My descendants came from Ireland. While watching Gangs of New York, at first I hated Bill, but then I started to respect him. After watching the film, an uncomfortable thought crossed my mind.
What if the reason America is a multicultural circus now, is because the US accepted Irish/Italian immigrants?
They were white and believed in Jesus so they weren't so far from the rest of Americans at the time.

As someone of the same descent, I would have to say the unfortunate answer is yes. Don't get too upset about it and blackpill yourself though, just work to prevent it from happening more in the future.

Thought of this often to be honest, my hometown is almost 80% Irish background, all mostly catholic, all vote for the left. They don’t even identify as English or British. And the main underlining factor is most of them are thick as pigshit. Ireland’s IQ I think is in mid 90s, so it’s clear evidence that IQ can’t change within a generation because most have been here since the 1800s. I don’t know how the Italians sorry.!
Hunter Carter
>What if the reason America is a multicultural circus now, is because the US accepted Irish/Italian immigrants? That's the reason why though. They never fully integrated into our society. Even the Germans took a hint when we beat them long enough. Only the Northern Europeans truly integrated into our country, Mediterraneans, even though I love them, never truly integrated into the US. Nancy Pelosi, ITALIAN! John F. Kennedy, IRISH!
Sebastian Martinez
Yet they brought unwanted crime and extreme drunkenness with them. It wasn't just a meme or muh racism. Large numbers of Italians - particularly Sicilians - brought all their old ways of organized crime and vendettas with them. They preyed on their new neighbors and MADE people hate them through their actions. The Irish created pandemonium in previously peaceful neighborhoods through their drunken fighting, fornication, stealing, and rioting.
Charles Campbell
There were definitely problems between catholic immigrants and Protestant natives. But I think the immigrants assimilated over time into a white American identity. What really brought on the multiculturalism circus was giving women rights movement and civil rights movement. These movements ultimately resulted in women having a big say until country's politics and minorities being mixed in with white society... a recipe for disaster imo
Xavier Stewart
The real underlying problem is Catholicism on that matter, it ends up creating a barrier that makes it hard to fully assimilate since they would imply converting; Problem is since so many ancestors fought to remain Catholic, that idea sounds like literal heresy.
The other problem for me personally is my family 5 generations in never mixed with an non-Irish person, which makes it really harder to identify as just an American. These are just my guesses though

didnt the west give refuge to millions of eastern european jews to escape the pogroms?
america itself took in more than a few million as a true gentile and naive act of humanity.
but the moment they arrived, the established german jews despised their eastern brethren. the german jews encouraged antisemitism upon the russian jews in US.
the goyim had no antisemitism in US, they welcomed the pogrom refugees, but as they accepted italians, they soon found out they made a terrible mistake. the jews, irish, and italians brought with them a wave of barbaric savagery, murder, crime, gangs, rapes unlike anything the WASP has seen.
the jews/italians transformed a crime-free puritan society into vicious gangland ruled by crime bosses. these mafia bosses quickly rose to the top of american society and legitimized illegal activities to establish their presence in the ruling oligarchy of america.
goys still ignored all the malevolent actions of the jews in america. goys died and fought to free the jews from adolf
Now the gandchildren- of those who fought the Germans to free the Jews- are all genocided and dying thanks to the race replacement policies of the Jews their grandparents fought for and saved. This is what they get for saving a cobra.
they turned their organized crime tactics into global politics

We will deal with the catholic problem later OP. Yes, Papists are subversive honorary shitskins and semites but at least irish and (northern) italians are genetically european.

That's not true Nigel. What's happened is that many of the descendants of original colonists, particularly those in the South, now just report their ancestry as "American".
These are people whose ancestors arrived in the 16-1700s, many of them English, Scottish, Scots-Irish.

To be honest with you, the original Americans, meaning the descendants of colonists, should be considered their own ethnic group at this point, similar to the Afrikaner.

They're Catholic. During the original nativist movement, one of the biggest opposition towards Irish and Southern European immigration was because they would be more loyal to the Catholic Church than the United States.
Although for the most part these immigrants have assimilated (you can no longer have as decent a chance to predict their vote based on ethnicity), it's hard to argue that the nativists were completely wrong, especially with all the leftists swallowing whatever nonsense the Pope occasionally spews out of his mouth

For sure. The Brits have had 100s of years of anti-Irish propaganda, and then Irish immigration. Same reason they don't like the French and Spanish.

