America is too large and fractured culturally to be able to redefine American in a way that can encompass the continent.
While I agree that people need that foundation in national identity, I don’t think the American identity is even possible at this point, if it ever really was.
Even at the beginning, Americans defined themselves first by their state of origin, back when each state had a distinct cultural and local aesthetic. But after the Hamiltonian takeover throughout the centuries, we’ve seen that dissolve and be replaced by the Boomercorpo-defined hellscape of endless parking lots and shopping malls.
In the wake of that, the only dividing line remaining was the agreement on how fast we should spiral further down this particular rabbithole.
If you want another era of Bush-tier ‘Murican Identity with no real values to guide its people, then by all means go for Patriot Front.
But if you want strong people with distinction in body, mind, and spirit, it’s best to let the concept of America die.
