that's about as good as its gonna get from me right now ioi
