The problem is, "culture" is an inherently shifting and malleable thing. Culture changes, even with the same group, over time. Culture changes inevitably as ideas are borrowed, mixed, synthesized, etc.

What even is "white" culture? East coast Anglo-Saxon descendents? Italians? Irish? Fair-skinned Mexican people descended from Spaniards?

There are some really good videos on that question by Eric Aarvoll on YouTube if you are interested. He dates white people back 10s of thousands of years

Not going to watch some 2 hour YouTubes.

Yes, if we're just defining "white" as "people with low melanin", yes they've been around 10's of thousands of years.

But I have far more in common with (say) an Asian immigrant who grew up in California and speaks English than some Russian oilfield operator in Siberia... even if we're both "white".

Fair enough

this is a dangerously stupid argument. there are people who will say "what even is culture, italians and irish are so different already, we can just flood your little town with 30,000 haitians in the space of three years." and then it is done.

I am not accusing you of using the argument like that. but we both know what's going on, and there are reasonable individuals who look at it and say "these idiots are trying to kill me. I might as well become a nazi." and that's what happens to them.

30,000 Haitian immigrants doesn't do anything on its own to prevent you from living your own life or practice your own culture.

I'm all for migration to be natural and market-driven, and I think part of the issue with some of these huge pockets of immigration is that State authorities are putting a finger on the map and saying "you go here"...

But at the same time, as many in this thread have declared to be a "good thing", 1st generation immigrant cultures tend to want to self-associate, so it's not surprising that this happens.

"White genocide" is the dumbest idea every. European colonists and later Americans 99% of the Native American population over the course of 200 years... Nothing like that is happening to "white" people.

I should say "decimated 99%..."

This is an extreme exaggeration based on overestimates of of the pre-colonisation population.

In any case what is a Native American? Seminoles and Comanches are different people with different cultures so it doesn't matter if millions of White people colonise their land. By your logic, that wouldn't affect how they live their lives or practice their culture... Right?

>30,000 Haitian immigrants doesn't do anything on its own to prevent you from living your own life or practice your own culture

this is incorrect, but since you haven't figured it out already, I hope at least you won't find out the hard way.

Exactly
