@hbdchick Sometimes media wants to obfuscate by eliding such..but here it CLARIFIES someone exposed to Western hospitality still seeks ISIS
@Billare well, isn't it *useful* to have *words* to describe ethnic groups?! up until *very* recently (feels like yesterday)...

@hbdchick Well sure it's useful. But ur problem isn't just with Euro countries then. Plenty of Brit nationals considered themselves "Kenyan" -
@hbdchick Like our man Dawkins. People really do adopt cultural identities separate from their actual ethnogenesis. -
@Billare ...meant they were ethnically belgian. now ethnic belgians have *lost* their designation. how should i refer to them? -
@hbdchick I am a loss. But is Belgium even a natural division? Aren't there controversies over the Flemish vs. some other group? -
@Billare yes. subgroups. not a problem. just because there are punjabis and karnatakans doesn't mean they're not all indians. -
@hbdchick You aware of the pop-gen results that Continental Euros were basically always admixing so there is not that much stratification -
@Billare and you know that they can practically pinpoint what village people's grandparents came from in europe via genetics. =/ -
@hbdchick I agree. I don't believe those things are contradictory, w/ enough migrants b/w endogamous social units. Lots of movement ofc - 1 more reply
