Actually, I don't think so. Everyone here (with the exception of indigeneous native americans) are immigrants.

While I agree that there schisms among Europeans, I still think it's appropriate to analyze them as a collective whole.

And, I think their hate of American capitalism is convenient and comes from their realization that they're no longer on top. If they had the upper-hand, I doubt they'd have any probs with commercialism.

Yeah...I agree that they tilt towards the left. But the way I see it, they remind me of Democrats whose humanitarian agenda is superficial. They protest all social ills that they're responsible for manufacturing.

P.S.
Boy am I glad you're here.
