#1 The most lamentable thing about the author is that they probably didnt require any bribes or twisting to taper out that article.

#2 And the wider world should have a role in our lives for exactly what reason?

#5 The usual accusations. What the erudite journalist misses is that in much of Europe a twenty minute drive will take one into a new country — the reason so many more Europeans have passports — and about 20% of Americans speak a second language at home instead of reciting “ Je m’appelle Peter” in school, with another tranche (hey — lookit that: I used a furrin French word in everyday speech!) picking up the riper bits of vocabulary on the street. Ah well, AP has never prided itself on original thinking or deep insight.

#7 is poking fun at culture racist?

"or, in a few particularly racist cases, the "kung flu.""

question rhetorical, because of course it is, as long as it's a cudgel to beat western culture with.

#8 Ah, the old bit about passports. Hey, clown, literally millions of Americans never needed a passport in Europe as members of the armed forces protecting the place since 1945.

#9 "has always been to hold the rest of the world at arm’s length" except for waves and waves of immigrants. No we keep foreign governments at arms length but welcome the folks willing to gamble on moving here.
