Poll
Question:
Please select the white ethnic group that is objectively the worst.
Option 1: Irish
votes: 4
Option 2: Non-Irish Celts (Welsh, Bretons, Scots)
votes: 2
Option 3: East Slavs (Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian)
votes: 15
Option 4: West Slavs (Poles, Czechs, Slovaks)
votes: 0
Option 5: South Slavs (Serbs, Bulgarians, Croats)
votes: 19
Option 6: Finno-Ugric (Finns, Hungarians)
votes: 3
Option 7: Turks
votes: 3
I admit some may dispute whether the Turks are white or not, but I lean towards them being so, thus they are included.
East or South Slavs, if we accept the fiction that they are white.
The French. <_<
I can't help but thinking missing off the French was to stop them running away with it as the go-to-hatee.
The Welsh, followed closely by Geordies.
Y'all can bust on the Irish all you want, but I'm up to my ass in fucking Russians and other Cossack undesirables around here these days.
Voted WASPs (for the purposes of this poll Non-Irish Celts). Boring prudish group of people.
South Slavs, mainly the Serbs, Croats, Serbo-Croats, Croato-Serbs, Bosniaks, Kosovars, Kosovaks, Cossacks, etc.
I would exclude the Bulgarians from being as much of shitheads as the others, though.
ManU fans ? :bowler:

That one was racist, this one is honest.
No options for Scandinavians, Spaniards, Portuguese, Italians, Greeks, Germans, or Swedes?
Poll fail. :mad:
There are limited options to the polls here, and I consider some of the European peoples to be "Great Nations of the World" and thus immune from such a poll.
The English and Germans for example, are clearly not the worst white ethnic group. Much as it pains me to say it, you can't say that about the French either. Or even the Italians and the Greeks.

For whatever positives the French have going for them, it still doesn't take them out of the cellar of europe.
Modern Italians and Greeks aren't even white, so they don't qualify for your poll.

Really all Slavs are reprehensible.
See case in point, they are all vandals.

The Greeks are on the poll, in the form of the Turks.
Besides, the Scandis aren't a great nation of any kind.

I was raised Mexican. My blood is Welsh. My friends call me Welshican. :P
Next you'll say you're a decendant of Prince Madoc. :rolleyes: :P
I'm torn between South Slavs and East Slavs.
East Slavs are gangsters and dictators, and have hott girls. South Slavs are sex trafficers and ethnic cleansers, and have less hott girls. South Slavs slightly worse.
This is my problem - South Slavs have hotter guys.

I think that how you were raised is more important than your bloodline. Look at BB. Even though his blood is that of the Slav, he is not inferior (although he is a lawyer, which is evil). He thinks and acts like a regular human, which means that he is a regular human. Culture is the key component, which is why multiculturalism is the greatest evil imaginable. Not only are we importing inferiority into civilized countries, but we're also robbing inferior people of the chance to become real humans.

Well, I'd argue I detest the French as much as any other guy who has a father with basically straight English ancestry and a German mother (combining two ethnic groups both with a strong hatred of the French has imbued me with a genetic hatred for the Francophone world), but I can't look past their accomplishments. They've been a power center in Europe for a thousand years, French was the language of culture and diplomacy for generations, their culinary and cultural influences were imitated by the aristocracy of much of the rest of the continent and etc. They had a proper colonial empire, and won many wars.
To me that's just a different sphere than groups like the Irish, whose greatest accomplishment is a string of deeply alcoholic literary figures and Jameson.
The Italians in the modern sense are pretty embarrassing, but I give them some points because Italy was by far the most civilized part of Europe up until probably the 1700s, and in many ways helped to preserve certain civilized behaviors. Not to mention, as an author I read recently has, French architecture and many other cultural traditions that were spread around Europe were actually originally Italian inspire. French Kings hired Italians for art, architecture and etc and then later exported it to the rest of Europe, so again it's hard for me to put Italians on the list of worst white ethnic group.
I think that the people from Utah are probably the worst.
I kinda like the French.

They are Americans with a funny accent and without a gun fetish.
Meh, I love the French. Yeah, they can be a bit obnoxious, but so can we. They're proud, independent, have a wicked and invaluable intelligence apparatus that has eclipsed the Brits in the Middle East and Africa, and have a foreign policy with an operational tempo exceeded only by ourselves.
Problem between the French and Americans is that we're more alike than either side wants to admit. It's a sibling thing, two countries holding conflicting patents on who invented modern democracy.

The US was a major blind spot for De Gaulle he did not understand us. He was sure we would withdraw back into isolationism at any minute and that Europe should not rely on us and look to its own defense and the tell the US to fuckoff before we left them in the lurch.
It was also personal (well ok it was primarily personal), he never forgave the US for kissing up to the Vichy assholes no matter how much that made sense from our perspective.
De Gaulle's main beef was that we treated him like an exile general leading 3,000 troops we had to arm ourselves rather than a God Emperor.

Sort of. We basically just ignored him and did things like plan an occupation of France when we landed (which the French just ignored and went along with DeGaulle) and force him to accept Vichy colleagues and so forth. I am not going to say we did right by him, but yeah he also had a massive ego and we bruised it plenty and that is the main thing.
The British knew the truth of it (and the American people for that matter), that he was the leader of France. The US government never accepted that until they absolutely had to, and again it was personal they thought it was a more prudent strategy to try to work through Vichy since they seemed to actually hold the levers of power (which was a policy that presumed the Vichyites were more than the pathetic stooges they were). DeGaulle took that personally and got pissed and Roosevelt and company likewise got pissed at him and off it went. It got personal and counter-productive.
Wasn't the leader of France Adolf Hitler?

Heh. Only de facto. The question was who was the leader once that state of affairs ended. The Brits went with DeGaulle and his gang without a better option, we went with Vichy.

With the help of proud German Americans. I had ancestors who served in those armies. It's a terrible tragedy that Lyon died so early. He was an aggressive and energetic general, and with those impressive early strategic victories under his belt he could have been chosen to lead the Army of the Potomac.
