Overly fixating on being an "American" philosophy is, through the lens of , akin to fixating on a particular petri dish in a lab where certain effects were first observed.

What's interesting, what's scientific, is to see what happens when we try to generalize phenomena beyond the singular instance of their first observation, when we try to replicate the fruits of that dish in another.

Ultimately 'USA' is no less parochial a notion than 'petri dish 16B'!

@WorldImagining @philosophy Of course, if Petri Dish 16B is the one sample that contradicts the hypothesis, that's a different matter...

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name...

This isn't a horse, and that's just a bit of wood, and actually, he's got a name, Catoptria pinella, sometimes referred to as the Pearl Grass-veneer
