Being ethnic

>being ethnic

What the h*ck does this mean in the first place?

you could say "i am an ethnic fin" as you are from Finland for example
>it basically means you are part of that race

No.

Being just "ethnic" is a thing in the Anglo world.

it's not "being ethnic", it's "being ethnic [nationality]"

In American terms it used to mean non Germanic but also non Anglo-Saxon, depending on the social class of the speaker, I guess.

not WASP = ethnic

back in the day they messed with immigration quotas to admit more and more Scandis and Dutchmen because they found them to be """Nordic"'"" (despite Ben Franklin calling Swedes exceptionally swarthy)

read The Great Gatsby, Tom is one of the numerous armchair geneticians who were in charge of inventing the notion of being "ethnic"

>despite Ben Franklin calling Swedes exceptionally swarthy
wtf

anecdotal evidence proly

preconceptions change with time

notice that we still consider Swedes to be tall blondes but our children will think that Swedes are brown goatfuckers

"ethnic" is just a dog whistle that means non-white.

Exactly

I think of Poles as subhuman but my children will think of Poles as Russian, hopefully.

pls staph nau

ya as if there will be another generation of Dutchmen

you will grow even taller and passing planes will cut your heads off

>get increased height to prevent drowning
>get decapitated by plane
truly a two-headed sword

nah

Russian or Hungarian cuisine is considered ethnic in the US and yet the nationalities that prepare it are always considered white.

>slavs
>white

It's almost as vague as using the term "exotic"

it means you're not white and so a special snowflake

disregard the fact that they're all am*rican mutts so they actually don't even have a proper ethnicity
(that's probably why they're so butthurt about ethnicity in the first place)

No, it is a thing, Being just ethnic is anything that's not mainstream white culture

american newspeak for not white
