I'm not, really. You keep saying I'm carrying the alt-right script, and I'm now taking a position of inquiry even more fundamental than we started. So I would assume that your attempts to define me will be stronger, as well.
Quote:You and I both went to historicity and evolution at the same time, and yet we ended up using a very similar argument on opposite sides of the discussion. Therefore, it really is necessary to get right to the root of it all-- how does society as a whole decide what is right or wrong, especially with regard to the rights of its members?You understand that I'm an american, I assume? Justice and liberty for all? Equal protection under law? Nation of immigrants....that sort of thing? I mean..sure, I would hope that anyone I'm talking to could agree to some moral framework or foundation for why racism, discrimination, and oppression are wrong (if there is no agreement, then there can be no discussion on moral grounds) - but I don't need it.
It wasn't up to me to determine the contents of our national contract.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
