Can they be historically American, but ideologically unfit for what we want America to be and the values many of us hold, and therefore align with the values of change for the better?
I understand the urge, but at what point are we having to pull out so many wires that it's no longer the same thing? I think America exists beyond that point. Anything worthwhile we build out of this rotten mess will need to be so different that it won't make much sense to call it by the same name.
