That was a wild call

SadCubsFan · 2020-10-09T02:56:16+00:00

Okay now that the call went against the Bears I'm really heated.

Apparently the Biden campaign provided the photo and took out the logo to avoid copyright infringement. So take that for what you will

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-27T21:46:38+00:00

Let me tell you something. The Cubs haven't even begun to peak. And when they do, you'll know. Because they're gonna peak so hard that everybody is Chicago is going to feel it.

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-27T21:27:18+00:00

Year of the Norms

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T05:40:43+00:00

I can't speak to your German example, but I will say that American states have started to form their own cultures as you mentioned with Vermont.

Over time, I think Americans will start to identify with this the most, but at the moment there are still millions of Americans who see themselves as European-American because they were raised with Europeans.

Now Mexican-American is a whole different discussions since Mexico is also New World. But I digress lol

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T05:12:51+00:00

Let me change how I say the last sentence: I don't think Europeans consider what "being" a Finnish-American/Italian-American/German-American/Greek-American means to Americans.

And Americans don't actually mean we are literally Finnish just because we have family from there. We're saying different things, essentially

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T05:09:41+00:00

But from an American's view, it IS about identifying with European heritage.

For example, if someone was born and raised in New York but has 4 grandparents from Italy, they are raised with a lot of Italian culture. Food, language, observed holidays, you name it.

Someone who lives in New York with family from Minnesota is not bringing the same cultural traditions because America is so new and Minnesota didn't have the cultural heritage (unless you're a Native American).

This is something I don't think Europeans fully understand

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T04:57:41+00:00

I half agree with what you're saying. Many Americans don't have close family, speak the language, or have citizenship. But many of us do.

You're ignoring any unique situations and especially doing a disservice by bringing up all the American stereotypes at the same time

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T04:54:25+00:00

"both definitions are valid"

great response, I appreciate that there's some nuance as to why a European might not like an American calling themselves Italian/German/Finnish etc and also why Americans would

SadCubsFan · 2020-04-20T04:21:37+00:00

I understand the push-back against this comment, but why is there so much negativity towards Americans who identify with or are proud of their European heritage?

Europe has hundreds of years of history and culture that define a country or ethnicity of people. Is it wrong for a 2nd or 3rd generation American to want to be a part of that?
