- rayiner 2y agoNo thanks, I’ll continue to use the correct terminology for referring to the foundational culture and tradition of the United States. Nobody appointed you king of the historical revision commission.
- defrost 2y agoScalia's "American Anglo common culture" that makes him feel right at home in England is just a subset of the many cultures within central north america that have coexisted under the US flag for many generations. It doesn't include the Chinese that brought rail to California, the multitudes of Latinos with ancestors under Viceroyalty of New Spain and elsewhere, the non Anglo Saxon Europeans that didn't ape the Anglo's after arriving at Ellis Island, etc.

- rayiner 2y agoCorrect. But those cultures are the cultures of specific groups and communities, while Anglo-American culture and tradition is the basis of the whole country.
- defrost 2y agoExcluding those groups that don't take on the whole cloth of "Anglo-American culture and tradition". "America" consists of a venn diagram that isn't covered in whole with WASP's .. hence the existence of non-Anglo Americans as multi generational components of the USofA.
