The only butthurt here is you, my melanin enriched friend.

USA has an opppsite approach to Europe. Rebel against the old world, full pragmatism, materialism opposed to tradition, glorification of the negro, etc.

All important european authors already noted the opposition between USA and Europe as early XVIII century onwards. Gobineau, Jung, Guenon, Evola, etc.

Both Jung and Evola considered USA to have a negrood spirit, dangerous to Europe.

Now take all those values and force them on the dominated post war Europe, and even easily with the EU.

USA is not Europe. That's why the pathetic behaviour of reminding everyone you're 1/360 german.

I don't remind anybody about anything and muh heritage isn't a common phenomena here really. It's mostly the retarded and insecure upper class kids who post here.

Read Evola's american negrizzata and civiltà americana (both availble in english), Gobineau opinion on americans (his wikipedia article includes the quote and source. It was censored in the american version) and the Jung one give me a sec , Im on phone. Jung remarked that USA is not a white country.

From 'Your Negroid and Indian Behavior', Carl Jung, 1930.

>"I know the mother-nations of North America pretty well, but I would be completely at a loss to explain, if I relied solely on the theory of heredity, how the Americans descended from them acquired their striking peculiarities. One might suppose that some of them were the product of the old pioneer and colonist attitude. [...] There is a much better hypothesis to explain the peculiarities of the American temperament. It is the fact that the States are pervaded by the Negro... . Some States are particularly black, a fact that may astonish the naive European, who thinks of America as a white nation."

>The emotional way an American expresses himself, especially the way he laughs, can best be studied in the illustrated supplements of the American papers; the inimitable Teddy Roosevelt laugh is found in its primordial form in the American Negro. The peculiar walk with loose joints, or the swinging of the hips so frequently observed in Americans, also comes from the Negro. (Note 3) American music draws its main inspiration from the Negro, and so does the dance. The expression of religious feeling, the revival meetings, the Holy Rollers and other abnormalities are strongly influenced by the Negro. The vivacity of the average American, which shows itself not only at baseball games but quite particularly in his extraordinary love of talking – the ceaseless gabble of American papers is an eloquent example of this – is scarcely to be derived from his Germanic forefathers, but is far more like the chattering of a Negro village. The almost total lack of privacy and the all-devouring mass sociability remind one of primitive life in open huts, where there is complete identity with all members of the tribe.”

It is a fact USA was never a white nation. The land belonged to the natives and there was never a full extermination of locals. White means nothing also. You can be white and still be a nigger in behaviour, which seems to be your case. European = racially, culturally and born on Europe.

USA in spirit and cosmovision is different from Europe.

We may be European racialy but neither you or me are European. We may adapt easily, but we aren't less foreign to Europe than a moroccan born and raised there.

Nice rebuttal. Again showing your insecurities.

I know we aren't European. But It's European ancestry that brings the USA to it's allies in Western Europe.

Yes, yes, I know - Russia is asiatic, barbarian country. Russians aren't white. Russians aren't Slavs. Russians aren't Europeans. We hear this for at least ~800 years.

No, it's militarism and american manipulation of West Europe after the war. If you want to read it from the perspective of an american, read Yockey. He considered that West Europe should ally with USSR instead of USA as he viewed american culture as greater treat to european traditional values than communism.

>I know for a fact that I'm not dead European, but American Culture is most certainly a subculture of European Culture.
You nailed it. We are subcultures. Some more, some less close. Coming back to thread topic, the imposition of materialism and other american values altered the paradigm in Europe.

The obssesion of american white supremacits with race is just another form of materialis and denial of the fact they are different in spirit and culture to Europe. 'I'm racially white, therefore I'm the same as an european'. Wrong.

We stopped believing in ourselves and our right to exist/survive. It began with the destruction of our moral foundation (Christianity), and is ending with the destruction of our civic foundation (family).

This. But if someone have made something great, everybody knows his work and this work will be translated in many languages.

Mixing with natives was pretty common with the first families. Claiming descent of Powhatan via Matoaka was also considered a status thing.

American education everybody. Natives were fully genocided except from the extreme north where their culture remained among them. They were confined there like the jewish ghettos in New York. What is considered Argentinian culture is that of european origin and again that doesn't make us european.

Yes, it was considered an intersting novelty. Unfortunately for you, the first families did not contribute heavily to American culture- there's that developing country education again.
>American education everybody. Natives were fully genocided except from the extreme north where their culture remained among them. They were confined there like the jewish ghettos in New York. What is considered Argentinian culture is that of european origin and again that doesn't make us european.

Oh yeah, Evola, Yockey, Guenon etc knew nothing. The fact they don't suck USA cock or that they were philosophers discredit them instantly. Same can be said for the pro USA authors.


>This is all recent shit. Furthermore, it is only a stereotype.Can you offer anything better than cliches?
Is not recent. The american 'way of life' was based in a pure materialistic approach (muh bigger land, muh bigger house, muh 2 cars). Manifest deatiny is another example.

>Yes, it was considered an intersting novelty. Unfortunately for you, the first families did not contribute heavily to American culture- there's that developing country education again.
They did. Their sole presence and difference from the natives is a contribution.

>Nope. In fact, most Argentinians have native ancestry. Argentinian "education"- I can see why your universities don't even make the list, your country is an embarrassment
Typical american stupidity again. The 20% thing comes from a study done in Mendoza a province next to Chile (which you didn't even bother to cite). Do the same study in the South and you'll get a 0%. Go to the extreme north and the average argentinian will be probably half amerindian.

Mind you, +30% of white americans have african ancestry, specially in the South. And that doesn't make them less a person btw.

Also you re only proving the materialistic approach again. 'I'm 100 white. Therefore I'm superior and european'.

They're joke philosophers, none of them are taken seriously. You pay attention to their pathetic diatribes because they espouse what you happen to believe. One could easily say: Italians are talkative, they use hand gestures- are they the product of negro culture?
>Is not recent. The american 'way of life' was based in a pure materialistic approach (muh bigger land, muh bigger house, muh 2 cars). Manifest deatiny is another example.
More basic cliches. The average American cared more for religion and public morality than did the average Eurocuck.
>They did. Their sole presence and difference from the natives is a contribution.
Nonsense, the natives were barely present for most of our history, and no they did not. In fact, the first families of virginia saw their culture stomped out by the hordes of British immigrants. You presume to teach me history, but you yourself know nothing.
>Typical american stupidity again. The 20% thing comes from a study done in Mendoza a province next to Chile (which you didn't even bother to cite). Do the same study in the South and you'll get a 0%.
I don't give a damn, the point was culture, and a nation tends to homogenize its various regions. Moreover, a study in Buenos Aires revealed the average Argentinian to have 6% black ancestry and 14% amerindian.
>Mind you, +30% of white americans have african ancestry, specially in the Sout
Generally, they have less than 2% African ancestry.
>Also you re only proving the materialistic approach again. 'I'm 100 white. Therefore I'm superior and european'.
I don't give a damn for Europe or its culture. I'm just saying that no serious student, given the cultural and demographic climate of the average American settlement during this period of time, would say that Amerindian culture contributed majorly
