Is Suvi Korean or are some of her ancestors Korean? There's a difference.

[-] Zenith@lemm.ee 8 points 5 days ago

And if she doesn’t know either way that’s on her parents not on her

[-] breecher@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 days ago

She is American.

It's also an ethnicity so calm down, Prussian.

[-] chocosoldier 1 points 5 days ago

culture ethnicity and nationality are all different things that we often use the same words as descriptors for

Been reading Nationalism by Rabindranath Tagore. So, I am wondering if National identity of an individual is actually taught and whether nations is even a good thing.

I guess, I turning into a bit of an anarchist.

[-] lath@lemmy.world 18 points 6 days ago

National identity is definitely taught, but it's also acquired naturally. We like to belong, so even if we weren't assigned a specific nationality, i believe we'd eventually be making our own, just more freely and dynamic.

Identity is aquired naturally. National Identity isn’t.

In other systems our core identity might be city, or village, or lake, or mountain range, or tribe, or class, or job, or beliefs, or culture, or relgion, or clan, or langauge, or dialect etc.

National Identity (Nationalism) is a rather new thing to be mainstream. Only a couple centuries.

Maybe this is too idealistic, but I strongly believe that instead of identifying with one arbitrary group or another, perhaps we should aim to identify as human or even as part of the nature itself.

Nationalism as an ideology is relatively new, identity and sentiment tied to a state and shared cultural grouping is very old and it's actually quite debated when you could really say it evolved.

For example:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalism_in_the_Middle_Ages

And if you ever want to fluster a classical studies professor, ask them whether they consider Roman identity to be nationalism in front of a peer.

Amazing how they got the single Korean child existing right now for their format

[-] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

"Then what the fuck'd'ja ask me for??!"

[-] random_character_a@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Interesting. Suvi is a Korean name?

[-] Halosheep@lemm.ee 25 points 6 days ago

No it's a method of cooking vacuum sealed food, I'm pretty sure.

[-] BleakBluets@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago

That's Sous Vide. You must have meant those large cars that replaced station wagons.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 6 days ago

Nah, that's an SUV. You're thinking of the main human character of True Blood

[-] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 4 points 5 days ago

No, that’s Sookie. You’re thinking of Katie Holmes daughter.

[-] Klear@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 days ago

Is she Korean?

[-] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 days ago

No it's actually a type of large automobile, a sport utility vehicle

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago
[-] random_character_a@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Yes and means summer. Just haven't seen it used anywhere else, so had to ask.

[-] chocosoldier 2 points 5 days ago
