England's (soon to become Britain's) #GloriousRevolution was glorious indeed - for the elites. For ordinary Englishmen & Britons, not so much, which is why the American colonies broke away, sick of being exploited by Parliament & Britain's elites (never mind the King).
Amerca's founding fathers hoped to create a genuine nation of free White people (yes, White, because they knew that multi-racial nationhood would never work), instead of the mercenary #PatronState (deceitfully posing as a nation) that Britain was.
The founders knew it would be difficult enough creating a genuine nation from different European peoples of the same race.
And so it has proven. America became just a bigger, more powerful, version of the Orwellian construct that is now the UK.
