Josiah Bennett
I couldn't even distinguish between west coast and east coast cities or countryside
On the other hand just driving an hour from Estonia to Russia the differences are enormous
You've never travelled if you think the US even compares to europe in terms of culture. Unlike many think, there actually is a culture in the US, centered around capital and freedom to consume, and it has slight variations of it around it there, but c'mon. You can't compare differences of Texas/California to France/Greece
Caleb Ross
You're absolutely right. This is also why France worked so hard to destroy all minority language: a democracy demands a demos. When the kings were around, only 10% of France actually speaking French was no problem, because that 10% were the only people worth talking to from the government's perspective. With the Republics and later the Empires (which were basically republics with a slightly royalist bend) a French identity was neccessary.
Same for Italy. When Italy unified, only less than 5% spoke standard Italian. The rest spoke regional Italian dialects, and prominent/high ranking Italians spoke French to eachother. It was said that once Italy was created, it was time to create Italians.
Either the EU will manage to create Europeans, or it will collapse. And I'm seeing no real effort in creating a European identity. Perhaps with the Brexit almost being a certainity (today Cameron confirmed that Britain WILL be leaving the EU) and some MEPs expressing the EU might be moving away from English, French and German might be pushed as THE European languages, and their cultures exported. But then again, perhaps I'm being too optimistic. The entire EU is founded on the idea that all languages, countries, cultures, religions and customs are equally valid. French is put on the same footing as some throatsinging dialect only found in the most isolated woods of Lithuania.
All European countries are effectively the same. We have so many things in common, like all those times we tried to exterminate eachother due to irreconcilable religious, political and cultural differences.
Logan Campbell
>European Union fails because there are too big differences in the cultures of the respective countries inside it and none of them are planning to sacrifice their cultures for the greater good
No. The UK voted to leave not because they felt their culture was being threatened or destroyed by europeans, but because they felt their money was being wasted on others and their independence was threatened.
When was the last time you felt like you couldn't do anything Finnish because I was listening to fado?
Easton Moore

I'd still rather choose my own destiny with other like-minded people rather than let some cunt in Brussels do it for me. What hope would a German-born, German raised, German speaking, attuned in German law and school system and customs have about the problems in Finland? And what comes to a unified army, I'm kind of hesitant about the idea to die for a gypsy or a refugee.

I didn't say we are the same. I just said that the differences aren't big enough to make a union impossible. The current European Union isn't the union that we want, tho. I agree with that. We must unite, but without stepping on each other.
The EU must fall, but only to become something better. I am a Catalan. I know a few things about being in a state (Spain) that I don't feel completely part of. youtube.com/watch?v=a1Ozxr3EMD4

>I'd still rather choose my own destiny with other like-minded people rather than let some cunt in Brussels do it for me. Which is why a Nordic Union might have a fighting chance of existing (even though it would still have only a third of France's total population). They're likeminded peoples with a shared history (Kalmar Union, Denmark-Norway, Finland was part of Sweden for centuries and still has Swedish as an official language), shared culture, shared language sort of (with the exception of Finnish, all Scandinavian languages are mutually intelligible) and shared values (all of them are Protestant, and of branches that share quite a bit of doctrine). Uniting them makes sense.
Putting them in the same union as fucking Greece, on the other hand, makes zero sense. You'd have to stretch the definition of culture so far out to justify such a union that it loses all meaning.
>I didn't say we are the same. I just said that the differences aren't big enough to make a union impossible. >I am a Catalan. I know a few things about being in a state (Spain) that I don't feel completely part of. If you don't even feel part of Spain, what makes you think you can identify with the fucking Estonians? Your own country barely even works as a nation-state. For fucks sake, because of this your country barely has a unified legal code, regional legislation reigns supreme.
Carson Campbell
I unironically believe that nationalism was invented by the elites to keep poor people busy fighting each other, instead of working for a more equal society. Note that the poorer a country, the more overly nationalistic its inhabitants are.
Carson Sanchez
nah, I just like using hyperboles to point the retardation in various things
I can't identify with them, but I could live with Spaniards if they fixed their country. And the same I can say about the EU. I want to add that the EU cannot expand to the infinite and more. Anything beyond Germany and the Nordic countries is hardly European. (There needs to be a "base of trust"). Eastern Europe is not developed enough.
I think we agree in the essential. You are just more radical about the solution.
Ryder Morris
then again without nationalism Finland for example would be either a neglected backwater farming area inhabited by second-rate Swedes for Sweden or a Russian shithole
Isaiah Garcia

