Hey, 'Peans, how come you think a country larger than your pseudo continent is a homogenous hivemind?
E: what Ive learned from this comment is that apparently, all europeans share 1 single trait, which is just utterly horrid reading comprehension
Because Europe is so fucking homogenous that we stared 2 world wars just because we agree so much
We agreed so much in the past that the 30 years war could never have happened in Euro... Oh.
They agree with eachother so much in eastern Europe that there are no wars and everyone just hugs. Oh wait.
Well, we could agree on those two things, at least..
If you think saying "that nation isnt homogenous" means "all other nations are homogenous" you probably shouldnt weigh in on adult convos
Erm... Larger by land mass? Yes. Larger by GDP? No. Larger by number of inhabitants? No. Larger by amount of vastly different cultures that somehow get stuff like this done whole very decidedly not being a hive mind? Also no.
Where in your quote does it say europe has no immigrants?
Id just refer you back to the quote, that blatantly doesnt say what you said it does
I guess, but you kinda look like a dumbass quoting something incorrectly. You shouldnt need an in depth thread to explain why your false quote maybe technically could possibly be misconstrued.
Makes everything else you said look suspect by comparison.
You slapped down a quote and then said, "so, theres that."
About a quote that explicitly does not say "that."
And then called the dude a racist.
Disagreements about which landmass is more culturally diverse is one thing, but youre the ignoramus here, steed.
That has nothing to do with what you or the other dude said. You mocked the other comment for, by your claim, saying europe has no immigrants.
The existence of immigrants in the US, regardless of if you think there are more or less of them than europe, isnt a statement on the existence of immigrants at all in europe.
Did you read what you wrote?
Yeah, but youre doing that to deflect and hide from actually answering anything.
Do you maybe realize you fucked up? And are just too embarassed to admit it cause you think the other guy is a shitheel, and dont want to own up to a mistake made to a shitheel?
Because that just also makes you look like a shitheel.
So, you want to just completely change the conversation because you fucked up this one?
Ok, define immigrant then.
I never said they didnt say anything racist.
I said you fucked up your quote, by lying about what it said.
Can you read? Could you actually read and respond to the words presented to you, instead of making up secret words you hope I am thinking and hiding from you to respond to?
Having to play this game where I need to repeat myself over and over until you actually read whats written is pretty old.
Im just gonna take that as admission that you just didnt read any of the comments you responded to.
Which also implies the other guy didnt even say anything racist, you just made that up too.
Oh, back to this completely unrelated cry fest?
My personal definition is 2fold. Immigrant either means someone who has just crossed national lines with intent to take up residence, or it means a descendant of the former within 2 generations who still feels explicit ties to their parent or grandparents birthplace over current national ties.
Can you read that? Or do I need to copy paste it a few times for you
Thats a cute lie. You didnt expect that definition from me and have no way to try and twist it into a gotcha, I take it?
Guess I was right, you are a dipshit. But we both knew that, didnt we?
Y'all could've just looked up the numbers on immigrants as a percent of population:

As an American, you're being silly. You've heard of the Silk Road? The Mediterranean? The Old World has been rubbing shoulders with each other since 4000+ years ago. We just got here in comparison.
The majority of the immigrant population in 'Murica are from Europe.
I bet this person is one of those "actually, I'm 1/8th Irish" people...
It is certainly more diverse lol
American moment
The US is smaller than Europe in size of population and in area.
