The Culture We’re Losing
By Desmond Scifo

From privilege to rights,
From liberty to libertinage
We’ve inherited freedom without form, rights without roots.

When everyone becomes your “brother” or “sister,”
the word family loses its meaning.
When you’re told to “love everyone,”
love itself becomes generic and weightless.

So we form clubs, tribes, and online communities—
Not because we’re more connected,
but because we’re starved for belonging.

In trying to include everyone,
we’ve forgotten how to belong somewhere.

Is this the cost of multiculturalism?
Maybe. But perhaps it runs deeper.

We’ve replaced culture with consumption,
tradition with personal preference,
identity with aesthetic choices.

We’re building a society of infinite freedom
with no shared story, no sacred thread to hold it together.

Culture without meaning is just lifestyle.
Liberty without values is just chaos.

It’s time to remember:
Culture is not entertainment.
It’s inheritance.
It’s identity.
It’s home.

The loss of culture by Desmond Scifo

From privileges to rights, from freedom to freedom-we have taken freedom, rootless rights.

When everyone becomes “brother” or “your sister”, the word family loses its meaning. When they tell you to love everyone, love becomes vague and weightless.

So we create clubs, groups, online communities-not because we are more connected, but because we are hungry for belonging.

While we try to welcome everyone, I forget how to belong somewhere.

Does this fruit multiculturalism? Maybe. But the problem may go deeper.

We have replaced culture with consumption, tradition with personal preference, identity with aesthetic options.

We are building a society with unlimited freedom without a common history, without sacred threads that hold everything together.

Culture without meaning is just a lifestyle. Freedom without values ​​is chaos.

It is time to remember: culture is not entertainment. It is a legacy. It is an identity. It’s a home.
