Personally I feel more connected to the Vancouver BC/ Seattle/ Portland corridor than with the rest of the US, so I feel more comfortable saying I’m a Cascadian than an American.
I am European (but currently living in Asia). I don’t identify with my country of birth. However, I do feel connected to the Franco-Alemannic culture space that I grew up in. The languages, literature, arts and crafts, architecture, food, music etc. are way more important to me than the colour of my passport or the madhouse that is politics.
I identify mostly with my country (Brazil). I honestly identify more with a somewhat local football team (soccer team, for the americans) than with my state lol.
I am German, but I feel foremost European

I am disabled, and a retro computer nerd.
Because frankly? I haven’t been proud of America since 9/11 and nothing my family or the people around me have said or done have helped me to not feel shame.
The country of “Disabled Retro Computer Nerd Land” sounds rad as hell, (the DRCN for short)
I identify with Norwegian and western european liberal values. I believe in free speech, democratic values, science, press freedom, human rights, unity, being compassionate, a strong welfare state, equality, womens rights, lgbtqia+ rights. I also have a sense of feeling that all europeans are my peers and that we are a collective. When Russia attacked Ukraine, it felt as if they in some way also attacked a close neighbour, a friend and our way of life.
