German still dominates parts of the Plains and Mountain West more than a century after peak German immigration.

      They’ve been crashing out about it for a while

      The ICE raids were a culmination of nearly two decades of white people being xenophobic

        I’ve talked to so many people outside the Twin Cities who are absolutely terrified of the Somali population (and Minneapolis in general). Its ridiculous to me because Somali people here are so kind and peaceful despite the horrific things many have been through in their lives.

        These chuds have made up boogeyman to scare themselves. It’s crazy.

          Their entire concept of Somali people is based on watching Black Hawk Down

          A movie that even teenage Flakes (who was angry and still fairly reactionary) found off-putting and puerile

      They have been relegated to some of the most inhospitable places in the world, to land that even the most hardened colonial mind would look at and say “Well that can’t be worth it.”

      And yet they survive there. It’s a testament to their resilience.

    Arkansas being the only other Pacific languages is definitely surprising. What is going on there? My first thought is some amerikkka relocation scheme related to imperialism.

    https://acutrans.com/top-10-languages-of-arkansas/

    Ilocano, Samoan, Hawaiian, and other Austronesian languages come in behind Spanish on the list of the top ten languages of Arkansas. Overall, approximately 7,792 Arkansas residents speak these languages, resulting in a population share of a little less than 0.28 percent.

    Wait, Alabama is Korean!?

    Hyundai/Kia built massive plants in Alabama. Most of the SUVs they sell in the US are built there, and I think that accounts for at least of their sales now.
