In reply to the discussion: Marjorie Taylor Greene launching 'America First' caucus pushing for 'anglo-Saxon political tradition [View all]wnylib
(21,433 posts)58. Don't forget the wonderful Anglo-Saxon
customs like determining guilt or innocence through duels and dunking stools instead of courts. Or punishments like pillories and stocks. Torture for confessions.
What's so "unique" about Anglo Saxon culture in the US? It's not like we're the only country in history founded by Brits.
What is unique about us is our open embracement of multiple ethnicities, races, and cultures. All societies have had ethnic, racial, and cultural mixes to some extent. But the US is founded on such mixtures. We have failed to completely live up to that principle and still do, but the principle is there to believe in, fight for, and unite us.
Division is for arithmetic classes.

She's a turd that attracts white-nationalist flies. And she's high on her own stash.
