Can someone explain what's wrong with MUH HERITAGE?
thinking you are a special snowflake apart from other citizens of your country for having a different ancestry
Just my opinion on this:
If you are going to 'embrace your heritage', I highly suggest learning the language of whatever that country is, and spending as much time there as possible. To embrace a country's culture without knowing their language or actual culture is not a wise decision.

Nothing, Europeans are just looking for things to laugh at you to feel better about themselves.
It's an idealization of what you are not because you refuse to accept your true self
Literally nothing
>>60970626
Because it's special snowflake syndrome
You're an American, nothing more
Well apparently, nothing.
But it's just, you know...
A bit, Gay.
Americans and people from colony countries in general are mutts of multiple ethnicities and races. It's pointless to identify with one group more than the other unless your ancestry is 100% from that group.

what's the point? Most whites are european mutts anyways so unless your grandma immigrated here recently you've got no real connection to the area
that being said I'm literally an english noble so pls gib land, pic related-it's my ancestor
But what if I was born there
It's just banter. Nothing wrong or strange about being interested in your past beyond where you parents came from. Human nature and all.

Nothing, unless you keep bringing it up constantly.

Literally nothing, good on you for remembering your european roots.
if scots and irish have the same heritage (celtic), why the irish were always treated like shit in america while scots weren't?

This t.bh
The Scots weren't thought of as a Papist invasion like the Irish were either
>>60971116
Scotts Irish were Protestants, it wasn't about Irish being Celtic at all, it was about religion. There was also mass immigration of Irish into major cities after we had become a country, while Scotts Irish came way before that and settled in the south.
It's similar to Americans having no problems with German Protestant immigrants but with Catholic Germans, it wasnt about ethnicity but culture and religion

Ireland lives in me too but I have 0 Irish blood in me

i hate "nationality weeabos".
>>60970626
Because apparently being born here means we are so steeped in images and signs that claiming heritage in another culture is like claiming loyalty to a brand.
>>60970626
It's wrong when you're 50% Norwegian, don't speak a single word of Norwegian, never been to Norway and yet you claim to be Norwegian, for instance
Because 90% of ''heritage'' is culture not genes

I'm Native American but I have a half chinese/half german parent and was born in Germany
I belong to my tribe and have US citizenship, along with a German passport, and speak English, German, and Cantonese.
I'm the weirdest fucking mix.
