    No, it's done the exact opposite, and one of the way America is being attacked is by people attacking the melting pot idea. Meanwhile, an attempt to begin forging a white identity in America will just tear her apart even further. Just look at who wants white identity to exist: White...

    Two reasons. First, until recently there were two melting pots: One was the normal one we think of about America (consensual and gradual, including almost all races), the other was just for Africans, and was done by force and quickly through the Trans-atlantic Slave Trade + Suppression of ethnic...

    If you go by the founders, we are an British country. And it might be a majority, but nowhere near close enough to be an overwhelming majority like european countries. For example, Germany is 78% German ethnicity, and in total, 90% of the population is German. France is 85% European. Poland is...

    Yes, but the subculture of 'New England White People' definitely exists, and that is linked to race. It's just that cultures aren't defined by race alone. There is no unifying 'white culture', there are many mostly white cultures. This I very much disagree with. It quite simply isn't one. You...

    Sure, but saying that skin color isn't heavily linked to culture now is just wrong.

    The melting pot for African Americans has not been colorblind until the latest generation. They were places they purposefully excluded from it based on their race until the 70s/80s, with Loving v Virginia and the end of redlining finally bringing them in. But it hasn't melted in yet. For the...

    I mean, do you have facts to argue with instead of just saying 'systemic discrimination'? A part of any definition of culture should probably include: If C is a culture then, for every combination of subcultures X, Y, and Z, where X, Y are in C and Z is not in C, X is culturally closer to Y...

    I had taken this as a disagreement with my statement: Guess I understood wrong! Glad to have cleared that up. Regardless of how you think you express it, people can kinda sense it regardless of how you feel you act, sorta like a reverse gaydar (which is definitely a thing). Like, I've picked...

    I disagree. There are a lot of things people with money want others to believe that don't get nearly as much cultural acceptance (look at abortion, for example. Thankfully, it hasn't had nearly as much success as LGBT rights.). The challenges that LGBT equality had to meet are a) being noticed...

    You say this, but then you also say things like this: A little more, and I think you might have a career here! It's a good thing, too, as you certainly don't have a career in history with your weak grasp on it. Quite simply, the biggest block in the way of gay rights was being ignored by the...

    Oh, there really was a fast forwarding. The rate of change on gay acceptance and gay marriage was truly astonishing. So I think it's fair to say (and I can back this up with plenty of evidence) that in exchange for the almighty pink dollar, businesses targeted gays to sell us stuff, which pushed...

    Noooo!!!! Anything but that, how will I survive! Yeah, because we won. Now we have moved onto the next level, commercializing. That's what all oppressed minorities should aim for: equal rights, followed by aggressive capitalism. Alternatively, there is a fair argument to be made that...
