You have made a good point but I don't think that's really the point the OP response tweet was making which was more of a lazy taunt and broad rejection of America as a whole. Not to say what Praeger U's vague dismissive appeal to patriotism is itself a good point, it is not. But the question here isn't just whether there is a case for social justice in some form, it's whether "American values" should be rejected wholesale for being tainted.

For instance, the equal protection clause of the constitution, which was used to dismantle various segregation laws, stands in the way of some race based remedies to past racist disenfranchisement. There is a value that the law should not discriminate. Whether or not that value is correct or could be questioned, I think it merits some reverence that isn't nullified by gesturing at the sins of the nation.
