I’m a pro-US nationalist and don’t care what anyone thinks about it.

If you don’t want to maintain traditional American values and freedoms I’m not on your team regardless of your skin color.

If you do want to maintain traditional American values I don’t care what race you are.

Please explain the logic here. Jesus never visited the Italian peninsula and certainly was not ethnically Italian.

I'm with you, but let me ask you this question. If you could see a snapshot of America in the year 2100 and it was 10% white, 90% nonwhite, would it bother you? Because I have to admit, it would bother me. Is that a sinful reaction to have?

I think there is a difference between 'race' and 'ethnicity.' Jesus was a Jew. Jews are an ethnicity but they aren't a race. They're white. My grandmother on Dad's side was a Jew. She was whiter than me.

99% of people in 2026 have no idea what racism is.

Calling anything these days racism is basically blowing a whistle with no ball in it.

When a Christian sees that picture from the Texas game, are we supposed to care one way or another what race they are?


It would appear that Texas is being taken over by street shitters. Sure would hate to see that happen in Louisiana. It would certainly reduce quality of life.

Jesus was born in the Roman Empire so he was a Roman

Well when you are publicly shamed and attacked for nothing but being white, as the left wing does daily, it should matter to you whether you're a Christian or not

They just busted a bunch of institutions in India that were falsifying records, qualifications, and accomplishments just so these kids could get into U.S. schools.

Of course, some here might not want to talk about that.

Indians are sub 2% in both TX and the US.

Are you REALLY trying to make a "changing demographics" with such an incredibly small population?


Going from negligible to 2% is pretty big, actually, especially when they're clustered in high visibility tech fields that Americans have for years claimed were hard to get into.

And if you go to the Dallas northern suburbs it's an entirely different world.

1% to less than 2% is still negligible.

And they're sub-2% in Texas

When you start dividing it by specific suburb and job, it makes the "Changing demographics" incredibly specific and a harder argument to make. Are demographics changing in HIGHLY specific areas? Yes, no argument. Overall? Not really close.

The response and meme shows the power of the internet and echo chamber, though. Lots of people have bought in and I do truly believe there has been a "takeover" and no stats will change their mind. This is like the violent crime discussion.

Are you under the impression that the Roman Empire demographics are the same as to what Italy looks like today?

You're only wrestling with it because your theology is weak. The word used for "nations" in the Bible explicitly refers to ethnicity, to particular peoples. It's not racist to notice the differences between groups and it's certainly not racist to wish to preserve your own heritage, your own demographic security, and your own children's future.

It's not "unchristian" to want 3rd world pagans to stay in their own countries.

This type of thinking is how you get fricking monkey god statues in Texas.

A couple of million people in concentrated areas won't feel negligible at all.

What argument is hard to make? If you live in a quintessential US suburb like Frisco with 25-33% Indian population that feels like 50%+ when you're out driving around, I think it's pretty self explanatory.

I'm sure some people are living in Indian free areas saying "they're taking over the country" just like people claimed Sharia law was or whatever. But most of the discourse I'm seeing isn't that at all. It's saying, appropriately, that very visible American suburbs are changing their demographics and character over relatively short periods and none of the natives were really ever given meaningful ability to weigh in on it.
