Spanish people

And then there's another dimension there that there have been cultures there that have been unbroken for thousands of years.

So the Spanish arrived and they encountered living complex cultures that had beliefs that were in the area for 2,000, 3,000 years.

So there are a lot of stories because we know.

I mean, fine, North America had plenty of people before the Europeans came.

But a lot of that, most of it, 99% of it is lost.

But with the Spanish, they documented a lot of stuff.

And then because there was a huge indigenous population that did not get killed off or did not get moved or did not die off from disease or whatever, that integrated with the Spanish, a lot of the folklore just passed down naturally through the generations.

So you have thousands of stories, you know, and some of them go back a long, long time.

And I say, okay, now... brothers and sisters here in Europe first realize a few things.

We're not the center of the world anymore, okay? The British and the French and the Spanish and the Portuguese and the Dutch, you know, they had their empires.

They don't have them anymore, okay? Indonesia is not a Dutch colony anymore.

Vietnam is not a French colony anymore.

And by the way, we have to have more money for the German military.

So yes, it's quite crazy.

And the third thing, I didn't even mention the third thing, In Europe, you basically have no discourse, except for the Spanish and the Irish, on the genocide in Gaza.

So there's like total, I mean, in my public talks, I say, you know, Netanyahu is responsible for genocide in Gaza.

When you have four generations of really native French, you can be considered as a pure native French in some way.

But of course, if you have maybe an Italian grandparent or a Spanish one, There is not so much differences between the European peoples, so nobody could really tell that you are really from Italy or Spain, and especially in France because we have very diverse landscapes.

kind of diverse people also you know it's not like Sweden with the majority of them are very blonde and you can really tell like you have a blonde hair and blue eyes French people as much as you have also brown hair brown eyes kind of everything like in in Brittany they are very pale and with dark hair but in the north they are more blonde but they they all share this um this like white jeans basically and so of course if you are from European countries you are it's still easier for you to become actually French than if you are from an African country or an Asian country and it's just like basic facts like many studies actually showed that even the southern spaniards are closer from danish people genetically speaking than from moroccan people like people from morocco who live actually just across the sea and it's just a reality even though we have some features that can Yeah, maybe change, like we have a diversity of faces in Europe that is quite uncommon comparing to other peoples.

And so, yeah, of course, being French is also an ethnicity.

Absolutely.

And that's kind of funny because it is and has been Western European countries that have colonized so much of the world.

Where you think about Spain, nearly all of Latin America speaks Spanish because the Spaniards are like, we're just going to take this and we're going to conquer it.

You have Brazil because of Portugal.

But then there's, I think there's pockets of inter-European migration where they can just go back home at any point.

So like the Spanish, you know, I know lots of Spanish people that have learned German because they never want to go back to Spain.

But then there's so many who just don't speak German.

don't speak any like their German is terrible

Oh, English is so bad.

Dude, the French, come on.

And the Spanish.

But anyway.

And now it's like the people that said I will vote for Donald Trump.

The Spanish people look at.

I mean, it's wild to me that.

So what happened to you? What made you

I grew up around every single race.

So it was real diverse, black, white, Spanish, Asian, basically everything.

So it was like a melting pot for different races.

I enjoyed it.

And when I was a kid, one of my first acquaintances with pigeons was right there too.

They were roaming around free, but they don't do it anymore because evidently they think it wasn't historically accurate anymore that the Spanish didn't keep pigeons.

So they don't have them anymore, which I think is unfortunate.

And
