>>78763927
a sense of connection and continuity to both the early colonial period and the Revolutionary period. Identity with the Republican foundations of our government, liberty and freedom of association (ties in with religious identity). Commonality of language, culture, heritage, and denominations and theology that comes out of the Reformation, in particular the English and Scottish reformations

Just because you don't have any identity doesn't mean there isn't an American identity

Yeah but for Europeans it's the same as their national identity. It's only two separate things for new world cunts like ours.
>>
>>78763733
depends on when/where you are
>>
lol WASPs are a minority in the USA. you have more people declaring non-English/American ancestry now even in the white population

talk about being delusional
>>
>>78763431
McGregor has boxing experience too and is much younger tho
>>
>>78761734
why do you think this is race related? McGregor is a walking meme and a massive underdog going into this, people always support underdogs.
>>
>>78764522
British american is still the largest ethnic group here
>>
>>78764565
it's not that it's just race-related, it's that it is also race-related

yeah there's no need to blame everything on 'racism' but it's also fine to remember that tribal sentiment still exists. you have access to the rest of 4chan and twitter, you can see for yourself
>>
>>78764646
sure, if you combine all those categories it is. but overall it's still a minority declared ancestry among white Americans, even if it's the most important one
>>
>>78764565
Increasing racial tensions globally. Especially in the US with BLM/Charlottesville and confederate monuments shit
>>
>>78764784
>declared ancestry
what do you think people are going to declare, the fact that they're "boring" WASPs or the fact that they're French or Greek or some shit because their mothers great-uncle's cousin was from there? Also most British-Americans have been in the US for so long that they often do not even know their ancestry and just enter in "American" under ethnicity.
>>
>>78764646
Pretty sure there are more people of German decent here than British. It varies regionally of course but I think nationwide German is the #1 ethnic background.
>>
>>78764899
yeah dude, that's why I said declared ancestry, actual British ancestry is higher but newer ancestry has overtaken it in that regard

but even actual British ancestry is probably still <50% these days. honestly, WASPism is kinda weird and I only see regressive types uphold it because it's just not reasonable when you see the situation on the ground. but of course American cultural (and this has changed too, look at all the Catholics lol)-political tradition is a different matter
>>
>>78761734
Because people have more loyalty to their race than their nationality
>>
>>78764899
Why are Americans obsessed with not having "boring" ancestry? Why are they so obsessed with ancestry at all?
>>
>>78763420
Kys seriously. You are not irish
>>
>>78764970
its statistically germany, but "american" means 13 colonies origin so they are english or scotchirish

and id bet money most african americans are part british, or scottish , probably a few who are more than 50% "white" based on dna (not skin color)

and thats nopt even mentioning how strong anti-german sentiment in WWI caused quite a few german americans to re label themselves english americans

you can really argue it a few ways, since we self report (pic related is a bad example, british includes scotts in this one, but in 2000 we onlye had 8% english decent, while german was 16%)

It depends on how you count it
is someone who is 51% english and 49% german counted in the data as 1 english person, or is he counted as 0.51 english people, and 0.49 german people
and thats not even mentioning the huge error that comes from self reporting instead of universal dna testing

also pic related

>>78764970
Anglo-Americans have pretty much completely assimilated Protestant Germans and the colonial Dutch, among others. Just because someone doesn't list "British" or whatever on the census doesn't mean that much

>>78765650
this, Europeans are as interested in ancestry as Americans are and do "muh heritage" stuff just as much. From my own experience the tendency with ethnic identification is an aspect of how we voraciously mock and fuck with each other during our schooling
