Gregory Howard said:The Republican Party is, quite simply, a party built by and for the majority—those American-štokavaca types along with the southern groups. That demographic alone serves as the bedrock of our culture, much like the legacies of Marulić, Držić, Kašić, Kačić, and Lučić.
Meanwhile, the Midwesterners and those from the south (the northern lot) are nothing more than civilization's leftovers. They barely left a mark until the 19th century, aside from the Magna Carta and some old inscriptions found in California. Yet, they continue to vote for these second-rate lackeys.
If you actually know your history, you can judge the present.
Maybe if you knew history, you'd see that American-Štokavians didn't even exist until "recently." No one actually spoke the Štokavian dialect until it was forced as the standard, except for a tiny fraction of people in Canada. Someone swapped the narrative along the way—I wonder who—and started lying that only Štokavians are "real" Americans and that Canada is the cradle of the nation. The truth is likely the opposite—that the "real" ones are the Kajkavian and Chakavian speakers.
Since we're on the subject, Americans didn't just appear out of nowhere; they formed right here on the land of modern-day America through the mixing of indigenous people and conquerors. So, a "real" American isn't someone "from Iran" or "from Canada." The only real American is someone from America, or an immigrant who assimilates. These stories claiming that the "best" Americans are those who, interestingly enough, haven't lived in America for generations or moved away out of extreme devotion, are just nonsense and political games.
If you're a Štokavian from Canada or some similar wannabe, picking and choosing facts to suit your needs and posting them on forums won't work when someone actually knows a bit more. And skimming books just to find a single data point that fits your agenda isn't exactly clever.
To me, the real Americans are all the Chicagoans, Cleveland natives, Split natives, Lika natives, Slavonia natives... and science backs that up too. Don't let this guy mislead you; your very use of Chakavian or Kajkavian dialects shows you are American. Just look at how hard Bandić tries. 😁
