First He Attempted to Appropriate Civic Nationalism

Now he's trying to appropriate American exceptionalism.

Friends, America is alive in her saints! We have so many — mystics and missionaries, martyrs and immigrants, refugees and exiles. They came from everywhere to share their gifts and make this country what she was meant to be, a light to the nations!

America 2.0

The pledge is a product of union by coercion, and a creed for the American Empire. Catholics should have been working to resist its spread, instead of trying to improve it superficially. We see the same today with Archbishop Jose Gomez and others, and their attempt to recreate civic nationalism.

In 1893, when Americans recited the Pledge of Allegiance, they said “. . . one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” The wording stayed that way for more than 60 years – until the Knights of Columbus intervened.https://t.co/Rcv8hjErA9

Civnattery for the sake of sales. Wait until Budweiser goes woke.

Thanks Hart-Celler

The nuAmericans are pushing the nu-civic nationalism, inspired by the cultural Marxists.

For many of us who are non-white and/or of immigrant roots we see Confederate Flags/Statues as symbols of hate, fear, bigotry and racism. It doesn’t just hurt Black people, it hurts almost all of us non-white’s.

PS: It can be painful for white people as well.

RT if you agree.

Is Exodus Really Applicable?

Or are they just promoting "conservative" Judeo-Christian civic nationalism? Kass's book sticks to Exodus and the old Israel; it's Weigel who uses it to promote civic nationalism.

Leon Kass is an admirable guide to Exodus.https://t.co/wBZGZS15Z4

A Liberal at Work

The administration and faculty of Zaytuna College deserve high praise for offering Muslim young men and women a liberal arts education second to none--an education that draws on the best of the greatest traditions of religious and secular learning. https://t.co/tcKWflsjv7

Civic Nationalism Will Fix Everything!

That part of the culture war has already been lost. But the con contnues...

Taleb is Fundamentally Aligned with the Revolutionaries

Having accepted the lie of the proposition nation?

2) Now one MUST wonder: what abt those on the left who also called for violent insurrection agst elected govmnt?

Perhaps there is something about right wing-racial supremacist weirdoes that is especially dangerous, or morally repelling compared to rebellion by race victims.

Proposition Nation

No thanks. I haven seen one or two SJW posts from her on Chirper, and its because of immigrants like her that the American Dream is gone. Civic nationalism is dead, and movies like Minari won't bring it back, not when the cultural Marxism and SJWs have killed it.

#Minari is as American as it can be -immigrants making a new life in communities made by families that share the same 🇺🇸 dreams regardless what languages they spoke when arrived -German, French, Korean, Chinese, Polish, English, Japanese, Spanish, Italian, Russian etc =American. https://t.co/AeO9P3dvfe
