Read excerpt
The essay below was originally published on 11 September 2021 in Areo Magazine, where I worked for some years under Helen Pluckrose and Iona Italia, including as assistant editor.

But before setting down some reflections on the 250th birthday of the United States of America, I wanted to hear what the current president, simultaneously the most American American and the least American American of all time, had to say.1 Also in my defence, the Fourth could very well have been the Second, for it was actually on 2 July 1776 that the Continental Congress declared that ‘
