Why the idea that the English have a common Anglo-Saxon origin is a myth (2017)

I have this argument all the time with the right wing facists, skin heads and general racist classes here in the UK.

They truly really believe that they are pure bloods. I do find it quite amazing how, even the most undernourished minds can take on this absurd fantasy.

I personally think that we are all related to the Mongols, Genghis Khan's mob. Who's hoards went raping and pillaging across europe. Spreading their seed all the way to southern Spain..

We British have been invaded by every one and his dog for hundreds of years. From the Romans (Italians) to the Anglo-Saxons (Germans) to the normans (French) and those pesky Vikings (Scandinavians). It is enevitable that we all have some of their genes.

I am your typical British resident. Born in london, So I could claim to be a pure blood racist skin head clan member. Luckily I am not, my grand parents shared their generational history.

I am in fact, part German, part Scottish, part Welsh and my children now have Dutch blood from their mother.

The same in the USA, we British were the first foreign invaders on North Amercian soil and we are your blood, there is no pure bloods in the USA. You are all British.

Just because you are born in a country does not make you A PURE BLOOD.

you are not fucking vampires

This is definitely linked to the more recent craze of naming dogs. In my day they were all called mongrels if the they had different parents.

Now its all cockapoo, Cavapoo, Labradoodle, shitguzzler and arsewiper

Like the modern racist pure bloods they are simply mongrels
