One day Americans will learn culture doesn't run in your veins, and the people in general will understand that DNA inherently spreads through and across populations over time.

Given how long Scotland has been inhabited, it's quite substantially likely that every person on Earth has DNA from native Scots. So there you go, everyone on Earth is now "authentically Scottish".

There are a lot of factors, but after about 10,000 years, you are likely either an ancestor of all humans alive, or none.

The whole “I’m 22% Scottish and 45% Italian” types of American make more sense the more I learn about the history of eugenics and its popularity in the US.

I remember speaking to an American sociologist, and they told me that there's a really interesting line of literature exploring the somewhat uniquely American fixation with "heritage", and its origin in settler colonialism.

the yes true Scotsman fallacy

"I'm not Scottish" "YEAH YOU ARE"

I remember watching two Americans try to eat a Scottish breakfast in Edinburgh. Stupid fucks just pushed the food around their plate and looked bemused. One of them put a tiny amount of brown sauce on their fork and touched it to the tip of their tongue to taste it before making a gagging sound as though they'd been made to taste raw sewage. I honestly wanted to hit them in the head with a brick

As a local of Edinburgh, nothing more infuriating then the American tourists during the fringe and winter. Many are sound as hell but some Americans are just misery to be around. Can't imagine visiting that cursed nation

I had to look up what a Scottish breakfast is but now I'm confused ass to why an american wouldn't readily shovel that down their gullet, like I could see not being into the black pudding, but everything else sounds delicious.

scottish breakfast is when no burger

"Hope this helps in the future when you try to gatekeep culture"

He says, as he gatekeeps culture. Fascinating specimen.

People will say this and them complain that there arent good tacos in Scotland and “no spicy food”.

Try growing black pepper, cilantro or nutmeg in the cold soggy stony highlands.

Americans have no culture, so they must steal it from people distantly related to them.

Hahaha, I'm booming right now, and can't figure it out. Tried a couple of combos.

I left that up there so you guys can point out what's off. 😞 I wish we had those emojis on our list in the Grad.

yeonmi-park on communist hexbear, the link to yeonmi's image will get overridden if you replace the "emoji yoenmi-park" text with "emoji bugs-stalin" for instance

It's like a Yeonmi matryoshka doll that says harsher truths as she gets smaller.

Hahaha, we did it, that was it. Thanks a lot, Wheaties. I'll have to familiarize myself with the rest of the emojis.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

good luck there's a fuck ton of them and I can never remember the name a given one is filed under

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Pretty sure the image macros are a hexbear feature

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

nah, we switched from the old :word-here: format to ![ ] () specifically becase other instances can see and use 'em.
