What’s hilarious to me is these people think they’re purebloods somehow. I guarantee pretty much every one of them if they really look back at the family tree would find someone who is NOT WHITE as they define it.

My mother’s family is German, Dad is Irish. Texas German settlers 5 generations back. Proud of their heritage.

One of the grizzled old WWII veterans decided to trace our ancestry diligently and methodically through Europe. Took us back to the 17th century. Was very cool.

I was there when he stood up at a family reunion of over 300 of us and informed us that one of our ancestors was a Russian Jew…that’s where our family name comes from, it’s an Americanization. And there’s an American Indian or two that married into the family when we first immigrated. And oh, by the way, being from Alsace, we’re really more French than German. Whoopsie. Have some strudel.

When he sat down there was absolute silence in the room. It was glorious.

These people are not what they think they are.