Blake Kelly
>I can't identify with them, but I could live with Spaniards if they fixed their country And that is why Spain can never be a functioning country. A democracy does not work if there's no Demos. You might as well become an absolute monarchy once more at that point, if you value keeping the country together so much.
>I think we agree in the essential. You are just more radical about the solution. I guess so. That's also why I think most expansions of the EU were a mistake. Original six + Iberia is as far as I'm willing to go, and that's me being generous.
Jacob Carter
nationalism during a war or foreign occupation is understandable, what I'm talking about is for example what happens between Eritrea and Ethiopia. They're basically the same people, and yet they've fought 30 years for petty reasons, leading both countries to famine and poverty.
Carson Russell
Not really. There's a lot of poor fellas in Africa who really don't even care who is rulling them as long as they don't come around to kill them and rape them. Most of the Arab world consider themselves Arabs and Muslims first and whatever country they were born in second.
Nationalism is a thing because individuals are quicker to understand the "we vs them" than the "my lord vs some pesants of other lord" Nationalism wasn't "invented". It was always there.
Nolan Thomas
>too big differences in the cultures >between EU member states >between Soviet states You're retarded.
Xavier Kelly
Yes, death to culture.
Jonathan Bennett
nationalism in Africa is related more to ethnic tensions, they had pogroms and ethnic cleansings most of their history and things stacked up in the collective memory of the tribes. Add in colonial powers niggering up the border drawing and we had modern day Africa with its constant conflict
and I'd probably still be nationalistic about Finland, it is a good country and why should I not feel proud of a country I'm helping to keep going?
Joshua Scott
In some places nationalism works and in some places it doesn't
Successful example: Nordic and Baltic areas Impossible examples: Balkans and Papua New Guinea
Areas without a dominating population are prone to having disastrous consequences to nationalism
Oliver White
this, nationalism is just an evolved form of tribalism extended over larger distances

As Bob Marley once sang,

Joshua Adams
Nationalism is extremely recent, mostly related to the French Revolution. The average peasant does not understand "my lord vs some peasants of other lord" because he didn't need to. The Ancien Regime had lords lording, and wars were fought by professionals who had made war their business and were commanded by nobles who owed fealty to their leage in exchange for privileges. It was the French Revolution, the abolition of the nobility and the rise of conscript armies that introduced the need for nationalism.
Before that, the relation between peasant and lord was more or less "that guy I pay taxes to so foreigners don't burn my farm".
Jaxson Torres
>Successful example: Nordic and Baltic areas have money, backed by US >Impossible examples: Balkans and Papua New Guinea don't have money, US wanted war to happen
yeah, must be a cultural thing
David Wood
Nationalism makes people blind to their country's faults, even leading to justify war crimes. If you can't see what's wrong, you can't improve. In Europe we don't have the real nationalism, being proud of your own country doesn't count as that.
William Myers
>Croatia Well, if Yugoslavia had too big differences in the cultures to beheld together, how could EU stay together?

Hunter Ortiz

Gabriel Harris
>Which is why a Nordic Union might have a fighting chance of existing
Yes and it'd be closer to home so to say. The decision making would feel more important when you don't see the "capital" as being somewhere far off and removed and all your representatives doing shady work who no one really explained to you (I've researched EU so I do know, sure, but talking from a view point of an ordinary Finn for example).
That's why EU parliament voting turnout is so shit, everything is so far removed from the perceived normal functioning of a country and every day concerns that it becomes this big bad overshadowing precence that eats up your sovereignity and which is also led by evil bureaucratic faceless technocratic communist neoclassical cunts.
Liam Campbell
no, fat nazis wannabe don't count
Luke Cooper
I believe that people have more than one culture and more than one identity. EU must simply add another layer to who Europeans feel they are. it's already happening and Brexit will help very much because it gives EU a clear 'enemy', a entity which we will for a lengthy period of time be at odds with. There is a reason EU is popular with young people, the new identity is already under way.
Alexander Baker
>The United States of America are successful because they succceeded in completely destroying the indigenous cultures and peoples They did destroy the indigenous people, but then we had to import new cultures.
The US isn't one monoculture. People think just because we all speak English we're all the same. We're not. Different regions have completely different, and opposing, values, culture, and ethnic makeup. We succeed because we put this aside and work together to get the job done, which Europe will never do. In America it doesn't matter if you're a liberal Sicilian New Yorker, a poor black Michiganer, a progressive from California, or an Anglo-Russian mountainman from Alaska, we tease each other over accents and food but buckle down and run the world together, make all the media for the entire world, have a military presence all over the world, save your asses form the Nazis etc. That's why we run the world, because you're too busy in-fighting.
In America, regardless of location, culture, or ethnicity we still see ourselves as American. In Europe, a Catalan says he isn't Spanish, A Scot says he isn't British, and a Flemish says he isn't Belgian You're more concerned with exclusion and the US is about inclusion.

