He claims traditionally a country is held together by “shared gods, shared blood, and shared enemies”.
What is he saying, the issue is, this is a multi-faith, multi-ethnic country? I say, Professor Haidt, the train has left this station, America has progressed, it is not going back to “shared blood” and “shared gods” anymore. You better get used to some diversity.

Now a part of Americans thinks they were horrible racist people. It’s not something that bonds anymore. It’s the opposite now.
