Let's cut to the chase. If your grandparents legally emigrated from India, both your mom and dad are of Indian bloodlines, and you were born here, are you just as "American" as a Mayflower descendant? My vote, obviously, is an unequivocal yes. Who disagrees?

There's probably close to 0 cases of anyones Indian grandparents coming here bc that couldnt have happened prior to 1965 Hart Cellers act. There were very few Indians here until probably the 1990s and even then there were still very few until the last 10 years. Nobody had a problem with them until a lot of them started coming here and we have seen that their culture is one of rudeness, arrogance, zero lack of situational awareness, littering, and lack of courtesy for everyone around them. I know they come from a culture where its good to rip off your fellow indian and get one up on them but they need to learn thats not how we roll here. I had a chat with an Indian guy at a bar in New York and he was friendly but he started lecturing me about my white privilege. I quickly swatted him to half court with telling him about he must be at the top of his caste to even be able to have money to leave India and that the Dalits in his country will never be anything more than slum dogs so spare me the privilege talk.

From National Review:

A normal human might ask what sort of idiot, running for elective office in Texas, decides to take sides against Longhorn fans when the local team just erased a 20-point deficit to clinch a thrilling one-point win over the top-ranked team in the country, but that is not the only sort of idiot that Bo French is.

And yet, defenses of Bo Frenchism have sprung up from the most online quarters of social media. Among other things, what they have revived once again is a debate over how important it is to be a "Heritage American" with multigenerational family roots in the country, to the point that second- and third-generation Americans (I'm one of the latter, all four grandparents having come here in 1923) are somehow less American and less American in a way that should be considered greatly important.

This is nonsense. There's a motte-and-bailey quality to this argument, as if those of us who don't buy it are claiming that having family roots in this country is entirely irrelevant (although I would say that at this juncture, it is of vanishingly little difference whether your ancestors came here in the 1650s or the 1850s).


I read this and I still cant determine what his point is... it seems like he just wanted to write an article to call Bo French names but ultimately concede that he is right that legacy matters.

What really confuses me is when Jewish Supremacists like Ben Shapiro step all over Heritage Americans who descend from the sons and daughters of the revolution... but still expect us to support their claims that they are entitled to the land in the levant?

My family has been in America for several hundred years... most Israelis can only trace their roots in Israel back in several decades...

I know this is a meme but Indians getting hit by trains is a very real thing. My brother has been living in the UK for a few years and he told me they have had to stop his train on more than one occasion bc an Indian or Pakistani person was just on the tracks in the way of a train.



The best memes or stereotypes are always grounded in truth.

WTH is wrong with you that your only argument is name-calling?

You're the one that wants to call everyone a Neo Nazi if they dont want to be replaced by Indians and muslims in their own home towns. When Indians make up 45% of the kids in Frisco schools you might think thats not normal. I know I find it alarming. Again, I dont really care about who's going to UT but its shocking how quicky North Dallas is turning into a foreign country. Also, its not just Dallas bc there are places in other metro areas like Alpharetta suburban Atlanta where the same thing is happening very quickly.


Frank Galvin expects all white people to be ethnically replaced for his sins... and if you fight back you are a bad person! lol....

Nobody is being replaced. The whole idea is stupid. The existence of one human does not negate the existence of another human, absent murder.

Universities are becoming increasingly brown, and it appears white males want less and less to do with college.

This is a scary trend as college grads ultimately become the future CEOs and politicians, so we're going to lose our country if white male enrollment keeps dropping.


You believe CEOs have to be white men?

Very few people become CEOs. Owning a Plumbing company with 14 employees can be rewarding. Sometimes that looks way more fulfilling than middle management at IBM.


I believe Americans should run American companies. I also believe Americans should govern over Americans.

You have to be a US citizen to hold office. So what is your concern over the second prong there?


You guys throw the term "American" around very loosely. Clearly we're not talking about American citizens, rather the American PEOPLE

Heritage Americans.

I had a chat with an Indian guy at a bar in New York and he was friendly but he started lecturing me about my white privilege. I quickly swatted him to half court with telling him about he must be at the top of his caste to even be able to have money to leave India and that the Dalits in his country will never be anything more than slum dogs so spare me the privilege talk.


Man, you are a stud. And it was a hypothetical that could apply to any nation. unless you would give a different answer for Norwegians.

You are the one who believes nonsense. If there are 10 million Hindus in the DFW area, they are not going to stop people from practicing Christianity. And if they work hard, the success they enjoy will multiply throughout the economy regardless of skin color. We want an economy that grows, and we need immigration to make that happen. I am all for vetting immigrants, but imposing limits on those who will be productive is bad policy.


Yeah, ask the Christians in India if they feel that way these days. I can assure you that they don't.

Ask Christians in the muslim countries if they feel "free" to do what they want.

You clearly don't live in an area that has tons of muslims - because if you did you'd know that they absolutely don't want "whitey's" kids in their day-cares, schools, etc.

You wear clown shoes because you want to pretend all cultures are the same. Brainwashed through and through.

You have no clue what you are taking about, so please stop.

He is a U.S. citizen…

But he also holds Canadian citizenship. So is he Canadian?

He was born in Africa. So is he African? Or is he African-American?

We see how quickly these concepts break down in a worldview that supports both globalism & near instant citizenship…but also still holding tight to strong ethnic identity and meanings….well at least for some groups who are allowed that privilege.

I would assume generational Canadians don't consider him a "Canadian". We know the ANC left wing backers and many Black South Africans don't consider him "African". And American liberals would protest the idea of him being an "American-American".

P.S.

For my own self…no he not an "American". He might become one at some point… but he was not raised here and it takes longer than a few years to become part of a 250+ year old & long established ethno-cultural group

Jobs from American companies built by Americans are being stolen. When one's ability to earn a livable wage is taken, so is their dignity. This leads to suicide. Lives are being lost because of your suicidal empathy... but you're old and you got to live your dreams so sacrificing young Americans is no skin off your back!
This thread is the epitome of the decline of American strength. Blame shifting cowards who like liberals and other "underserved" communities shifted their life choices, educational, and competency shortcomings to other targets.

The same cultural rationale that led minority groups to wallow in a cycle of misery has now permeated this pathetic xenophobic political myth of "ethnic" helplessness. I can't believe how the algorithmic echo chambers have fed this vapid emotional appeal.

You are probably right…but decades of "oppressor/oppressed" narratives from on high (mainly from academia) and a government-educational-corporate system that rewards groups and ethnicities based on identitiarian grounds..along with mass migration was always going to lead to serious problems for the USA.

Not sure how modern America can walk any of this back or put the balkans boogeyman back in the bottle.

"Uncontrolled immigration threatens to deconstruct the nation we grew up in and convert America into a conglomeration of peoples with almost nothing in common-not history, heroes, language, culture, faith, or ancestors. Balkanization beckons." -Buchanan
