@hvsperus@Anglo_Futurist If you want to play that game then Native Americans are not indigenous to the US, they came across the land bridge from Siberia. Nobody is indigenous to anywhere outside of Africa. Use common sense
@Scuttlest48@reddit_lies This isn't actually a 9 year old, 9 year olds don't know The Waterboy, this is a grown adult likely still living at home trying to get their mum to watch an Asian cartoon with them. So the average redditor
@Speed_of_smell@TheHooterBear@SillyBWoman I'm suggesting people are free to post their observations on X, even if you think it's insensitive and nobody cares about your appeals to morality
I am not the person you asked but I would rather the Union just dissolve at this point so "Britishness" can't be used as a sanitised alternative identity with which to attack the English culture and ethnicity.
If "English" was a formal nationality this assault on the native people would be much harder as there would already be an "English" on the census for black and brown people to check. It would make the bad faith conflations impossible.
@CJRVEE@GBNEWS@MaajidNawaz Actually watch the video. Maajid agrees with us. That he is not ethnically English. It's Stuart that says "it's about choice". You wrote so much in response to a video you clearly didn't watch lol
@tokyonosensei@GBNEWS@MaajidNawaz Are you fucking dumb? Did you watch the video The brown fella is agreeing with us, he is saying he's not English. It's the white guy who wants the anti-English ethnocide
@gwynedd8364@bap_head@merf_sdp@grok I am not based in the states. I am a born and bred Englishman, in England. Where are you getting US from? My X profile says I'm in Laos because I'm good at masking my online location but I have no idea where you're getting the US from. I've not been to the US since, I think 2004.
@SarahLudford@JoshBabarinde "I just don't agree" isn't a rebuttal.
I've seen a lot of stupid behavior from the British government over the years but this might be the stupidest, it's just completely vibes-based and intellectually bankrupt.
Bushra, behave, this is insidious. You yourself have referred to yourself as Pakistani. But you were born in Britain. Not Pakistan. So what were you referring to when you called yourself Pakistani? Your ethnicity. I don't know enough about you to know whether that's Pubjabi or Sindhi or what, but it is your ethnicity.
You are British. You may also identify as culturally English and we welcome that. There is already a page on the census for national identity. But you're not ethnically English. And that's OK.
A very audacious strawman. Nobody is saying non-white people don't belong here.
The only English ethnicity on the census is "White English" because the English ethnicity is a white ethnicity. That is not racism, it is the product of Northern European geography. If this was a bill to introduce a page on the census to identify your cultural or civic identity then fine. But it's not.
Black and Asian British nationals have not been here long enough in sufficient numbers to undergo an ethnogenesis and emerge as a new, distinct ethnicity. That's not racist, it's just science
We've established it's happening but have you pulled at the thread as to "why?". The only rational conclusion is out of hatred for White European Christians. The hatred is not coming from blacks or Asians. They may be attaining more and more positions within government but this started when they were not holding these positions in such numbers. Financiers with their guns to the government's head have overwhelming overrepresentation of one ethnic group. Who historically hate White European Christians. Or "goyim".
@Merlinchon "Me? English? No, I have no roots here, my family are from mainland Europe. But if one day I wake up and decide to lie and say they're not, you have to say I'm English or you're a racist"
@gwynedd8364@bap_head@merf_sdp@grok It's not, no matter how much you say it is. I've given you a lot of my time and energy explaining why that is. If you choose it ignore that all I can do is leave you with @grok to explain it from hereon out, because why put my human time into someone wilfully ignorant
@gwynedd8364@bap_head@merf_sdp@grok I answered this already. We're going in circles now because you refuse to practise epistemic rationality.

@gwynedd8364@merf_sdp It's a good question. If I were to hazard a guess it'd be as clarification for people who struggle to parse the difference between ethnicity and nationality, which is clearly an issue as you yourself were apparently unaware of the distinction based on your initial question
British is both a nationality and an umbrella term for the British ethnicities. A good comparison is Pakistani. It refers to citizens of Pakistan. But if we were to say someone is ethnically Pakistani, we would actually be saying they are ethnically Pubjabi, Sindhi, Pashtun, or one of the other, smaller ethnicities found in Pakistan. When we say someone is British, we typically mean a British national. But if we were to say someone is "White British" ethnically, we would typically mean they are English, Welsh OR Scots.
