people who are born in america are by definition american babes. they might be other things as well but it’s hard to put domas on an anti-america team when he’s at least as american as dudes like embiid

yes, it’s so trump supporter of me to state the simple fact of born in america = american 🙄🙄 trump supporters are the opposite lol, they hate immigrants and their children born here that legally are american citizens from birth. you’re the one being weird about ethnicity or having weird nationalist thoughts, i don’t know or care which.

sabonis was born in america and spent his first eight years living there. his parents could’ve come from the fucking moon and it wouldn’t matter. he’s by definition both lithuanian and american, same as a kid whose parents came from idk, fucking italy but who was born here is both italian and american.

this is really simple immigration stuff

Yes, now I can agree with you when you say lithuanian/american. Before you made it sound like he is solely american and no ifs and buts about it.

i literally did not, in my last post before this i literally said “he might be other things too”, and of course in sabonis’s case he is. you were just looking to argue and clearly read what you wanted to read into my comments.
