Being born in Britain makes you British

>being born in Britain makes you British
>having a British passport makes you British

Honestly tell me how Europeans have been taught to accept that anyone can be European HOW?????

Yes, Brits is are not an ethnic group, unlike, say, Germans or the French. What does the word “British” mean, according to you?

It most certainly does. If you were born on the British Isles, you ARE British.
You may not be English, Welsh, or Scottish. But you are British

at school i think

>french is an ethnic group
if only

only the US has that retarded citizenship at birth system. Nothing would make me more overjoyed than seeing it put in the trash where it belongs.

>If you were born on the British Isles, you ARE British.

Then how the fuck is anyone British. What are these arbitrary rules? Shove them back up your ass.

that's what the brits think about romanian and bulgarian gypsies

It's kind of ironic now that you think about it that the only 100% Brits these days live in West Virginia and such places

>Then how the fuck is anyone British.
by being English, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, Northern Irish, etc.

it's not that difficult to understand. If you're an African or Pakistani you're never going to be considered the same as Graham Worthington who has inhabited the British Isles for 2,000 years just because a government handed you a piece of paper. I don't even necessarily think that they're all bad people but if you moved to Japan or Nigeria nobody would consider you Japanese or Nigerian there either.

>hurr quebec cant be independent because your passport is canadian

...

It literally does though. The English abandoned their ethnicity in favour of the "British" meme which is open to everyone. They thought they could trick the Scots n
and Irish into becoming "British" but it backfired

Look up Britons.

ROManian and gypsy is the same thing, so you could have typed "that's what the brits think about ROManians and bulgarian gypsies" or "that's what the brits think about ROManians and ROManians living in bulgaria"

>Britons
a small minority in Britain and half of them live in Brittany.

British isn't an ethnicity.

OK
so whats your definition of British then, eh?
I mean define it for us in clear non vague terms for legal documentation and all

Share the criteria of being british with us then.
As far as I know every person on the planet would call Joseph Conrad a British writer despite the fact that "having British passport" was the only thing tying him to Britain.

You would never be Nigerian or Japanese because they're fucking ethnic groups.
British is not an ethnic group. Same As American.

Nigerian isn't an ethnic group you retard.

bantu or what the fuck ever. My point still stands.

If you have a natural British accent you are British

exactly, any European could pass as British, lookswise

Why are Irishfags so retarded? A good percentage of Ireland considers themselves british

cringe
cringe

>nigerian is an ethnic group
can't make up stupid like this

This

>American education

The boundaries of ethnic groups are social constructs. Changes in social mindsets will shift those boundaries.

This is why national identities aren't in any way comparable to ethnic. For example
>Brits is are not an ethnic group, unlike, say, Germans
what makes Germans an ethnic group?
Their language? Well English is a Germanic language
Their looks? Native English/Scottish/Welsh/Irish people don't look so different that if you raised one in Germany from birth people would be able to tell he's anything but German
So what is it? There are obviously phenotypical traits that are GENERALLY northern or southern european but that is all. I have English friends who could probably pass for Italian and Italian friends who could certainly pass for English. I have German friends who could be English and I myself could easily be German or Scandinavian based on my looks.

All we can look at is whether someone is European, which includes Slavs and West Russia. The only place where this becomes hard to judge is Turkey/Greece

fear the kara boag you filthy sl*V

>buttblasted goblina saying British isn't an ethnic group
it's a collective name for a member of the English, Welsh, (some) Irish and Scottish ethnic groups

>i ham british

this

also why I laugh when people talk about "she looks Irish" or "looks Scottish" when genetically the British isles are practically identical

Hi guys! My name is Ahmed Muhammed Hussain Ali Fahrad! Patents moved here 20 years ago and I just happen to have a piece of paper granting me citizenship!
I'm British as any one of you with thousands of years of heritage on this island!

excellent post

British is really no less an ethnic group than the French or Germans are. Especially the French.
