bigoted and narrow-minded - what people should realise

What i heard today: "there's too much american programmes on british tv today, where are all the british programmes?" (he was 21YO) Excuse me, did i just hear that? How olden day, old fashioned, stupid little england pre-war can you get? (come on insult me im ready for you, 'if it weren't for the fallen we'd all be speaking german blah blah blah', just dont stuff 'the war' down me throat, not everyone is bothered about it, but thats a different story).

actually -
'we' as in human being are everywhere, we are international, we celebrate being american, armenian, icelandic, irish, french, brazillian, polynesian, chinese, african etc etc. we encourage culture and relish learning about other identities and ways of life. We should not be insular, we should be encouraging our fellow people to be successful. We realise potential in every culture whatever they may be wanting to achieve. Participate, do not put up barriers, or fence yourself in.

And lets face it, what 'english' person is really 'pure bred'/white/anglo-saxon? the english are mixed and that is not a modern phenomenon.
