As an American are you sick and tired of being told that you have to accept every other culture but your own?

[RingOfFire]

I know I am!

YES! I LOVE American culture. I am extremely proud of it and NO ONE is going to take it away from me!

NO! I HATE American culture. How DARE YOU want to protect it! I want to see it banished from the planet! I HATE HATE HATE (because that's all I know how to do!)!

Once upon a time a whistleblower exposed the fact that the Seattle airport was providing foot baths for Muslims. The Port authority would have never provided something like that for Christians, because they knew there would be backlash from the Muslim minorities and the woke.

An example of a passive aggressive ideology (although sometimes far short of passive).

[shish_kebab]

True

1000%. I've yet to see a strong argument for us importing the 3rd world enhancing the country at all.

[Emily_griffin]

I get why some people feel that way. I think respect should go both ways—you can appreciate other cultures without feeling like you have to reject or be ashamed of your own.

[RingOfFire]

Precisely. Yet, there is a growing element of our political establishment and our media that pushes just the opposite view trying to shame us (or worse) for following what many of us still feel is the greatest culture in human history and that having that view is somehow forbidden. If we allow them to suppress our culture, that will be the end of it.

A country is defined by three things: Borders, language and culture. That is the glue that keeps it together. There is a growing movement to remove that glue and tear America apart. It must not be allowed to proceed. And some cultures in particular are not compatible with ours. That is a reality we must accept or face the consequences. As Americans we are so accepting and tolerant by nature it is hard for us to understand that there are cultures that wish us harm and that they are not all the same. And when you are tolerant of the INtolerant, you are committing suicide. When your tolerance is taken advantage of, it is a threat to your survival.

Emily, wouldn't you agree that most Americans celebrate Christmas in some way?

Do you remember when retail stores were forbidden to say, "Merry Christmas" to the customers, because it was offensive to the minority?

@shish_kebab

That was indeed a gesture from one of the early salvos in the most recent movement to separate America from its Judeo-Christian heritage. Anything American was to be cancelled. This is how virtually every dictatorship in the modern age begins. Erase history and fill young ignorant heads with mush so that they cannot learn anything from it. The Hitler Youth (Hitlerjugend) readily comes to mind but it was not only them. Communist regimes always use the same tactic.

I would just like to see some white people in my city!

Yes, I am sick and tired of it!

[Pterodon]

Yes it does and I’m sick of liberal politicians going around to other countries and agreeing that America is wrong and we’re so sorry here’s millions of dollars is there anything else we can give you so you won’t be mad at us and call us names. I’m also sick of my country’s culture being attacked like when Clinton wanted to call it a holiday tree instead of Christmas tree so it wouldn’t offend non Christian’s

[RingOfFire]

Absolutely. Trump is exactly right. America doesn't owe the world an apology, THEY OWE US ONE. No country or culture in the history of the human race has saved more lives, liberated more people from tyranny, provided more charitable support, lifted more people out of starvation and poverty, defended more peoples' freedom, created more prosperity for more people, healed and made life better for more people through medical and technological inventions and breakthroughs than the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. And all that at the cost of an immeasurably gigantic cost to our own people in lives and treasure. We are by far the most generous nation in history. Yet so many of these leech countries dare show disrespect and a lack of cooperation while actually calling US the evil nation? They can all go to hell as far as I'm concerned. Show us the respect we deserve or find out the hard way what it will mean to you after we abandon you.

The only reason so many Americans don't get this is because they are brainwashed weak minded puppets programmed by the leftist Democrats and their evil anti-American agenda.

I guess this just isn't a problem for me in most cases.

[DonaldDarko]

Past sick of it at this point. Pissed off.

[exitseven]

America is for Americans.

[SaoirseS]

[Cidknee]
