A single relatively homogenous genetic group
Hence why genomic companies can tell you what your % English is
Not true though, is it
Since the Norman invasion, the Vikings
This is why non-retarded people build English identity around values instead
So you cannot read then?
Noted.
Disagree with my source? You have comprehension issues.
Except he didnt rebuke anything within it
There's a difference between an opinion piece and the press release for a scientific study
Sort of blows a hole in the whole 'nation of immigrants' thing
Which is what I was constantly told
if you disagree with the janny you get in his dungeon

Cool
this one is good too
I don't find the dinstinction helpful, because there are people who you would call genetically "English" who are culturally not at all English (progressives, internationalists, communists) and people who are not genetically English who are definitely culturally English
Fuck off saxon and Norman scum
Britain belongs to the celts
I guess the question then becomes "What do you want, and why does it matter?"
If you dont believe in an english people then you cant really advocate for an english culture can you
It's not a case of whether I 'believe' in something - it exists
Do I think it's important? Not so much
A group of people can have a culture without being a people on a genetic level
Culture derives from a people
Culture is largely a socially constructed thing anyway
In material terms
No it doesn't
Culture derives from a people in a place over a period of time experiencing an environment, impacted and acted upopn by other cultures/peoples
These are non-static concepts that change over time
They can be considered evolutionary
You donβt need the same ethnicity to be in one culture
You fucking mongo
Cope
Culture is largely social behaviour, and norms, Some people might have a genetic relationship with Anglo-Saxons yet i don't think anyone would say that they still maintain an Anglo Saxon culture
If Englands population is replaced with pakis, you wont be seeing too many crumpets, roast dinners or fish and chips
