the only countries u can say u are from even if u arent ethnically from there are the UK and the USAI was born and raised here, in online circles I say I’m Dutch (but add that I’m not ethnically Dutch), and then in real life, I just say I’m Pakistani when asked.
How’s Italy? I’ve got an Italian friend on here.Actually, I’ve got two.
which town?Seems very cool
And it is, even if my town is known for having one of the most damgerous neighbourhoods here, but im chillin![]()
Hmm well I wouldn’t say the UK is one of those places. Canada, USA, sure. They’re melting pots after all. So, while I agree with your overall take, it’s just that it’s easier to say I’m Dutch, because when I say I’m Pakistani, people assume I’m living there. It clears any confusion immediately when I say I’m Dutch.the only countries u can say u are from even if u arent ethnically from there are the UK and the USA

nah u can def say u are from the UK even if you are ethnically nigerian,Hmm well I wouldn’t say the UK is one of those places. Canada, USA, sure. They’re melting pots after all.

Hmm.. why is that? If it can be said about the UK, then it can be said in the Netherlands as well. In fact, if you ask any left-wing or even the government themselves, they will tell you that I’m Dutch. They see the Netherlands as a multi-ethnic society, rather than just reserving that term for the ethnically Dutch. That said, we do have terms that differentiate natives from non-natives. We have “allochtonen,” which refers to people whose parents or at least one parent was born elsewhere, and we have “autotochtonen,” which refers to people whose parents were born in the Netherlands. Technically speaking, though, even non-whites would be considered “autochtoon” if a person’s parents were born in the country despite not being ethnically Dutch. Ah, and we also have “niet-westerse allochtonen,” which means “non-western allochtonen.” Yes, you can call yourself American because it’s a melting pot, and you have the luxury of being white(-passing), so no one’s going to question you. Although I am aware of the subsection of the American population who believe only white Americans can be American, but that is flawed logic since they are relatively recent migrants if you compare them to Native Americans.nah u can def say u are from the UK even if you are ethnically nigerian,
Maybe only London i guess
I just say im american, even though its the country I have lived for the shortest period of my life although im ethnically ukranian and spent my childhood there until moving 7 years ago![]()

Hm. I never registered the UK as a melting pot, but I guess things change overtime. That’s probably where NL is heading. I mean, in some cities they speak English as the first language since people barely speak Dutch. Kinda crazy.the UK is also a melting point, maybe not as much as the USA but it still is one.
Infact according to this the 40% of the residents of the UK were born abroad
But wow, it is really interesting how in the Netherlands you have such terms![]()
Woah what?Hm. I never registered the UK as a melting pot, but I guess things change overtime. That’s probably where NL is heading. I mean, in some cities they speak English as the first language since people barely speak Dutch. Kinda crazy.
English is a world language. I’m glad it is, because I speak it quite well, would’ve hated it if it was French or something.Woah what?
British culture still colonizing the world even as a husk of its formerself
P.s. I never knew staff on here was actually nice to talk to. Isnt it your 7 year org aniversary in 5 days?
Yeah, english is a great language is it has bits of all european languagesEnglish is a world language. I’m glad it is, because I speak it quite well, would’ve hated it if it was French or something.
Haha thanks, I’m a reflection of yourself. If you’re nice to me, I’m nice to you. Some people are just dickheads so I return the favor then.![]()
Hmm. Yeah it is.Yeah, english is a great language is it has bits of all european languages
BTW I swear I heard you got a job/ were going to uni or something or am I crazy
Why did you quit the job?Hmm. Yeah it is.
Uh, you heard right. I did have a job, but I quit. I was working as a salesperson at a furniture store.
I’m also back in university, yes.
What do you do in life?
I quit the job because of my sleeping problems, but also because I had more tasks than I expected; I mean, my shifts were doable, but I was also expected to learn about furnitures and whatnot, and I’m kind of forgetful, prone to making mistakes. So I thought it was better to quit. Hmm I’d have said it publicly, but I have some concerns for privacy. Grade school, what’s that, like.. is it high school? Nice, enjoy your stay in the US!Why did you quit the job?It is nice that you are in university though, what degree are you studying for though?
im still in grade school right nowbut im on holiday in the US visiting my older brother
