This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Lmao, like strong nationalism isn't being used to drive division
Our identities is more important than power.
Sure we need some power to protect them but it's pointless to gain power by throwing them away.
I wouldn’t have that expectation if I were you. Based on how both our comments got downvoted I suspect the beautiful Lemmings on here still live with a “no! I don’t accept, we’re better than this”
Yet once you go to those (especially orange) areas and you see how flamingly openly full racist and white nationalist those people have become in the last 10 20 years, it becomes harder to think of a culturally aligned Europe.
People forget this post WWII near 90 year on continuous peace time was extraordinarily exceptional and not how Europe typically fares through a century.
Yes the non racist viewpoint is that minorities should be ~~assimilated~~ aligned to a European culturr.
Where European means something Germanic with perhaps a splash of French. That will show white nationalism.
