"A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is 'merely relative,' is asking you not to believe him. So don't." -Roger Scruton

Mr Scruton is a visionary who's brilliant talk here, is more relevant today in England and USA than he would have ever possibly imagined.

They English way of life he refers too is disappearing... Mass migration has turned many of the major cities into something very much not English.

George Orwell has a documentary called “a life in pictures” …he helped me understand that being from England means something culturally and I can articulate myself better to other Americans from Europe who cliticize my conduct at work (humble not weak), in neighborhoods (not waving out of respect/rude to them)..i live in the northeastern region. I’m English so I’d rather not say.

My ancestors came here with the Virginia company a very long time ago. Imagine the confusion of not knowing about culture and dna. I was so excited to learn that I’m a “wasp”. My family and friends are not as excited to talk about being a wasp.

We have a very “kitsch “ lawyer here who has a lot of power in family/probate courts….he was born in England and obviously not a hereditary lord. He is also a local politician/candadate. My advice to England is to keep the House of Lords and come over here. We need to preserve our options.

He spoke twenty years ago perhaps, and was considered a sage and might as well not have spoken, for all that he was not heard by authority:nor are the rest of us, or ever shall be and thus we know that there is no salvation in mankind, either in the prophet or the king.
