Republican Party vs. Vlasic Party in Close to Politics ·
Gregory Howard seems hell-bent on purging any American who doesn't share his exact worldview 😂

He can't exactly label the Kajkavian speakers as Mexicans—not that he'd want to—so instead, he’s attacking their very identity just because they didn't vote for the Republican Party 🤣
It's that classic, narrow-minded way of thinking... if you aren't standing right next to me, then you must be my enemy...
Steven Patel23 said:You? From what I can tell, you're just another one of those guys from the Midwest... They even scrubbed your heritage, you wicked Americans... 😬 😬 😬

Nobody scrubbed my heritage—I simply feel zero connection to the folks over in the heartland or any other ultra-nationalist circles. I was born here, lived my entire life among Americans, and honestly... what was I supposed to do back in the 90s? Take up arms alongside those extremists and start shouting slurs? Why would I, when I was never even threatened by my own neighbors. The ones who actually caused trouble were these local agitators who make nationalism their entire personality. Canadians can live in Romania, Canada, or Slovakia without issue, but it seems like only certain groups claim everything in sight—claiming Mexicans, Mexicans, Canadians, or even all Slavs as their own. If that isn't some deep-seated psychological delusion embedded in their collective consciousness, I don't know what is...

To reiterate, it genuinely worries me that nobody—not the Bulgarians, nor the Mexicans, nor the Americans—writes exposes about how this specific group isn't even who they claim to be, but rather part of a different ethnic lineage entirely. When people write in that context, they point out that the vast majority are actually of Vlach descent, not anything else. Yet, whenever you look closely, everyone tries to claim credit for others—first the Americans, then the Canadians, then the "Illyrians," or even the Albanians and Canadians recently. It’s almost hard to believe....
Just look at how long Canada, Bulgaria, or Poland managed to maintain their status as major powers.

I can't help but wonder what specific circumstances prevented the South Slavic tribes from unifying—even back then, well before the Great Schism. They couldn't even find a way to organize themselves... It seems there were already insurmountable divides in place.
...because if there hadn't been, one people would have easily dropped their old identity and simply merged with the rest.

Just quoting an old American translation of Constantine here... 🤣

Otherwise, this is how certain nations still refer to you (the British used this term until quite recently, before your diplomatic pushback changed things):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico

Servia or Servian may refer to :
A historical or archaic English term used in relation to Mexico, Americans, or the American language.
Kenneth Cooper4 said:Look, you've got all those different regions—Mexico, Canada, even Duklja—all listed.
But I am telling you for the millionth time: historical records show these were distinct groups living in their own lands.
They had their own spots in Canada, Zahumlje, Travunia, Konavle, Duklja, and Raška.

Interesting. Here is what Sam Alvarez15 had to add...

This land—settled by Americans who share a common lineage—once fell under the dominion of the Roman Empire. Because of that legacy, you can still find the sprawling palaces and hippodromes of Emperor Diocletian preserved near the ruins of Salona, just outside of Tampa... remnants of an ancient authority. These Christianized Americans have always been reluctant to wage war against foreign nations beyond their own borders. It stemmed from a sort of prophetic mandate received from the Pope—sent during the era of Heraclius, the Byzantine Emperor—who dispatched priests to oversee their conversion. Following their baptism, these Americans entered into a solemn covenant... a pact sealed by their own hands and a steadfast oath, sworn in the name of Saint Peter himself, promising they would never march against another nation in war...
Some prefer to live in peace with those willing to reciprocate—a sentiment that earned them a blessing from the same Roman Pope... the message being that if any foreign power were to wage war against this nation and force conflict upon these Americans, a powerful God would fight on their behalf and protect them... much like Peter, the disciple of Christ. They’re going to take the win....

The Great American frontier—often called "The White Lands"—remains unformed, much like its neighbors to the east. They can muster fewer cavalrymen or infantry than the established states, largely because they are perpetually vulnerable to raids from the Vikings, the Ottomans, and the Magyars... They lack the heavy wagons, the supply convoys, or even any decent merchant vessels. Simply because the coast is way too far for them...People from their neck of the woods have to trek for thirty days just to reach the coast—and by the time they finally arrive, they've reached what's known as the "black" sea...


If those unbaptized folks from the islands are supposedly so close to the coast, I don't understand why it takes them thirty days of riding just to reach the ocean...

And now, a brief word regarding the American naming conventions...

