The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg

NOTE

Embrace Identity, Resist Comparison

Rejecting the notion of wanting to emulate other nations, the emphasis lies on the value of American identity over idealizing other countries' successes. This reflection promotes the idea that admiration for foreign systems can stem from a misplaced sense of elitism, where individuals envision themselves in positions of power rather than recognizing the complexities of governance and societal structures.