Cultural differences between Poland and Mongolia are not why USSR fell apart.
And saying that there are big cultural differences between Croats and Serbs is also retarded. Croats and Serbs are culturally closer than different parts of USA are to each other.
You're trying to simplify different complex political and economic situations into some "MUH CULTURE" meme.
Christian Myers

Levi Wright
Go find a basic definition of nationalism and read it at least sixty times.
Julian Flores
>he confuses nationalism and national identity
Ryder Russell
No. Nationalism was always there. It was just given a name later because before that most allegiances were to a lord, not a country or people. But people have always been close to those who are same or similar. It's tribalism and natural. And the reason why foreign lords always had more trouble rulling over other people even if they were the legitimate ruler.
Niggers in Africa didn't need the French to "invent" nationalism to start ethnically cleansing others.
Michael Ramirez
no, you certainly can be a nationalist but not want to purge undesireables or enemies of the nation
Adam Sullivan
>most expansions of the EU were a mistake. Original six + Iberia is as far as I'm willing to go, and that's me being generous.
Yep... And thanks for including us
Aaron Moore
then tell me why the so called nationalist parties are always strongly against immigration
Connor Lee
That "nationalism" wasn't as much identifying with a nation as much as it was with a direct community. Even within a region ruled by the same lord, people from village A identified with eachother and saw people from village B as outsiders. Identifying with a city or region was much more common, and that makes sense. It's something you simply cannot avoid due to humans being social creatures.
Same with tribes: they're a direct in-group you mostly know by name.
Jace Lopez
>Nordic and Baltic areas >have money, backed by US Holy shit what Finland, Norway and Iceland were third world countries some 80 years ago, the baltics are still not very rich even though they are doing well already after soviet occupation The baltics, Denmark and Norway are backed by the US. Finland and Sweden are not
>Impossible examples: Balkans and Papua New Guinea >don't have money, US wanted war to happen Please tell me about the Papua New Guinean war that the US wanted to happen. Also balkan history is quite bloody without US intervention already. Balkan nationalism caused the first world war, which directly led to the second world war which I don't think was operated from the US in real history
Juan Cooper
>Original six + Iberia is as far as I'm willing to go, and that's me being generous. I agree, but I would have included Nordic Council in the union too but so that Nordics were represented by the Council, in effect two different economic areas but different unions so that no one feels left out.
Because contrary to popular belief it doesn't make one a racist to oppose immigration. Purging undesireables = limiting immigration. Nationalist parties often feel, and the people supporting them, that immigrants erode the national values and culture. For example, a Somali here has a completely different mindset of how a country should be organized and what is permitted behaviour.
Dominic Edwards
How are, for example, ancient Jews, not a nation?
They had their own religion, a land they claimed, they claimed common origin, a common identity, etc. They had all the elements of a nation.
You had nationalistic elements in the late Byzantine Empire, you had them in medieval Scotland, you had them in medieval Croatia. History wasn't just dumb peasants and anational feudalism as much as leftist historian like to go on about that.
Carson Edwards
>Purging undesireables = limiting immigration
I of course meant Purging undesireables =/= limiting immigration :DDDDD
Jack Ross
Yeah, the destruction of bosniaks was clearly just a complex politically and economically motivated act that had nothing to do with national identity, culture or ethnicity. Why would I even think like that, silly me!

Evan Johnson
>it doesn't make one a racist to oppose immigration it does if you do it on cultural grounds. If you think that a somali is less capable than a northern european to live in an advanced society, you may be a little racist.