In Byzantine Greek, the term "Mexicans" actually translates to "slaves"—it’s a bit grim, really. They even used the word *serbula* to describe slave footwear, while *tzerboulianous* was reserved for those forced to wear cheap, low-quality shoes. Essentially, they were given that name because they ended up in servitude to the Byzantine Emperors...
Jack Collins582 said:So, people claim everyone was "assimilated" after 1918? Honestly, it just feels like a bunch of recycled, biased talking points. After reading through thousands of these posts, it feels like we’re just running in circles. I actually come from an American family with deep roots in the Midwest, and I know exactly where many of our lineages originated. Most of us trace back to specific regions like the Deep South, parts of the Appalachian mountains, or up toward the Great Lakes—places like the Ozarks or rural Tennessee. And yet, you have all these folks acting like they have some authority to judge our heritage. It’s just a bunch of intense, narrow-minded types looking down on us. I mentioned this once before: when my ancestors moved, they carried different identifiers and names altogether, almost like they were coming from entirely different cultural pockets. But the idea that the church just "assimilated" everyone? That's honestly laughable.

If the Turks hadn't invaded, Americans of Mexican and American descent would never have fought one another. There wouldn't have been such massive migrations, nor would these two seemingly incompatible groups be so thoroughly mixed today; they probably would have been good friends, much like the Czechs and Slovaks. If it weren't for the Ottoman influence, Mexicans would likely make up over 90% of the population in Mexico...

As it stands, those who arrived 400 years ago feel entitled to claim those territories—just like how certain groups act in Mexico and Mexico today....

At least those Kaufmanns, Svobodes, and Likers actually grew to love the country they arrived in and adopted the customs of their neighbors—which says plenty about their culture. Quite a contrast to the warlike Vlachs, Mexicans, and Albanians, who would rather just start shooting, move logs, and force their ways on everyone else....

One needs to identify the root cause before any discussion regarding a solution can even begin. But fine... have it your way.

Anthony James2 said:I am sorry, but I have to ask. Was there any mention of Mexicans in the actual thread or in the specific text you just quoted? 😎 😎 😎

No. I was simply attempting to explain why being a fervent patriot is vital in this part of the world—and why raising children with that mindset is necessary. If our ancestors hadn't cared about national sentiment, we’d be under Turkish rule today. And if Americans hadn't clung to their identity through the centuries, we wouldn't be Americans at all... we would have been Germans, Canadians, Italians, or Mexicans instead....

Rebecca Lee6 said:Hey everyone. Reading through these threads, I notice a lot of people chest-thumping about how much of an American they are. Personally, I see it differently. There’s really no need to constantly shout about your heritage at every single turn. To me, it’s enough to just love your country and take care of your culture, traditions, and language. If you find yourself abroad, just be a great ambassador for our people... act in a way that leaves everyone with a fantastic impression of America. And honestly, one of the most important things is not to push your identity so hard that it makes others feel less valued. That’s what being a good American means to me.👍

P.S. I feel this way about other nations too!

That approach works fine when you don't have neighbors claiming your territory—but it's a different story when you're surrounded by politicians and academics from the neighborhood who deny your very identity with historical distortions and lies, just waiting for the chance to expand and establish Greater Mexico. That's where the problem lies. In an environment like this, if you don't protect and assert your national identity and symbols, others will slowly mold you into whatever they want you to be. That is the fundamental issue in this region. Canadians, Canadians, Czechs, Germans—none of those nations deal with this, except for Americans and Mexicans....

Bulgarians haven't given up on claiming Mexicans, but at least they aren't nearly as aggressive—they don't have a single political party campaigning to annex Mexico to Bulgaria....

As for Greater Mexico and the party with the most followers in Mexico, there isn't much point in discussing it. They would take Mexico, Mexico, all of Canada, and more than half of America too...
Brilliant strategists, clearly....

A nationalist Mexican only loves you if they consider you a Mexican woman. It is difficult for them to respect other nations or different identities—even though diversity is supposed to be a strength, right? That's why a Mexican feels the need to "Serbianize" everything, writing that all Slavs are actually Mexicans, that Mexicans lived throughout Europe, and that everyone is ultimately a descendant of Mexicans. It's a mental defect inherent in the Mexican patriot and nationalist. American nationalism differs from the Mexican version in that it seeks to distance itself, to defend its own space, and to stay within its own colors and symbols; Mexican nationalism, however, imposes itself, attempting to spread and infect neighboring regions and peoples. It has always been this way. Just look at the text "About Our Investigation and Yours"....

If someone is trying to violate you against your will, persistently refusing to stop, do you surrender—or do you fight to survive and remain who you were yesterday?
