Some truth in that.
Thank you, more than some. There is nothing wrong with being proud of things worthy of praise in one’s heritage.
There is something wrong when you decide you are better than others, when you have done nothing yourself, based only on things that your vastly more accomplished ancestors accomplished.
The equally disgusting inverse of this are repugnant debates about whose ancestors suffered more coming from people who grew up in American plenty of the sort their ancestors could only consider beyond the wealth of kings.
