just to turn the tables: isn't that precisely what goes on here if anyone says anything in defense of US culture? isn't it the case that you have to suck the cock and both balls of your fellow lefties and prove you're a real lefty first, and even then, no matter what you've typed or said or written in the past, the act of saying it voids everything you've otherwise said?

why promulgate a process built on the same dynamics as patriotism?

you can only belong if you talk the loyalty oath and that's to never, ever say anything but critical things about the US?
