>is that the former actually adopted cultural ideas, beliefs, traditions, practices, whilst the former does not,
It's actually more severe than that: it's not that they have not adopted their culture, it's that they know nothing about it in the first place. They'll see a nice statue and say "beautiful.... this was built by my ancestors....." while understanding nothing about it. Their appreciation of Beethoven will be "wow!!! So intense!!! Ode to joy!!". Sure they will be too irony-riddled to use this language and punctuation, but I can assure you their judgement will boil down to this.
So here's my 2c: ignore every ignorant reactionary and traditionalist you'll ever meet, these people are the cannon fodder of any reactionary movement, the apes you send to the street so that the actual smart and capable traditionalists do not have to risk their life unnecessarily. Listen to those ones who have actually done their homeworks, if traditionalism will ever amount to anything these will be the guys that will actually have somethign to say: everyone else will instead waste their time LARPing as ancient men they know nothing about.
