To that point, "muh heritage" faggots in general need to be shot, whether it's German or Mexican or whatever.

Tonnes of Irish fought for the allies during WWII, the country itself just took the stance of neutral, because we wanted to exercise our independence and not blindly fall in line with all of Britain's policies and decisions. Yes it was not the most mature way of handling things, but when you're getting rekt for hundreds of years you tend to make decisions on a more visceral level than intellectual.

This, it can be tough for Americans to practice foreign languages because so many of you speak English well, especially the Germans. If we don't insist on using German, we'll just end up speaking English all the time, defeating the purpose of going to Germany in the first place.

Heh. I've actually been to Australia, was a pretty good time. Never left the cities really, but enjoyed the visit. Aussies are bro-tier. It's maybe the only place in the world I could see myself living outside the US. I know, I know, you're full.
>>
>>68801854
*This is why you see things like a Mexican family flying a US flag in their front yard but supporting Mexico in the Gold Cup, or American soldiers holding up a Mexican flag to protest Trump. It's even common for families to be divided when the US plays against Mexico (one of my friends used to come over to my house to watch games because he supported the US but his dad supported Mexico).

Yea I'm sure. The little comforts we have here are a big deal, I traveled Europe by myself for two months, been all over the world. I doubt I'd ever leave the US, but if there is a culture and people out there that I could live among, it's clearly the Aussies.

I know why he did it, but it was still annoying to have conversations with him, because you literally had to concentrate really hard to get what he's saying.

It was like a gameshow, where you had to guess what he was trying to say based on the few fragments of his sentences you understood.

But yeah, it really got better towards the end, so I guess he achieved his goal.

Centuries of marginalization kept them apart from the rest of European society. They found niches in the economy (Christians couldn't lend money due to the church's ban on usury, so Jews did it). Then, because they've historically been marginalized (or possibly because they think they're better than everyone else), they look out for each other and gave each other jobs. Hence why certain industries are dominated by them (banking/finance, entertainment).