Can't blame USSR for not trying though. They were active in the prestigious field of gulags and Russian-born population relocation to areas emptied from its original population.
Dylan Stewart
>the breakup of Yugoslavia was not politically and economically complex ayy lmao
Croats and Bosniaks were also at war until they joined forces and now live together. There were around 18,000 ethnic Serbs in the Croatian army, by the way. So much about simplying the Yugo wars into "MUH GENOCIDE".

Nationalism implies a nation. Nations imply a shared consciousness of belonging to an ethnic group. Villages don't consitute the basis for ethic groups.

I only explained why people might feel limiting immigration is good. I didn't imply Somalis are unable to adjust to a modern society but I do believe that any immigrant from any third world put in a foreign country full of foreign people who speak foreign language and who have a vastly different mindset will face hardships.

Nice reading comprehension, Joan Fernández. I implied that Spain SHOULD NOT be in a union of countries that consider her trash and have done nothing but try to kill her. >ust like most self-hating moor-lovers do.

Yeah, fuck culture and genocides, who needs facts when we have our great "complex economics" Croat?

For further information, I'd suggest reading "The Balkans: Nationalism, War and the Great Powers, 1804-1999" and "The Serbs: History , Myth and the Destruction of Yugoslavia" but for starters you could take some vague background information from wikipedia

Wake the fuck up, you european cuckold: they hate you, they despise you, they see you as a leech, they hope you die, they DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU. Yet here you are, trying to defend you "europeanes". You are a true cuckold of both Castilla and Europa, doing as we say when we say.

You're wrong because America forged a culture of its own. It did not destroy the cultures, it assimilated them.
Therefore assimilation is the path to economical success.

You are just a blind little cuck that believed the lies of the "European Spain" disregarding that there's no such a thing and has never been. You of all people should be the ones AGAINST a union with France, the country that literally claims you are theirs just to kill and impose the Paris way. But no, you have forgotten your own history, like a an obedient little cuckold. I truly hope Spain break for Castilla to be alone once again and to see you get overrun by the government of France. How does it feel knowing that Europeans laugh at you for thinking you are European? How does it feel to know they see you as a subhuman creature that deserves no respect?

Robert Myers
You are confusing religious fanaticism with nationalism. The Jews are not only connected by ethnicity, but by religion too. You are not a Jew if you are not a follower of the Jewish religion. Jewish identity has always been tied to their religion, it just so happens that Jews are the only ones who follow the Jewish religion.
Benjamin Young
>The United States of America are successful because they succceeded in completely destroying the indigenous cultures and peoples they didn't destroyed their entire culture, but destroyed the parts that fought against the american culture integrating the rest. And since American Culture is revolved around individualism, capitalism and personal freedom anyone can be integrated. The same for Brazil but at another angle, our culture is revolved around integration, socialism and collectively enjoying life, and that way anyone can be Brazilian and share our culture. It isn't about destroying cultures, but removing the parts that struggle with yours. That's how you integrate immigrants into your culture. What the EU is trying to do literally destroy every European culture and putting the American one on top of all European national cultures. And since European countries cultures got too many struggle points with the Individualism and personal freedom culture of the USA they are refusing to accept this
Christian Roberts
I can't prove you wrong because I agree.
Not that it is desirable, but it is necessary unless you feel happier and more glorious being a little client state of USA/China/Russia.
It's no big deal, anyway. Our common yuropean culture already is reduced to using an american image board for shitposting in the american language from our american apple device or american microsoft software-using computer while driving to the cinema to watch the latest american movie with the assistance of american GPS while listening to american music and thinking of taking a mcburger for dinner and then go back home to ponder on all the memes and cliches of american cultural production we've already assimilated as you pass by an 'ethnic' person, a 'hipster' or a 'liberal'.
Lincoln Miller
>poopy poop You made no actual argument in this whole thread.
No, I'm not.
>You are not a Jew if you are not a follower of the Jewish religion Yes, you are. There are atheist Jews nowadays and there are Biblical Jews who followed pagan Gods instead of YHWH. Religion played a big role to the Jewish identity, but Jews, even ancient ones, were a nation. The whole concept of Judaism revolved around creating a righteous nation/people of God. They even had the concept of a nation state.
Also, converting to Judaism implies that you're joining the Jewish people and are abandoning your previous national attachments.
