The House We Live In -- Digby
https://digbysblog.net/2025/12/26/the-house-we-live-in/
Miller’s getting a massive amount of push back on social media for this one, pointing out his own relatively recent Jewish immigrant forebears from Russia. It’s not like they came over on the Mayflower…
This Heritage American stuff is actually amusing to me. It’s DEI for people who like to style themselves as the descendants of northern Europeans, which they think makes them more entitled to be Americans. That’s just stupid on its face. Hilariously, they’re using all the woke tropes, only for themselves. Needless to say, most of them are clueless about their own ancestry and have no idea why they fled their countries to come here or understand anything about anyone else.
We are awash in idiocy and it starts at the very top.
