Never. This country will become Idiocracy before people revolt

No, they just have way better milk than us

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.

Isn't this basically an egg cream

Reply to some of these comments big guy cmon

I wouldn't if I was a dev either. Maybe all you self righteous crusaders would but I personally wouldn't risk becoming the target of some deranged billionaire risking my career in the process.

Yeah that's valid justification. It's actually a little more "I don't want to pay and I know how to not get caught"

Yeah well edits are always shown on lemmy unlike reddit so you're definitely wrong. also for the record that commenter was absolutely correct you sounded like a corporate bot and I assumed you were one until this reply

Are you under the impression that we need to stick to legal discussion here?

Easy, by having an inflated ego and a holier than thou attitude! 👍

Where the fuck are the Zebra pens

More infuriatingly, they skip over real drama in promotion of this fabricated bullshit

Are you under the impression that newspapers are still in fashion? Feel like they're kind of right on that one.

Fuck off dude

What a childish response.

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
