Do Americans identify themselves as Germans?

yes, they have dress up and festivals too, sing dance beer and so on
they identify as whatever they think will make them appear interesting or give them a sense of identity, they have many things to choose from
No, people saying they have German ancestry aren't saying they are German
Only the LARPers or people who just want to get drunk during October
The vast majority of German Americans haven't been German since WWI. Up until then, it was common for folks across the midwest to speak and even teach class in German.
Cringe
Some people here do that too
If I rose to power in the USA, anyone identifying as german will be killed.
You are either American or get the fuck out of my country.
America is a German colony.
>No, people saying they have German ancestry aren't saying they are German
Unless you're in WI, people still say they're German here. But that's typically only the boomers, the younger generation try to find another ancestry they are and claim they're that for some reason.
and yet when people do DNA tests they come out way more anglo than german. the larping here never ends
we Celtic-Germanic-Latinos now
This is one of the worst maps I've ever seen and the fact that it gets regularly posted here by krauts like you is a travesty. They painted the South as Irish, I don't even know how they justify that, there was no Irish movement to the South.
Not to mention that the German Americans have Anglo ancestry as well, its just they identify their ancestry as German because Anglo is default since we are an Anglo country.
Also the "German" migration to Carolinas, New York and Pennsylvania predates the existence of German nationalism.
>and yet when people do DNA tests they come out way more anglo
That only concerns the black population.
I don’t consider myself an Am*rican if that is what you are asking.
If i rose to power unpatriotic pieces of shit like you will be deported to somalia.
I am sure you are either a smelly arab, nigger or mexican or a fucking faggot.
>a smelly arab, nigger or mexican or a fucking faggot.
he probably is a mix of all those
Why do people stereotype Germans as blonde when most Germans are blonde hair and are phenotypically similar to Anglos? Its the Norse that are blonde
If I rose to power I'd imprison all of your people
>imprison
wuss
It's one of the best maps I've ever seen.
You are a fucking german.
If I could I would kill all of you evil creatures.
I'm not German, I'm Bavaryan.
>Why do people stereotype Germans as blonde
because hitler always pictured himself next to blonde babies. Anyway nearly every white person is blonde as a baby lol so probably more than half he photographed himself next to turned brown growing up
amerimutts are like 86% germoid
too bad it's false
that's bad or good?
>I'm not German, I'm a specfic type of German
>I'm not American, I'm a Southerner
>I'm not Canadian, I'm a newfie
>I'm not British, I'm welsh
Austria tier logic
>Anyway nearly every white person is blonde
Every Northern European white person. But I guess the nazi romanticization of Scandis is probably also a factor as well as this
It's correct.
I'm Bavaryan.
German American and German in Germany are mentally totally different people no matter how they close genetically each other. propbably the former gets crammed tons of meme virus into the head since their childhood.
>rating the eternal g*Rm
alright papist
>They recognize that they have the German ancestry
Speak for yourself Chang. I am a pure NEW ENGLAND BVLL.
It looks like a lot but the populations in the states with German-majority ancestry are very low. There are more British-descendant people than there are German-descendant.
No.
German ancestry is over stated in the USA.
Many of us are really Frankish Rhinelanders who came over here already before the American Revolution when it was the Holy Roman Empire.
Then there is also Dutch and Swede colonists.
It is the crowd that came here after the 1848 revolutions that is more German.
are you prussian
Stop spreading this idiotic inaccurate map.
That's because Germans on this board are retards.
>British-descendant people
Brits aren't people.
Also this map is not only flawed, but also wrong (the Irish in the South). Here is a more accurate version of the census results for European ancestry groups. Keep in mind that this is a plurality map and if you combined, "American", "English", "Scottish", "Welsh" and "Scots-Irish" into one result it would be very different
Keep in mind that if you combined American,
I'm not German, I'm Bavaryan.
>Many of us are really Frankish Rhinelanders who came over here already before the American Revolution when it was the Holy Roman Empire.
>ancestry = citizenship
peak american post
No, but i always take protestants side over Papists.
So in a way I am Anglo, Ulster Scot, Dutch, Scandinavian, Finn, and Prussian
I do not care about ethnicity. It’s way too hard to define anyway. If you go back my family has people who came from France, Austria, Scotland etc. it’s a mess. I’m an American citizen, that’s all that matters.
This is actually true though. The German colonists were protestants from Southwestern Germany, and they went throughout the colonies and were given land
Irish is still way too overstated with Massachusetts.
People just LARP as Irish because of "muh Kennedys".
Many English (or other non Irish British Isles ancestry), French, and Italian in Massachusetts.
>the entire state of Utah is English
Woah...and I thought I'd have to go to New England to find a British wife...
if I even had any German ancestors, they changed or anglicized their surname out of shame during the wars
I think that was pretty common
>this is a plurality map and if you combined, "American", "English", "Scottish", "Welsh" and "Scots-Irish" into one result it would be very different
but Scots-Irish, Welsh and Scottish people aren't english. it would be wrong to group them together with the english.
The BRD is something not any sane person would want to associate with.
Im mostly german and irish with some french. Im not proud or anything, not sure why id be but yeah, i acknowledge it
So what? they're ethnically german. they're german americans.
Well then you are Spanish.
This is because ancestry is important to Mormons due to their baptism of the dead so they actually know their ancestry and recognize that it is English. Also Scandinavian, they were successful at converting Scandis for some reason.
You can also go to the South, we are all of Anglo Saxon ancestry.
Scots irish basically are. But anyways if you can just group together "American" and "english" and it would show a very different result, since American means old stock which is mostly English with some Scots-Irish and German prot

I am Basque-Nordic.
No, because what matters isn’t genetics, what matters is winning two world wars instead of losing them.
I actually descend from these people, and I am not ethnically German, I'm Anglo with significant German ancestry from 250 years ago. These people did not care for Germany, thats why they left and went to a majority protestant country where they could own land. Also they mixed with Anglos, so even me who went to a German Protestant church and still largely of Anglo ancestry.

Bump.
My state is primarily of German ancestry but you mostly hear about people being Irish for some goddamn reason.
I live in Ohio, the German LARP is strong in Cincinnati
