I noticed that when Americans who are of different European heritage claim some connection to their country of ancestry Euros get really pissed off, but if for example most any other kind of American, for example Indian-Americans were to say "I am not Indian, I'm American" Indians would get pissed off at then for trying to deny being Indian.

Also, Euros have no problem calling an Indian or Chinese-American "Indian" or "Chinese". And they would never say something like "you are American, not Indian stop LARPing" But they do say this to Euro-Americans.

Why is this?

because white people can't stop getting into retarded purity spirals

They oscillate between thinking only white Americans are real Americans OR thinking that America is inherently multiracial, and therefore cultureless, depending on whatever more conveniently let's them shit on us in that moment.
TL;DR xenophobia

because the average white American is around 8-16 different types of European

White americans are their own European ethnicity most of the time. It's not only a genetic of phenotypic reality, an American with a german surname who doesn't speak german and have never been to Germany isn't going to be seen as a local by Germans
>inb4. muh migrants are seen as European o algo
It's largely not true, and even when it is it's part of mondialist ploy and is evil
>>
>>223443399
No. And it's not an ethnic or racial issue, which Americans also can't comprehend (they think Latinos are white), it's a cultural one. The closest Americans who obsess over muh heritage come to being European is dressing up as a caricature of a Bavarian and drinking lots of beer. Literal cargo cult behaviour.
I will say that those who actually make an effort to learn the language of their ancestors are much less obnoxious, because the time investment shows that they have some genuine interest in that culture.
As for Texas Dutch and other expat descendants whose lifestyle is still close to that of their 19th century ancestors, they are interesting to me, but mostly as a sort of living fossil. Just as the culture of Americans has evolved over the past 200 years, ours also has. To claim that they are just as German as I am would be equivalent to claiming that humans are orangutans because they share an ancestor.

Yuropussies will gladly call an ace black muslim fresh off the boat refugee a European but not a White American (which 99.7% of have 100.0% European DNA), honestly fuck you guys there's a reason we left your shithole, you're ugly and inbred and sound and dress gay
>>
>>223443792
Hey buddy... at one point German was the second most commonly spoken language in the US. Lots of ethnic Germans learned it. But for some reason... during the 20th century... learning German was no longer seen as desirable, and our schools stopped offering German language courses. German-Americans were forcefully assimilated into Anglo culture. Can you GUESS what caused this to happen Hans? What HISTORICAL EVENTS led to that? It's interesting how German-Americans can't stop catching shit from both Euros and other Americans. Those poor bastards.
>Just as the culture of Americans has evolved over the past 200 years, ours also has. To claim that they are just as German as I am would be equivalent to claiming that humans are orangutans because they share an ancestor.
No, it just means they follow an older version of German culture than you, you fucking dysgenic Nazi retard. Kill yourself.

Indians and other Browns know their culture and people (as a whole) are inferior to American (White; the world is eurocentric) culture and people (White Americans) and don't want their coethnics to "switch sides" and deprive them of the associated prestige and resources of having their most successful expatriates identify with their group. It's why Indians here and on xitter incessantly make posts about "we wuz CEO saaaar" despite living in a Mumbai slum.

On the other hand Europeans know their culture and people are superior to most others, and either disdain Americans for being "impure" Whites mixed with latinx and negros, or feel threatened by American culture (White American culture) because it eclipses their own. They're getting pissed because they either see you as a mutt or an active threat to their supposed superiority.

>>223443955
It's pure patronization and a "gift" to extend their group label to a savage Black/Muslim/refugee. Being seen as a generous savior of the savages is good because the Blacks will never ever threaten their sense of superiority. (You)r Whites however have objectively eclipsed them and threaten their self-image every time they look at the USA
>>
>>223444098
Get out of 4chan and Twitter, and you'll see most Western European think their culture is evil and that they need to pay for colonialism or the holocaust and whatnot.
We're not what you think we are, the few chuds in these small circles are non-existant in the global population
Even being proud of our ancestors or of the technician advancements is heavily frowned upon.

>What HISTORICAL EVENTS led to that?
The official story of the Holocaust, which was mostly written by the ally forces to undermine fascist nations, is the reason Europeans are now getting genocided
A mere byproduce is that you can't call youself a German even though your grandpa comes from there or something
Germans-Americans didn't assimilate because of the Germans, lock the fuck in nigga

I feel like this is a strawman. Pretty sure no one is claiming that.

And how do you feel about the Indian and Chinese thing? Would you tell a Chinese American he isn't Chinese at all?
>>
>>223444098
This actually really well reasoned. I think I get the underlying psychology now.

>they need to pay for colonialism
But not other races yes? No liberal I've ever seen has ever called for Muslims to pay up for snatching all of Eastern Rome and Nafrica. It's because liberals, like every flavor of White, see themselves as part of a superior civilization and culture and people and that their cosmic purpose is to civilize the savage brown/black hordes and that colonialism - attacking the inferior brown/black masses and plundering them instead of working to elevate them - is going against their natural role in the universe and thus "evil". The innate sense of superiority is universal among White cultures but xtian ideals of self-flagellating suffering in silence for le Jeebus good goy points cucks and perverts that self-image and transforms the natural consequence of superiority (wanting to dominate and conquer inferior people groups) into aping le Jeebus's stoic self-inflicted suffering for vague ephemeral rewards that will never materialize because they're all atheists anyways. Most goycattle don't pause to think of the absurdity of following a quintessentially Xtian moral code of seeing self-flagellation as heroic while being nihilistic atheists, but that's the current cultural trend in the West.

Americans that are even 5% black are not socially considered white. This guy was the first black coach at my school for example. He's considered black by society. White Americans are 100% European genetically.

How do you feel about Japanese Americans who dont speak Japanese and dont know the culture saying that they are Japanese?
>>
>>223448525
Not Japanese but my impression is that Japanese are somewhere in between Euros and Indians in how they see their ethnic diaspora.

On one hand not complete rejection like Euros and probably not complete inclusion like Indians

I think if a Nikkei spoke Japanese well they would basically consider them Japanese, if not they kind of don't know what to think and would rather not think about it.
>>
>>223448622
Europeans don't consider white Americans a diaspora community in the traditional sense as in migrants living abroad but as something seperate entirely largely for >>223443343
reason and therefore any special attachment to a supposed "country of origin" is seen as larp. There is however a certain feeling of "kinship" to actual diaspora communities like for example the Germans in the Ex-USSR who settled there in the 1700s and a significant portion have returned after the fall of the Iron Curtain.
>>
>>223448821
On top of that, wether it was German or Irish or whatever immigrants had it much easier to eventually fit in and assimilate with the broater white (Anglo) American culture than lets say the Japanese, that is not to say there weren't difficulties but now they aren't seen as outsiders not even by the chuddiest of chuds within the American founding stock thanks to their appearance.
>>
>>223448821
>>223448941
Basically Europeans in America assimilated to seamlessly that Europeans no longer see them as "their own".
>>
>>223449004
Pretty much plus they are not seen as having a valid reason to "reconnect with their homeland" which in non-whites is driven by a sense of not being fully accepted since subconsciously they know there will always be people who want them removed for the sake of their race, so their reconnection efforts, albeit cringe, are at least understandable on a human level.
>>
>>223444691
I can only speak for my own culture, the Chinese and Indians can fight their own battles or decide if they want to make their cultural label meaningless

nobody with an american accent is seen as an outsider now. even hasan piker, who didn't even grow up in america, isn't seen as an outsider.

>>223443201
Americans are their own thing, not a clearly defined diaspora community like with Indians or Chinese.
