Actually, I just have a really low opinion of Americans claiming to be European

[–] LordOfLocksley 1 points 1 month ago

Modern day Ireland and modern day America couldn't be more different. Back in the early 1700s you could claim they were similar, but these days they are so far apart.

I would, and do, put a label on everyone from USA that calls them American. LeBron is an American, you are an American, Ken Yong is American. You're all American. Nothing more. American. American. American.

Your culture is so different from anything in Europe, there is no comparison. It's American culture.

It'll be a cold day in hell before any European recognises an American LARPing as one of them.

Thank you for proving my point. DNA isn't nearly as important as where you grew up.

Please never use the phrase European American ever again. It's pathetic. I'm surprised you haven't claimed to be related to the British royal family, just to try and out do the other "European Americans".

Oh man, and here I thought things would be getting spicy in the "genius" billionaire class

God, now this makes it a difficult one.

On one hand a Trump presidency is awful, on the other hand seeing Elon Musk have a mental breakdown as he can no longer sell Teslas in America is almost worth while

I lived in the Netherlands for 7 years, could speak fairly decent Dutch, and had permanent residency... I don't consider myself Dutch at all.

Likewise living in Ireland for a while didn't make you Irish

You're both cringe for claiming you're something other than American. If you have the faintest understanding of the history of America, you'll realise that having British Isles/Western European DNA is nothing special.

If you're white and hold an American passport your DNA is mostly coming from white settlers, aka British/Irish/French/Scandinavian.

Claiming to be those is disrespectful for the people who actually live in those countries.

That's discrimination against the immortal

Eat a gram of Uranium, it contains 20 billion calories and will feed you for the rest of your life

Nah, just get the government to send in the army to seize the assets and infrastructure. At this point in time, these companies are the enemy of the people, and what else is the army for, then to protect its people from enemies
