It's not just about geography, more about the fact that he unambiguously considered himself American and urged others to do so.

He's still of English descent though, like, 100% English and we know exactly where his England-born ancestors were originally from (Hertfordshire, in Essex btw). If we're talking about political citizenship, then more generally he was a British colonial citizen and not a citizen of the kingdom of England.

I'm almost purely English (little bit of Irish) but I still consider myself Australian before I'm anglo. Washington was born to American parents in America, lived all his life in America and considered himself Amercian. GTFO.

I'm Australian and consider myself English (and Australian). Eric Campbell had the right idea
Mosley was fricking cringe dude, a collaborationist towards the end of the war. I agree with his political positions but overall he's a big fricking homosexual
Aristotle >heavy things fall faster >men have more teeth than women >spontaneous generation > heart is source of intellect
>never did math >never came up with natural selection
Yeah, into the trash for natural sciences besides maybe philosophical underpinnings, which were ignored (including by himself) until enlightenment thinkers
Ethnically, but in every other way possible he was English. He was in fact eligible to run as PM. He spoke with a more English accent than a wienerney, he was Protestant and a most loyal British conservative, imperialist and war hero. If Wellington was an Englishman, so too was Mad Mike Hoare

Just a very small sample of names to consider.
>George Washington
born in Virginia
He's English by blood, unless that no longer counts and it's about geography.

David Hume was English?
Yeah I was wondering about Adam Smith too. OP said English, not Scottish.
Adam Smith & David Hume were Scots. Robert Boyle Irish.
Shit list.
You forgot Michael Faraday
>John Locke
This guy? He was American.
Darwin and Shakespeare then its a clear power gap between them and everyone else
Alfred the great
Mosley was fricking cringe dude, a collaborationist towards the end of the war. I agree with his political positions but overall he's a big fricking homosexual
all the ones who didnt
frick the english
The blacklaw kangz
It's not fair that Englishmen get both Darwin and Newton, the founders of biology and physics.
In 10,000 years where the glory of humanity is spread across the stars, children will still read about them and their ideas. Not fair.
That's Aristotle on both counts
shoulders of giants anon, shoulders of giants

Cook and Alfred the great are the only ones in that image to even come close to qualifying.
Honestly our boy probably takes it if not else by sheer heft
He's Welsh
Captain Cook was Australian idiot
Russel
Alan Turing tbh
Oliver Cromwell because he killed a lot of Engl*sh "people"
It's a tie between Shakespeare and Newton.
This.
Outside of his work on physics, Newton was a complete schizo moron that wasted years of his life on alchemy nonsense.
>Outside of his work on physics
Why the frick would you consider anything else? This is the same Isaac Newton we're talking about isn't it?
> romantizing historical figures
Truly an historlet
He wasn't anything truly special, his research and discovery could've been eventually done by someone else if he wasn't here to do it first.
honestly quite obviously shakespeare and newton, idk why you needed to include like 3 globohomosexual 20th century musicians, also mercury as a pajeet
frick, forgot murky was a poo. Also, don't call beatles or bowie globohomo, they both came from humble beginnings.
Jesus Mercury was born in Tanzania too, now I think about it. "Englishman", the frick was I thinking
Some of the best men were born in the colonies. Mad Mike Hoare was born in New Delhi for instance
yeah don't get me wrong I love the beatles, bowie? eh not so much, but my mom loved him, and still does
Jesus
> king arthur
> “Englishman”
Die, you filthy Saxon.
I really like Churchill (cope), Mad Mike Hoare and Sir Francis Drake
I don't really like Cecil Rhodes, Mountbatten or Prince Andrew
Mad Mike was Irish.
Ethnically, but in every other way possible he was English. He was in fact eligible to run as PM. He spoke with a more English accent than a wienerney, he was Protestant and a most loyal British conservative, imperialist and war hero. If Wellington was an Englishman, so too was Mad Mike Hoare
John Wycliffe
William Tyndale
Thomas Cranmer
Mercury
he was a poo get him off that image
