A myth?
My family came here on the Mayflower, thank you very much. Did they build this country with their bare hands so that Huddled Masses and Wretched Refuse could come here with their hands outstretched looking for goodies? No. Of course not. They did it for their "posterity" meaning their blood offspring: AMERICANS, ENGLISHMEN IN BRITISH NORTH AMERICA.
The problem with "immigrants" has only worsened since then.
Those Huddled Masses hardly assimilated: they turned America into the serfdom they left. FDR was their emperor and now we see the ultimate fruit of that poisoned tree called "immigration".
Magic pixie dust never worked and it won't work as we are all reduced to slavery in the land our fathers shed and spilled blood to bequeath to us.
PS: All you "you stole if from the Indians" idiots: Shut up. You sound like the rabid Communists you are. For everyone else, research "dispossession of the Indians" and "Comintern" and you'll know all you need to know about the origina nad intent of that scurrilous canard.

1. Nobody but Injuns in America.
2. White folk occupy all of America.
3. Injuns never got paid for it.
Q.E.D.
Your family came on the Mayflower? What, all of it? Big boat.

Joe lies.
First, he cannot possibly be descended from people on the Mayflower along every single line.
Second, even if he were to claim such descent, the line would contain at least one of what is so delicately referred to as a "non-paternity event". Until the last few decades, the rate of false paternity was something like 5-10 percent, and it has been 20 generations or more since the Mayflower.
From a descendant of the "Huddled Masses": my grandfather was a League of Nations interpreter and his nephew was Roosevelt's interpreter at Yalta. And Roosevelt's family was Knickerbocker Dutch. Meanwhile, what have you done, you whitebread fuck?
"PS: All you "you stole if from the Indians" idiots: Shut up."
No, we won't. Because we're right and you're wrong.
Probably against my better judgement, I looked up this "Comintern" that Joe mentions. It stands for Communist Internation, which was a group that founded in 1919 and disbanded in 1943.
So what a group formed in the 20th century has to do with Europeans stealing land and deliberately infecting the native populations with smallpox and other diseases starting in the 16th century is beyond me.
"deliberately infecting the native populations with smallpox and other diseases starting in the 16th century is beyond me."
Do you have a legitimate citation for this one? I've heard this one for years, and it doesn't seem to make sense that the same people who thought that disease was caused by witchcraft and demonic influences were pioneers of biological warfare.
Real assholes who did absolutely nothing justified, certainly. But ascribing to them this kind of centuries-ahead-of-their-time supervillainy seems absurd.

Of course, that's from the 18th century... so it doesn't support the "from the 16th century" claim. Still, it bloody happened...
As for Joe M... " Did they build this country with their bare hands so that Huddled Masses and Wretched Refuse could come here with their hands outstretched looking for goodies?"
Research what the message the Statue of Liberty holds is...
@Doubting Thomas: Actually, the Mayflower Society itself says there are millions of US citizens who can trace their lineage back to the Pilgrims. Many of the Pilgrims were rather prolific breeders; my ancestors, John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley (unless the Mayflower Society really got it wrong with my grandmother and father), had 10 children, all of whom lived to have families of their own. Those 10 families had 11, 10 12, 9, 4, 9, 9, 11, 3, and 8 children; I'm not sure how many of those 86 grandchildren lived to have families of their own, but if you multiply even a portion of them down by the over a dozen generations between them and the most recent generation, you get a lot of lineages just from those two.
In fact, Hasan, on my father's side, there are both Angles and Saxons, yet I have no known ancestry from the British Isles. To wit:
One branch of my paternal grandfather's family came from the Angle of the Unstrut, whence cometh the term Angle.
One branch of that same family came from upper Saxony.
I therefore could call myself an Anglo-Saxon, if I wished to (I don't) with more recency and greater color of truth than these deGermanated whitebread types.

IT'S SCURRILOUS...SCURRILOUS, I TELL YOU!...
By the way...Is this bozo saying that the existence of Indigenous American/First Nation folks was a fiction made up by Communists? Was Sitting Bull a made up fantasy character like Darth Vader, Sam I Am, The Sugar Plum Fairy or The Wizard of Oz?
If anyone has a theory on what the heck this weirdo is try to say with this assertion I'll be forever grateful.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
