So far you've shown common identiy to be what unifies a nation
what's a French person? Before the French government essentially committed linguicide there were many different minority groups in France
but you haven't proven where race matters in all this
The point is, what is wrong with a nation wanting to keep to themselves and unite their people as one culture, ethnicity, identity, religion if any, etc..
Occitans, Normans, Basques, Bretons, etc.
Welly your idenity is an arbitrary cut off
the same in Germany
Cause different fench people will have different idenitits
I don't see what the overall unifier even is
Because ethnicity does not determine culture, identity, and religion if said person has assimilated into that society
would you not see identity politics between a Saxon and a Bavarian or a Norman and an Occitan
I'm not sure what the french socalist and the right wingerswould have in common
Culture, race, background, etc.. @Somedudewithaname
BUt dude
Okay im an american fro ma generally liberal area
Likewise
do i share anything in common with some dude from the rural south?
Nope.
But we still both consider ourselves american
that's a pretty destructive attitude
you do share many things in common with some dude from the rural south
@agag me?
You are both American, you are both white presumably, you both may share the same religion, etc..
nope not white
though we may share the same religio
What are you
but our views on it may be different
shared language, shared history, shared political traditions, shared holidays, etc.

So you’re saying an Italian immigrant to Poland who’s family has been living in Poland for 40 years and he has had grandchildren who follow the catholic faith and speak polish are undeserving of living in Poland and have their children be considered polish ?
Ahh okay, so would you be okay with lndia closing its' borders and denying immigration? @Somedudewithaname
My poltical tradition is very different than his, we share a language but anyone can learn a langauge, and holidays, I mean i guess but it doesn't seem like that big of an issue to me
Nope
I want india to be more open
and hopefully reunify with pakistan
because india is alreasy diverse as fuck
Languages are always able to be learned
we have 6 main lanauge famalies
