    Firstly, no one said that. Secondly if you think the amount of immigrant populations in europe are as large or as old as the ones in America you’re understanding of history is even worse than what the Americans know. Europe now has migration like the US did 40+ years ago. The amount and blending of cultures in America is wildly larger than Europe. The fact that y’all are starting to get what the US has had for decades doesn’t make Europe more diverse.

      As an American, you’re being silly. You’ve heard of the Silk Road? The Mediterranean? The Old World has been rubbing shoulders with each other since 4000+ years ago. We just got here in comparison.

      Firstly, no one said that.

      Let me quote:

      Lmfao you think europe is more culturally diverse than a country with thousands of cultures from around the world? Thats hilarious.

      So yeah. That.

      The rest of your comment is blatantly ignorant AND horridly racist, so I think I’ll just do is both a favor and ignore it.

        I mean, in terms of humans that’s 2 generations, and since diversity and populations concern humans, that’s a big head start. But you can keep applying off topic cliches if they help you feel better.
