Never. This country will become Idiocracy before people revolt
They actually seem to be quite educated on the topic. Unlike yourself who seems to think that you’d have authority to speak on this issue because you have a certain passport? It’s really not that wild. I moved here as a first generation immigrant about 10 years ago & I pretty much concur what they are saying. Irish and American Italians in Boston and NJ respectively feel that they have more in common with their ‘home’ countrymen than fellow Americans, just one example. Personally I think there’s also an aspect of “oh I’m not just white, I’m actually 1/8 Irish”. Mind you that’s not what I think at all, why would I have a bias against you if you are white? But it’s almost like I’m asked to view them as more than “white American” when people tell me that stuff after I tell them where I’m from. You can imagine what their answers typically were when I asked about whether they often go back to visit family/home or foods they cook. It’s just ancestry, they have no actual ties to those lands.
One thing I will say though is that whenever I’d talk about this kind of thing is that people get weirdly defensive about it. Overall I learned just to let them say what they want to say, it’s not worth my energy trying to understand their mental gymnastics as to why they’re actually as Irish as I am Egyptian. They’re not ready or willing to have that conversation.
Come on dude it’s a white centric thing to make them feel more ethnic. No one else does this, even in the US. What you’re describing is locality pride so someone should be proud to be from a certain state. Not claiming relation/influence from a European country. Immigrants in the US are the first to want to call themselves American while racists refuse to accept that while saying they’re Irish or whatever the fuck.
Reply to some of these comments big guy cmon
I don’t know what the fuck you’re on but there are rules in golf dude. This comment is as bad as the actual post
Pesto needs a lot more oil but otherwise looks fantastic
Buddy. The inventor’s intention is not clear justification. Language becomes what is most colloquially used. You’ll be dying on this hill 20 years from now. You argue like a redditor, insufferable
Didn’t realize I was buddies with 99% of everyone that’s interacted with JSON!
Also didn’t know people used the term ‘plebs’ unironically, you sound like an absolute joy to be around
If you really just say Jason instead of jaysawn/J-sohn you’re nuts and probably drive everyone crazy with that
That’s not common sense. That’s greed.
They can only exist how they’re allowed to exist as the involuntarily designated sacrificial target of repressed anger from the justified pain of another people
I agree with most of what you said but justified pain of another people? As if holocaust survivors are the ones inflicting suffering onto Palestinians. What’s justified? Retaliation as a result of brutality does not constitute justification of pain on behalf the aggressor.
I don’t understand what’s funny. It’s developed with no competition, it’s open source, it’s definitely better than the current options out there and doesn’t cost money. Is it just audio snobs in here? I consider myself somewhat snobby re:audio but even I use wireless headphones. Some grade A snobbery in this thread. LDAC is great. You’re not convincing anyone to go back to wired headphones for day to day use
If it makes you feel any better, they would’ve found some other reason if he lost the election.
Well look, I’m not advocating for this coming government nor am I an economic expert. But in a vacuum one could impose tariffs on imported goods, tank the cost of labor in your own country, and force manufacturing back here, right? And in the long run, would be beneficial for local manufacturing instead of being so dependent on China. If it weren’t for the local oligarchy here I’d say it’s even a tough but fair plan for the economy. Knowing what we know, things will only get harder with no observable benefit for the working class as whatever improvement we manage to make will be sucked away by the ruling class. But the plan isn’t horseshit in a vacuum. Someone please feel free to tell me why I’m completely wrong as I’m not really speaking with too much conviction tbh
Pretty sure the plan is to actively tank the dollar
Are you like a boomer that can’t understand you’re not talking to the same person with every comment? You know lemmy is the whole forum, not a user you’re replying to right?
