"Just true Americans. I should know. I was there. You cannot understand. You were NOT there."
If you don't understand why this sort of rhetoric is frightening, well...
Somehow you "know" what is a "true" American. That knowledge is based on an "interior feeling" from a "singular event" that is, according to your statement, only knowable by those with "direct participation" of it. You exclude from "true" all those who don't hold similar values or experienced what you did.
There is a historical parallel to this mindset, and I don't need to spell it out.
