Idiot.
Now do the schmucks who are not proud of America, what it stands for and who founded it.

I agree that proud probably isn't the best word.
I sure as hell can admire those people though.

Y’all are the ones that give responsibility to them for it.

You sound like you're mistaking me for one of the Q-Tards that was running everywhere on this board.
But I'll indulge you anyway.
The period after WW2 that featured a dynamic economy with strong stability and amazing growth along with a stable culture that was not degenerate at all was and still is an amazing time in human history to be alive.
But no, the silent generation and enough baby boomers had to ruin that and write checks their descendants cannot afford and have the most liberal immigration policy in the world with the 1965 bill.

Yes. I'm both happy and sad at the same time. Happy that my oppressed ancestors boarded those rinky-dink wooden boats and crossed the Atlantic to escape tyranny from the Crown.
Sad that so many Americans are so willing to surrender their freedom to a bunch of communist radicals. Communist who would plunge them back into tyranny.

It paved the way for me being an American, which I am very proud to be.

I'm not. It's embarrassing.
I decided today to go everywhere in just a loin cloth and I only spoke native.
Needless to say, I need bail.

I'll also add that the Europeans were morally correct and righteously just to put down the barbaric tribes that once occupied this land,
I didn't know until recently that the family of Montezuma moved to Spain and given Spanish titles. Descendants of Emperor Montezuma II survive today. Kind of kills the narrative that it was the Europeans who were barbaric.

Moctezuma II’s son, Don Pedro de Moctezuma Tlacahuepan Ihualicahuaca also embraced Christianity and his son (M2’s grandson) Don Diego Luis de Moctezuma Ihuitl Temoc moved to Spain. Don Diego Luis’s son Don Pedro Tesifón de Moctezuma y de la Cueva was created Count of Moctezuma by Philip IV of Spain in 1627. In 1766, the holder of this title was named a Grandee of Spain.
In 1865 this line of descent was further honoured by being elevated to Duke of Moctezuma by Isabella II of Spain. The current head of this branch of the House of Moctezuma is Juan José Marcilla de Teruel-Moctezuma y Jiménez, 5th Duke of Moctezuma de Tultengo, 15th Marquis of Tenebrón and Viscount of Ilucán.

The only thing you bear any responsibility for is your current station and how you got there.

There are many on your ideological side who do not feel this way at all but good for you understanding this very fundamental truth that should be self evident to all.

One leftist transplant from Oregon pontificated to me about "the noble savage" that the Europeans despoiled.
Proceeded to tell him what they used to do to each other that on the pain threshold/scale rivalled, even exceeded, anything that was done during the Inquisition.
Particularly among the plains Indians, but especially among the Incas, Mayans and Aztecs.
It was just one culture with a propensity for cruelty finding another one, with one of them having the wherewithal to win.

Europeans kick arse at creating productive civilizations and then finding a way to destroy them from within.

It should be evident to all, unfortunately some are simply not aware of the way the world works and how fundamental society is to how someone gets to the position that are in.
