Capitalism and entrepreneurialism is third world coded. Our rulers have the opinion, “Take care of our people? Fuck them, make money or starve to death.”

Nation is a subset of race. There is no such things as an ideological nation. Cultures are downstream from genetics. It's all ethnicity. It's all it can be, by definition, and in practice.

It's a good topic. There's no such thing as common European ancestry though. Those groups fought almost continuously through history. The allusion to buying a ticket and coming over, really wasn't common. Many companies paid to get poor people and subversives out of England and Scotland. The Fancy Dutch paid for the plain Dutch to join them here. Take the Anabaptists they ran across the continent and ended up in Pennsylvania where they weren't allowed to speak German in schools to try and force assimilation, force didn't work. It never wins an argument or creates conversion, it can kill the accuser, which at least gets them out of play for a while.
