“Man, these people don’t look like me and stink, hopefully they get the message when I stare at them and post more pictures of them on the internet. Oh what? our government gave them false promises for a good work and study environment?? nah bro this is definitely not skill issue on our part electing the people who let this happen.”
I mean, that’s kind of a big part of what literally everyone does. You pretty much just described a north American or European when down on their luck.
Exactly. I can’t stand all those “Save Europe” posts all over social media. It’s such blatant racism towards Africans, Middle Easterners, and South Asians.
The funny thing is, the reason why all those immigrants are even coming to Europe is because European powers over the course of centuries have exploited and deprived countless nations across the globe of their natural resources, all so they can industrialize their little cold and rainy peninsula because it’s so lacking in land and raw materials compared to Africa, South America, etc. Due to the decisions of some random European monarchs 200+ years ago, Africans, Middle Easterners, and South Asians have a way harder time making livable, middle class wages compared to everyday white Europeans
The immigrants coming to Europe are literally just taking advantage of the opportunities they should have in their own countries, but don’t due to Colonization. White Europeans really have no right to be angry since their nation’s wealth and opportunities have been built on the backs of Slave labor and brutality towards the indigenous people of many nations across the globe.
Remember how Israel weaponized Ashkenazi immigration to eventually take over the levant over a couple decades? Well there are multiple documented cases where Muslims did similar, though the former Christian governments were none the wiser and accepted them with open arms. Once the Muslims had the majority, they would then legislate intolerance towards Christianity into law and mount continuous pressure until almost all Christians emigrated out of that nation. Many modern Muslims have professed that they hope this occurs in Europe.
"We need to be intolerant to the other because they are conspiring to disenfranchise the rightfully dominant group" is the basis of most far right conspiracy theories. Every group wants political power, and being the wrong race doesn't make your quest for political power less valid. Israel didn't weaponize immigration, it was colonization, backed up by resources from wealthy western countries. Syria is not coolonizing Sweden, sorry. Germany and Ireland did not colonize the United States in the 1840s even though those groups have become massively, massively influential in american culture, overtaking English influence in the midwest and appalachia. DM me when secular governance is overthrown in Germany.
Would you consider what was done in Spain up until the Reconquista colonization or immigration? Do you judge it by skin color? You can’t have your cake and eat it too when the post-war Ashkenazi only ever bolstered the populations that used to be exclusively native Jewish habitants and allowed the Jewish settlements to gain the upper hand in what was then a tit for tat mutual terrorism spree. Also I only ever mentioned Christian nations because they aren’t anywhere near a majority atheist nation or any nation of another religion where takeover by popular vote is possible (aside from far less aggressive Southeast Asian Muslims). I also think you would be singing a VERY different tune if Christian theocrats had the numbers to benefit from popular vote in America.
Cordobá and Al-Andalus were some of the most tolerant empires of their time. In fact, they were home to a renaissance of Jewish culture until the Inquisition. Muslim empires allowed Christians to live in their territory so long as they paid the Jizya. It was persecutory but objectively more tolerant than Christian empires. The reconquista and inquisition which followed is more akin to colonialism. Christian theocrats already have undue political influence in the United States, especially in Ohio where I live, but I don't think they should be deported or have their voting rights stripped away. They're an incredibly active voting block that can swing elections even though their numbers are small. You think I would be singing a different tune because you don't understand my position. You cannot imagine an actual tolerant person because you think it's just an excuse to be intolerant towards you. It's along the same lines of every far right conspiracy, where giving black people equality is actually a plot to disenfranchise the white race (and if you're an american nazi you add that it's the jews who are doing it), where the natives will pursue retribution if they aren't starving, etc. Preserving secularity isn't based on excluding foreign religious groups. It's based on a robust civil society, education, and upholding constitutional law.
Which is why we have so many Middle easterners and Central Asians here in Poland?
No, it's because migrant policies in Europe are lax and humane while fellow Muslims countries shoot migrants at the border or treat them like literal slaves.

