@Skellington Wait, what?

>all white people are german
Lol there was one guy here who thought so
No their all nordlings
We wuz vikangz en shiet
The most common ethnic root among Euro Americans is German, but even still it’s too broad
>Multiculturalism amongst Euros can work as proven by US
false
ahistorical
white america has never been multicultural
it has always been radically assimilationist
germans and scandos would get tar-and-feathered if they refused to speak english, even in places like Minnesota and Wiscosin where they constituted a majority of the population
^^^
tar-and-feathered after the 19th century
after the big hyphenate scare

> “There is no room in this country,” Roosevelt bellowed, “for hyphenated Americanism…German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.”
-Theodore Roosevelt
this was the prevailing attitude in americe through the 60s
yes, the hyphenate scare
America existed before Roosevelt my dude
also, they we all forget that the Civil War happen?
it was the motivating force for the 1924 immigration restrictions: anglo culture would not be allowed to become a minority even if it meant immigration must come to a complete halt
tell me with a straight face that the North and South had the same culture
so non-anglo immigration was completely shut down for a good 20 years
and everyone was forcibly assimilated
and even then it took a depression and a war to unite people
>America didn't exist before the 20th century
>America doesn't have regional cultures
multiculturalism is a fucking blight
different levels of analysis
Right now the main American culture is so dead it is harder to assimilate people
puritans and southerners and all the rest all fall within the umbrella of English-American culture
it's all multicultural. this no different live of analysis
they are merely subsets of a greater whole
ahh yes, and Spain also has one culture