I'm deeply bothered by how much Irish blood I have. Like 35%. Publicly, I only mention the German (50%) and Norwegian (15%) parts.
All that said, the Irish and Italians have assimilated into US society and now pass the low bar of America's definition of whiteness. You may be right that letting them in set a bad precedent, but they're obviously not the issue.
Nathaniel Garcia

I don't believe the majority of posters "hate" the Irish either. It's "banter".
As I'm saying, the British narrative, has become Pol's narrative, because of American larpers. Not sure what part your not getting. Are you one of the high IQ Scousers that was talked about earlier?
The Pope is still an absolute monarch of a theocracy, a position which is antithetical to American Constitutional Republicanism (I don't mean the political party). The Anti-Catholic views of the nativists is a bit hypocritical though when you consider the history of Maryland, a state named after the Virgin Mary and settled by Catholics.
Aaron Price

Jackson Clark
Yeah, and that would mean something, if the US was an actual functioning Republic, and ever was. It's always been an Oligarchy. The whole subplot of "Gangs of the New York" is how the Irish are co-opted to help dominate New York politics.
The US elite has always been corrupt, and plays the mob against each other.

>That Majority of current US territory was Catholic primarily. LOL what absolute horseshit. If you're talking about New Spain, New France, Florida; those areas were VERY sparsely populated by Europeans. In reality natives were in control of the vast majority of these territories until the United States took over.
Blake Murphy
So you honestly believe you're talking to Yanks from the WASP upper crust, who have nothing but love for anti-Irish memes?

