Most Germans that permanently yell "Islam doesn't belong to us" wouldn't even be able to spot a Muslim or a Muslima even if he/she were standing right in front of them. Like all these waitresses in Bangkok-Banglamphu - none of these German right-wingers is aware that a substantial portion of them are Muslima. Correct, nor would they know many Thai women giving them massage / serving drinks etc are Muslim. I always wonder why do many Muslim haters stay in Thailand when Thailand likely has a higher percentage of Muslims than their home countries. Plus of course the armed insurgency in the deep South 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your rhetorical question and the conclusion it's meant to lead us to are without evidence. Your boogeyman is "mass immigration" and your conclusion is a "ruined country". Which country (that has a policy of accepting "mass immigration" and has subsequently been ruined) are you referring to? And if you really think this is ruinous on a country-wide scale, why do you suppose that "a broad alliance of associations, labor unions, parties and rights groups" held the rally? Are they in favor of ruining their own country? Edited October 14, 2018 by attrayant 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post commie Posted October 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2018 What a stinky pile of BS. Far right in Chemnitz? Yeah, sure. My old friend lives there and he was updating me in real time. One was killed and 2 more wounded by migrants trying to save a local girl from being raped, after which ordinary folk from local neighborhoods went out to the streets saying they've had enough of this "multiculturalism". Guess what, my friend was banned by Facebook hours after he posted what's going on adding few photos. Far right, my arse. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you need to do is ask any teacher. A classroom full of kids with diverse backgrounds is a fertile breeding ground for different ideas and creative solutions. A room full of kids from the same culture, manner and background breeds little more than groupthink and stagnation. Having been a program manager in a government IT department full of employees from ethically diverse backgrounds, I concur it's true at the adult level as well. This is such a universally accepted precept, I'm surprised you are even challenging it. All it needs to sink your argument, is 4/5 foreign boys or girls in the classroom not being proficient in the language. Btw, i'm am all in favour of multi-culturalism, but it should be carefully regulated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post canuckamuck Posted October 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2018 2 minutes ago, Chomper Higgot said: The coherent argument is the coherent success of these nations. Multiculturalism can expand the experience and wisdom of a nation opening windows to different ways of thinking and learning to accept people who are different. However this experience must be carefully guarded to insure that those are coming in are able to support themselves and are serious about become good citizens and find a place among their adopted culture which will not cause animosity among the natural citizens. Any lawlessness should be dealt with by deportation. This has been the essential model in the 20th century. And many countries did a good job of managing immigration and people had pride in multicultural communities. The 21st century model (for the west anyways) is to throw caution to the wind, don't even check for known enemies and terrorists. Have no expectations for their behavior, and open the state treasury to dump money in their pockets in amounts they could never achieve in their home countries. Then stand by while they rape and pillage their new homeland. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, given that density of population is much higher in Europe than, say, USA or Canada, one cannot ignore that frictions are unavoidable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is that the so called 1st world countries, need the immigrants to do the menial jobs, which the natural citizens don't want to do anymore. That is the reason, or the excuse if you like, for uncontrolled migration. For sure our politicians are being, willingly or not, successful in creating divides in the public opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sirineou Posted October 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) As the racism narrative on the right is extreme and insincere promoted by those who know better but use it as a wedge tool to separate a constituency , and further political goals , so is the insincerity of the narrative on the left. Most people I know on the right, for the most part, are cultural conservatives, they are not racists. IMO it is a natural reaction for people to try and preserve their culture. At this point IMO The issue is not racism, It is cultural conservatism, and until it is approached as that, there will be friction. It is that friction that manifests itself in undesirable ways sometimes described with racist overtones. People in a country, get together, work towards a common goal , and develop a culture that is conducive in accomplishing those goals,( by definition no culture is better or worse, better or worst are subjective terms subject to one's culture,) then people from other cultures come to said country and want to make it more like their home country. (Much like some here in this forum who would like Thailand to be more like farangland.) Is it a wonder that people in such countries will react, and react violently sometimes? IMO branding these people as racists , however misguided they might be, does a disservice to all sides, as it discourages dialogue, and promotes hate that further entrenched and polarizes .
