I'm studying them atm in uni, they definitely havent given up on the word

That's good

Do they claim anglo saxon england was a multicultural paradise

not particularly

No they just claim the word is racist

Doubt

lol you can doubt all you like

I will dont worry faggot

There was a bit about how much danes and english interact, thats about it

The article I read said the word 'Anglo-Saxon' was a white supremacist phrase that wasn't inclusive enough or something like that

But didn't mention anything about the Anglo Saxons themselves

Just the word

Yeah ive seen that article, it was pretty dumb

Anglo-Saxons themselves probably werent much more or less racist than everyone else in the medieval era

i think the tl;dr is some actual white supremacists co-opt it, esp in the ameri-sphere, but that should not mean you have to eliminate it in the right context

Ofc

The establishment of England was in direct opposition to Danelaw

Yeah its mainly yankee trickery

and they were close groups

@Crafty Try again

Yeah it's used in America

Its used here too, but to call yourself anglo saxon is larpy

Americans love the term way too much

i said especially. not exclusively

I mean its a cool term

Cool science bro

Americans love claiming European heritage

A lot of americans are english heritage though

or brit

german

No

Ye but you always get the few that are annoyingly insistent on it

Self reported census results in that

It is quite fun to see them claiming theyre Irish and because their great great grandaddy was from Ireland

The autosome analysis puts the average american at around 50% brit

Ye stuff like that

With it higher in places like Maine

Plastic paddies are the worse

Why would you want to be part of a nation which has existed as our mat

Especially if they have very strong opinions on Irish independence
