I don’t need you to tell me how to think, especially since you don’t seem to understand my posts. Where, for example, did you see any “tribal identity” in my posts or that I “embraced the left”?

I simply look forward rather than backward. I am, after all, both American and Catholic, and Catholic America will do just fine.

You sound like a foreigner that would be happy for the original America to disappear, and for it to turn into a European like Catholic nation.

I have seen that from some tribal like Catholics, they see 1776 America as a Protestant curse of freedom and individuality, that needs to be fixed by being conquered and Europeanized, by Catholicism.

This has been the general agenda that immigration has brought to America since Catholic immigration started in the 1840s. Liberalism, unionism, and the usual problems of Europe. Today the hope for the left is that Catholic immigration will make the United States, a totally owned property of the Democrat party.

Here is the effect it has had on California.

Look at how Catholic immigration affects the vote in California, and this was in an election where life issues dominated.
