> The US was founded on individual rights and freedoms, not community sacrifice.

You clearly didn’t grow up in an immigrant neighborhood in the city



I disagree with Walter here but the US wasn't founded by urban immigrants. There's a difference between pioneers, like the Mennonites in Mexico, and immigrants, like digital nomads in Mexico. The former are almost always more popular than the latter.


Even so, do you think the Mennonites or Mormons in Mexico would agree with no community sacrifice as as part of their narrative?


I grew up next to the Hispanic neighborhood in Arizona, and the schools I attended were about 30% Hispanic.
