You sound like Oliver Stone. Kennedy was pretty mediocre. Not terrible but certainly not as great as the myths build him up to be.
>>72075826
I did think that the movie portrayed him calling himself a Native American in an ironic manner
>>72075406
Yes. Blue-blooded WASP in New York reporting in. Send help, we've been overrun.
>>72075603
Then he is the strangest looking Native American I have ever seen.
>>72076162
Native Americans aren't native, they came from Siberia
>>72076137
Most """Natives""" don't do ironically
everyone is an immigrant because we all made of stars. some immigrants are just shittier than others.
>>72075406
No America would crumble without the workforce of immigrants.
>>72075406
FOREIGN HORDES
>>72076174
Alright then, either way he is an immigrant or the result of his parents being immigrants.
>>72076197
You have to go back

No, until the PC culture, Anglos or whites from the US were refereed to as "natives." As apposed to Irish and later German and Italian immigrants.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Know_Nothing
America is one of the few countries were someone can have origins from 4 generations ago and not be called a "native." Probably as part of the culture to push for more immigration.
Most American Indians, call themselves Indian, because they aren't black and don't need to change their terminology after other decade. "Native American" is a PC word made up by whites. Personally I prefer the term Amerindian, but it isn't really used outside of anthropology.
>>72076392
Yes I know it's historically accurate, but clearly in the movie he is supposed to be le racist bad guy. So the fact that the they were known as Native Americans seems like it is intended to be seen as ironic
>>72076667
Maybe, I didn't really take it that way. It was historically accurate. I'm not really sure what other term he could have used to describe native born Americans who were against Irish immigrants.

I'm looking at Lothrop Stoddard right now, and he says this:
>This figure includes Scotch and Scotch-Irish strains (which are of course identical with English in the Anglo-Saxon sense)
>>72076233
Great argument
>>72076850
Scots and Scots-Irish (Scottish immigrants to Northern Ireland) aren't Irish. Although the Scotti did actually come from Ireland.
I think people usually thought of the Scottish as being Picts, native to Great Britain.
>>72075406
In terms of fear, yes.
His racist views... I wouldn't be too sure. That's just me though.
>>72076392
The rejection of the notion of a native is deeply linked to the fundamental idea that the US is not defined by a particular tribe or nation or race, but rather by a concept and set of ideals.
The idea was to reject that old world definition of a state and to unite peoples of all creeds under the banner of democracy. Of course old habits die hard, and you had retards like the know nothings who couldn't grasp the irony of calling the Irish dirty immigrant scum when their grandfathers likely washed up on America's shores as religious exiles or permanent fuck ups or just your standard penniless piece of shit.
Its not like any of those people were the progeny of fucking John Winthrop
>>72076809
yes, but making him the villain of the story is supposed to make affect how the viewer looks at it
>>72075780
Speak for yourself, burger
