Nah man, Americans have values. Freedom, perseverance, independence, self expression. It’s just that we have utterly failed to uphold those values in our actions. Even in the beginning, talking about slavery being terrible but still allowing it for political reasons right at the founding.
“American values” are just a smokescreen, they aren’t failed, more they serve their purpose of obfuscation well.

Those values only really served as a way for the ruling class that founded America to justify itself. They weren’t genuine.
