Just more confirmation that Leftists fundamantally misuderstand the American spirit, and in general what it means to be an American.

MSNBC contributor Anand Giridharadas said on Wednesday because Americans are so obsessed with the idea of freedom, it leaves the country vulnerable to outside threats like climate change and pandemics. He added government is not the biggest threat to our liberties.
Giridharadas said the ongoing Wuhan coronavirus pandemic and the government's response will lead to Americans wanting to reevaluate its relationship with the state and federal government.
"There is a primordial American tradition going back to the Founders of being freedom obsessed, even though we are a country founded on slavery and genocide, being freedom obsessed to the point that we’re always so afraid of the government coming for us that we’re blind to other types of threats, whether it’s a virus, whether it’s bank malfeasance, climate change, what have you," Giridharadas said on "Morning Joe."

frick these fricking leftist shitstains.
Why in the hell are they so stuck on what happened 300 years ago (slavery), while completely ignoring what happened later (ENDED slavery, passed civil rights act in 1968).
It's like arguing with the wife. It doesn't matter what you're doing now. What matters is what you did that one time 25 years ago.

Imagine thinking this is a bad thing. Just imagine.

anti-Americans' obsession with things such as "climate change" blinds them to threats to freedom.
That's an actual real concept, unlike that dipshit's

Yup. That’s what has stopped America from being successful. Too much freedom.

America has magic soil. It's OK if we import millions of people of non-Western backgrounds. They will soak up the magic from the soil here and will come to espouse the same values upon which America was built.