The majority of the country may have been nominally controlled by Catholic European powers, but to say the majority of the country was EVER Catholic is a misnomer.
Leo Collins
>Germans Who?
Ayden Gray
I'm descended from catholic german and polish immigrants, so I'm a bit biased on this matter. However, in a way, you're right. The intra-white multiculturalism did lead to problems. Nowhere NEAR as massive as the problems of multiculturalism between entirely different races, but still. One could say that our acceptance of other white immigrants allowed the precedent to be pushed over toward accepting nonwhite immigrants later on.
The main problem is that in the early 1900s, when many immigrants from eastern europe (such as my great-grandparents) came over, there were jews coming in too. Tons of kikes came in during that period, and it's why we shut off immigration from eastern europe in the 1920s or so. And of course the jews were then the ones who went on to subvert and sabotage and open the floodgates to shitskins.
ON THE OTHER HAND, you have to remember that we had this giant open continent waiting to be colonized. There was space for everyone, and we needed warm bodies coming over to start homesteading the west. Had we not had lots of white immigration during the 1800s, would we have been able to pop out enough babies on our own to start settling sea to shining sea? That I do not know. We might not have had enough manpower to take over texas and the west coast from mexico, for example. However, during the Civil War, the union did do some dirty shit like import fucktons of irish just to hand them guns and send them off to war against dixie. That's kinda shitty.
Michael Harris
>My descendants came from Ireland. While watching Gangs of New York, at first I hated Bill
And this summarises the problem with Americans. You make up stories to fill the hole where your identity should be and you wind up raging against fictional characters because they somehow wronged ancestors you've never met.
Grow the fuck up.
Daniel Phillips
Yes, in fact Phillip Hart was one of the cosponsors of the 1965 immigration act, which was the culmination of ethnics lobbying to allow more of them to enter the country. Ultimately, the blame goes to the bourgeiose of colonial descent who foolishly allowed the perfidy of ethnics and jews to continue.
Elijah Collins
It isn't. Europeans in multiethnic environments have the option of imposing the metaethnic identity of whiteness (assimilation), which is what the US did after 1920 (while also effectively ending immigration in '20 and '24).
The reason the US is now a multi-culti circus is the '65 INRA and the impossibility of absorbing non-whites into the whiteness construct. We could end immigration tomorrow and it wouldn't make a dent in our racial friction.
Andrew Anderson
Only good answer.
Isaac Parker
Yes, with past immigration it was confined to a select minority of the global population and it also coincided with Western expansion.
Today, we have no more Western expansion (thanks to the federal government owning a fuck ton of the land), but we have more immigration than ever before (1/5 of the people here were not born here). As such, we get crowding in major cities (look at Los Angeles) and ethnic groups staying together in their enclaves.
With past immigrants, you had a situation wherein the ethnic groups would stick together. They were in poverty, there was gang violence and other crimes. However, gradually they found themselves entering civil service jobs (see the stereotype of the Irish NYPD cop) and eventually they were able to move out to the suburbs (Little Italy is not Italian anymore). They assimilate to the wider culture.
Could this process be done with the current immigrant population? Possibly, but that is impossible to even test out if we don't cut immigration significantly, which is what happened from 1924 to 1965. Hell, assimilation hasn't even happened with the majority of our black population, and they're more "native" than many white people in this country.
Xavier Rivera
Campared to mexicans I guess...
Jose Gray
>We could end immigration tomorrow and it wouldn't make a dent in our racial friction. That is what death and war is for. The only way to solve the problem is to forcefully get rid of one or both groups.
Robert Martin
You're not wrong. Sadly the nature of white Anglo Saxon heritage is what made the post revolutionary America what it was. It was a British revolution for British men and their descendants.
The low work ethic and indolent nature of the Irish and the meds at the time wasn't violently destabalizing but lead to an erosion of the Anglo-centric law of America.
Oddly enough H.P Lovecraft has some great letters on this.
Dylan Rivera
>My descendants came from Ireland. And Your ancestors will go back to Ireland.
Andrew Sanders
Papists - Rome was a real threat back then - and the Irish were drunks and lazy.
Jack Reed
Agreed. We do not need fucktons of immigration right now because our country is effectively "filled up" enough as it is. And we especially don't need shitskin immigration at that.
As for the issue of assimilation, I believe that in the past, different white ethnicities were able to assimilate because while there differences between germans and poles and english and irish, etc, we're all still white, and we all have much more in common than we have that's different. Totally different scenario from chinks, mestizos, muslims, niggers, etc. The blacks have been here for like 350 years, and they have never assimilated whatsoever. It just can't happen. They're biologically incompatible.
Maybe white-presenting castizos, light skinned indians/persians, lebanese, and people like that can eventually assimilate. But not in large numbers, and certainly not the vast majority of the nonwhites we have here.
Isaiah Jackson
Irish/Italian immigration irrevocably hurt America as an anglo-saxon Protestant nation and it shouldn't have been allowed to happen. In this regard the Italians were worse, they act tribalistic to this very day.
Elijah Baker
Liverpool is really that bad?
Mason Foster
yes you can.
Germans, French, Italians, Southern Anglos, Scots, and to a lesser extent, Dutch, Norwegians, Eastern Europeans, voted for Trump.
Irish, Swedes, and Northern Anglos voted for Hillary
Mormon Anglos, Danes, and Russians split
Eli Perry
US did fine with those immigrants until the 60's when you started taking in black and brown people almost exclusively. We followed suit, it hasn't worked out.
Jordan Williams
I think cities such as Detroit, Chicago and Seattle have a more (northern) European flavour distinct from the Anglo cities on the East coast.
Hypothetically, absent the Latin American/Asian migration, the USA would have drifted into a more European culture. But ultimately all these Polish and Italian descendants would have assimilated into the base culture of the USA which is meritocratic Anglo middle class. Already by the 1980s, the old distinctions among 'European ethnic' Americans were fading.
Brandon Murphy
Look at it this way. New England has a lot of Irish, and New England is democrat, Massachusetts has potatoes out the ears and they voted for shillary and Obongo drums. Irish are all progressive/liberal fags because they're trying to shove it in the Brits face. Only reason Irish do anything is out of spite for England where as real Americans just wanted freedom, but we still share most things in common with Britain, in other words we're not so petty we can't let things go and let bygones be bygones. Plus Irish are all drunk lazy faggots and I don't blame the Brits for wanting to conquer them

Joshua Fisher
letting the Potato Famine people in was a mistake. they were the first to come here for money, not freedom.
same with the Indians and East Asian immigrants. they're not nearly as destructibe as the Africans, but they're just here for the money. they don't care about freedom.
I'd say the same about the Mexicans, but thankfully many of them go home to retire after a while. but it's also a problem.
it's not that they're individually bad people (Irish, Asians, Mexicans) but basically any culture outside the Hajnal line has failed to assimilate to early American culture, except for the South Italians and maybe the Poles and a few other tiny ethnic groups from Eastern Europe.
Jonathan Fisher
Can confirm.
Carson Cooper
