Americans know about the muh heritage meme, but they just can't help themselves. If you're born in America you aren't German. You aren't Irish. You aren't Italian. Oh and give up on the 1/64th Cherokee shit, it's embarrassing.

State lines in America mean something. There's a drastic cultural difference between New York and New Jersey that doesn't exist between San Diego and San Francisco

Most Americans aren't more than a couple generation removed from immigrants. They brought their heritage with them and maintained it. PA is German as fuck. Minnesota is Swedish as fuck. New York is Italian/Jewish/Puerto Rican as fuck. Florida is Cuban as fuck. Why is that so hard to understand?

Of course you are. "American" isnt an ethnicity, its people that hold citizenship in the US.

If I have a child in the US with my Swedish girlfriend that child will be Swedish by ethnicity, and only american by citizenship.

Yeah and the Jersey Shore guys are real live Italians right? I'm talking about culture.

I have Scottish grandparents, does that make me a Scot? No, I didn't grow up in Scotland, and I have no real cultural connection to the land. If I were American I'd be running around in a kilt talking shit about brave William Wallace and how the English are bastards.
>>
>Virginia has no teams

The fuck man, we should have at least, we gotta be the biggest state with no team. I guess DC counts as our team in every instance.
>>
>>68014957
I didn't say that they were real live Italians, I said they brought and maintained their heritage. If you go to any major city in the northeast, Philly, NY, Boston, Baltimore, they have an Italian section, a German section, a Jewish section, an Irish section, a Hispanic section, a black section, with all the cultural color and flavor that goes with it, it's just the way it is. Even Scottish people in Scotland don't wear fucking kilts.
>>
>>68014957
Look, Aus, I know you don't like to think about your ancestors' criminal past, but some people in America are proud of where they and their family came from. Many of them brought their culture with them.
Around here, we don't have a serial problem of criminal scum in our family trees.

That's my point, you might think you're ''preserving the culture'', but that ''culture'' would be completely alien to people from that country. If you think being Irish is about drinking green Guinness and having a shamrock tattoo then you might want to go to actual Ireland. Ask mexicans if they think chicanos represent authentic mexican culture.

That's called globalization my friend. Japanese women don't go to the supermarket in Kimonos anymore. They wear western style dress. The only places that still wear traditional garb are third world shitholes like the Middle East, Mongolia and Africa. Do you think that heritage only comes down to the way people dress? It's religion, food, morals, language, family dynamics, music, sports, etc. I live on the East Coast where all this shit comes together. It's part of my everyday life. I go in to peoples homes everyday. They have bits and pieces of their ethnicity all over their houses. The embrace it. It's part of them. Just like the way you worship kangaroos and Mel Gibson and AC/DC. Jesus fucking Christ you're thick.
