You would literally be put to death for saying "God Damnit" in a Puritan town. I think you need to re-read your history.
Their only reason for going to America was because nowhere in Europe was "Christian enough" so they wanted to establish their own doctrine of Christianity as they saw it. They were as religiously fanatic as you could get at that time.
“You are attacking a people who tamed the wilderness of the New World. Who often, would hold sermons under the sun and be armed to the teeth. A people who so dominated the New World, their leftists descendants must disavow their very existence.”
As for being a Spartan in a society built on the strongest of the strong, yeah I'd like to follow that society. They stretched excellence to the limit. They conquered and were instrumental in Western Civilization as it is today. Those 300 Spartans that sacrificed themselves are still talked about today while you will be forgotten next week if you died tomorrow. You are unimportant and contribute nothing in the grand scheme because you are just not that excellent, committed, and fanatic.
It must suck to live in your world, everything must be diluted and tasteless like you. You wouldn't be able to live with the fact that you are so low in the history of your ancestors. They were much smarter and better than you are.
All you have established is that groups that are sufficiently fanatic (sharing a common psychosis) can perform exertions---and go totally over the line. They prospered only because their earlier generations performed the struggle upon which they were able to build. They never moved much out of New England.
Good for the 300 Spartans. Sparta's only claim to fame. No art or music or literature left behind for posterity. Right along with the Nazi SS and the Japanese Army. You have a remarkable short-sightedness of human culture.
No, actually I think it must suck to live in your world---which is this world---because you find in it nothing that rings your bell. And you build yourself a great personal mythos to rise above it all. I wonder how old you are...

Here's a sculpture made by Spartans in the 5th century BC dumbshit.

Now slave away, suffer, and die leaving behind nothing worth remembering.
Others will live beyond themselves but not you. You will never move humanity forward. Just decay.
