It's about racial characteristics. You're not British no matter how much you want that to be true, because your ancestors lived thousands and thousands of years in a whole diferent environment than that of the British isles, and thus, went on a physical, spiritual, and mental evolution different from that of the British race. You can call yourself white but not British, because under that facade of "i speak perfect english" and "grew up in Britain", lies a different ethnic background which makes your behavior, line of thought and action, different from those that share their lineage with Shakespeare and so many other greats.

That's what I'm saying dude, the people who lived in britain before they were mixed would still be called "british", what's the difference between a race being mixed before and it being mixed now? If what makes someone's dna "british" is arbitrary (the definition is the same regardless of genetic makeup, as you just admitted) there's no reason to make the distinction at all, because the basis of said distinction is arbitrary.

No they wouldn't. Roman Bretons have nothing in common with the Anglo-Saxons that surpassed them, just as you have nothing in common with said Anglo-Saxons. There was no significant degree of mixture after the Anglo-Saxons, as you try to imply. They are the true British.
>If what makes someone's dna "british" is arbitrary
It's far from arbitrary because it comes from Nature itself. Again, process of evolution shaped both races which intermingled and produced a new one. You are not part of that new one. If you have a kid with an Anglo-Saxon, it will be a new race, without any history whatsoever.

If you also think as a byproduct of this worldview the majority of individuals on earth a part of different races due to admixture, I don't disagree. Very few people define "british" as "a person with the exact genetic makeup of people directly after the introduction of saxon DNA" but rather "a person born and raised in britain." If the full extent of your argument is that every person with mixed ancestry has nothing in common with their parent races (even though they LITERALLY share the same DNA) then we have nothing to argue about, that's a difference of opinion.

In this case, it's more important to disrupt said conversation than attempt to actually argue against a source if it is posted. 4chan is generally not the place for intellectual discourse, any source posted supporting either world view can usually be dismissed easily. People here aren't convinced to change their opinions by sources, but rather memes, insults, and argumentation. It's especially true for crime stats, leftists can easily just say blacks are less educated/poor due to slavery, and rightists can just say they genetically have a lower IQ. I've stopped trying to convince people about stuff like this because it never ends up in a change of opinion, just two people continuously trying to get the high ground over eachother.

If Yang argues that UBI is better than all the other current welfare programs, it's almost guaranteed that this is because his overlords have done the math and figured out it's cheaper for them to literally give the masses 1000 bucks than for them to pay for medicare/medicaid and social security.

UBI isn't socialism. As Yang says, it's capitalism except your income doesn't start at zero. Also it's long been popular among libertarians, who think that by giving people the $1000 indiscriminately you don't need the bloated bureaucracies monitoring recipients as you do with most welfare programs. You simply give them the money and they're free to do what they want with it. The hope is that it encourages entrepreneurship and stimulates economic growth by enabling people to consume more. For those who think consumers are already wasting too much money on things they don't need it's probably not a very attractive idea.

The fact that ethnic divide in the Americas, South Africa and parts of Europe still exists still exists (except in urbanite bourgeois circles where coexistence and multiculturalism are being pushed as cultural propaganda) just goes to show that assimilation works with those who are already very similar to yourself or if the foreign elements to be assimilated are introduced in absolutely miniscule amounts. Even Australia's cities are divided into ethnic neighborhoods.

Well, I have been trying to illustrate to you that the concept of race becomes meaningless the moment a person is culturally assimilated.

Do you think it makes sense to call Barack Obama a Kenyan? Because it doesn't. If he went back to Kenya, all the Kenyans he met would overprice their goods because he has no idea Kenyans engage in haggling.

And the same shit applies to white Americans. Nobody would call John Smith from New England a fucking Brit just because he moved back to Dorset. But his great-grandkids? They would certainly not be Americans.

The point is, he’s right. Your ancestry effectively means jackshit when it comes to your overall cultural assimilation. Race has some attributes that effectively separate people generally, none can differ in that, but I think culture is obviously so important that a black Brit wouldn’t get along with the black youth of America like a white aristocrat from America would :3

>> No.13618608

It's true though. Nobody in Kenya would think Obama was a Kenyan, just like I, being Norwegian, don't think Minnesotans are Norwegians, even though a lot of their genes come from Norway.

Which is my whole point. You think that your national identity is under some kind of threat because of immigration, when the likely scenario is that the culture they bring with them is the culture that will be destroyed, which is what history actually shows.

Blacks in America, are American. They aren't Hutu or Tutsi, or Yoruba or Kenyan or Somali. They are Americans.
