yeah that's pretty ridiculous.

immigrants consider themselves closer to their origins because we don't feel accepted here too much. it's kind of funny because if you go back to your origin, the people there may find you completely different from their culture or even "white'washed". that's how I kinda felt when i went back to vietnam last summer. my inability to speak vietnamese fluently really held me back from feeling a stronger connection with my family members. luckily, they understood that and even helped me get some of my vietnamese straightened out. anyways, ha ha i'm taking ethnic studies so we talk about this stuff a lot.

"government does not equal citizens" yes definitely.

i didn't know there were people like that...
actually, it kind of sounds like shes disrespecting her nationality by not willing to accept the culture there. and the ignorance of not understanding that americans will not judge your communist nationality as your belief. so ridiculous. she must not have been born in america...
