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
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
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
and know nothing about the history
Slave morality be like
Yes
elaborate?
its a strong component but not the biggest, look at the note on the wikipedia for this claim; its self reported ancestry (we've established americans like to make fallacious claims of heritage) and english americans are far far more likely to just exclaim that they are "American"
