What? How the fuck...?
A white nationalist, who is for gun control, and voted for Clinton.

This is the most confusing thing I have heard today... no, the past 7 days, at least.

We all make mistakes right? I obviously know how lame of a candidate Hillary Clinton is now and won't vote for her again. How is Donald Trump any better? I don't understand how some people can think he is "all that" when he's a faux populist. Yeah, such a badge of honor to have been "conned" or "bamboozled" into supporting someone who is now doing much of the opposite of what he claimed he wanted to do; because it should be obvious that he lied the whole time and never intended to. I at least knew he was full of shit or would have policies that suck. I have good reason to believe that he is a one term-er.

The level of gun control I want is quite reasonable, more in bringing the US to par with either Canada or Switzerland. Both of those nations have a lot of gun ownership to my knowledge, but have way less gun violence. Maybe just bringing the US more in line with the rest of the developed world and not being content with it being such an extreme outlier as to be worse than Yemen on this.

It's just unusual for a nationalist of your flavour to be in favour of either at any point in time. I actually agree with you on guns and Trump, it's just not what one would expect.

Fair enough. I like Vianney too.

It's also 'just' a language if you don't speak it. You can get by your entire life in may ethnic communities without knowledge of the language. Doesn't make a difference that it's a sign of a lack of integration.

About 150 years is a time in which like yoghurt a country creates its own culture. Israel and Belgium, still relatively new, don't really have a culture.

The US clearly had its own culture 150 years afters its creation in the first few decades of the 20th century. See Sam, Columbia, general differences in nuances and behaviour between Americans and the rest of the world.

So anything that is long enough to foster a culture but not long enough to ignore cultural changes.