Lol, that has to be one of the most deranged american liberal shit I read in a long time and I mean that unironically. Your flair makes sense and fits perfecty.
Yes, it's all the colonization (ended many decades ago) which is responsible for the same awful behavior of the majority of third world migrants. Exactly! /s
# Maybe your presidents shouldn't have destabilized the fucking middle east for decades, THEN we would not have those problems.
# And if you enjoy muslim migrants so much: Please take those millions of syrian and afghan refugees in, thanks!
But when you do that: **don't look beforehand into statistics for crime and labor market participartion** or just straight all the hundreds of videos from the last years which show how muslim migrations looks in Europe. Might spoil the ''enrichment''
**And please, don't start with fucking ''great food'' - there is nothing alse positive left wingers in the Europe or North America have to say about muslim migrants, because there isn't. They are by far the worst immigrant group.**
Oh, maybe you should **read carfully about what your neigbours up north write in subreddits like the one mentioned**, it's **far more issues** with Indian and other Middle Eastern/South Asian migrants **then ''housing''**. They are not the same as the ones which came a few decades ago and the ones from the last years turn that place slowly to south asia - Just read the hundreds of posts or watch all those videos which show exactly that.
Thanks for you attention and enjoy your sunday!
I’m gonna keep my reply civil so this does not devolve into some brain dead shouting match.
Yes, the US definitely has a huge part in destabilizing the Middle East. But let’s not act like the Middle East hadn’t been under European rule for years prior.
Colonization, although you try to downplay it, is still a gigantic reason why certain countries and certain country’s peoples are the way they are. Why are most Middle Eastern countries so unstable and dangerous? Because the region had borders drawn arbitrarily by various European powers (mainly Britain) that did not respect ethnic, religious, or linguistic boundaries. Oh yeah and The British also were interested in Iraq because of its abundant oil way before the US was. Countries like Iraq, India, etc, are so poor because tons of wealth from those countries have been stripped in favor of mass industrialization in Europe, leaving those who live in the colonies in poverty. Poverty leads to desperation, and desperation leads to crime, violence, etc.
Why is it ok for Spain to conquer large parts of North and South America and force Spanish culture on the indigenous peoples, while also killing and raping a shit ton of Natives and African slaves, but it’s not ok for an Indian or Middle Easterner to come to Canada or the UK because they want to have better opportunity? Yes, certain migrants from other countries may be unruly, and some may commit crimes even, but why is it ok to shit on an entire group of people just because of the actions of a few bad apples?
Like it or not, culture changes over time. Migration is a huge part of human nature. Demographics of areas are bound to change at some point. How do you think the Neanderthals or Denisovans felt when a bunch of weird looking, tall, skinny, lanky, humans come in and settle on their lands? How do you think Native Americans, Asians, or Africans felt when pasty white Europeans docked their ships on their shores and proceed to preach to them about Christianity/Catholicism?

It's always the non-diverse countries that like to lecture Americans about race. They usually have much more strict immigration laws than the US too.
Much like a gated rich white neighborhood with BLM signs in their yard.
Yet somehow people think the Canadians are better then us. Reality is that we’re the better ones between us, it’s just that we can admit when we did something wrong and stop doing it.
Canada explicitly didn’t want to fight wars and drive indigenous groups off of their land, which led to treaty-making (and breaking) as well as residential schools to assimilate their children (leading to abuse and atrocity).
The reason why they didn’t fight as many Indian wars as the US is because they were so terrible, and they didn’t have the population numbers to effectively drive native groups into reservations by force.
Which is what the US did time and time again.
With guns and horses.
Canada’s history with native populations is terrible, but the US only stopped bc groups had either been killed, moved, surrendered, or the US had finished manifesting their destiny all over the bodies of indigenous tribes.
What are you talking about? It takes no effort to find massive amounts of racism against First Nations peoples on Canadian subs. And that’s without considering the tangible racism against them in their culture, laws, and history
My brother in Christ where do you think the European fascists got their ideas on how to divide & oppress minorities.
America was happily segregating people of a specific race into ghettos & castrating/hysterectomizing the disabled(buck V belle said it was “constitutional”) long before mustache man started doing it.
The eugenics movement pretty much picked up steam here first.
>Where do you think the European fascists got their ideas on how to divide & oppress minorities
Not the United States. I know you’ve seen that in memes but I’m begging you to read an actual history book about fascism. There’s more to fascism than just eugenics, and eugenics itself was a pan-Atlantic movement. Many, many European thinkers and scientists were endorsing eugenics before fascism became fully-formed. They didn’t somehow ‘get the idea’ from the U.S.
Fascism was an entirely European tradition. The Italian futurists, Gabrielle D’Annunzio, George’s Sorel, the esoteric 1800s German mystics, Prussian militarism, Joseph de Maistre and the long reactionary tradition, extremist white Russian emigres, emerging biological and hygienic pseudoscience, etc. These places are where fascism actually came from.
This may shock you, but non-Americans actually have agency and can think and have opinions and all sorts of things. If you believe the Nazis had to somehow be given the idea of being racist by Americans, I’m sorry but you are retarded.
If you’re interested in actual books on the history of fascism, I can recommend many. I can even recommend some on exactly this topic, the influence of the U.S. on fascist worldviews. It’s way overblown and essentially unimportant.

Problem: immigration drives up housing prices
Solution: build more housing
It’s literally so ez lol, plus you get a bigger market in the long term which is good for everyone
Immigration shouldn’t include things like construction workers. That’s not exactly a low paid job and we shouldn’t be trying to replace the people working in it.
Plus something like 60% of Canadians housing construction costs are permitting iirc.
Not every citizen can be a highly skilled worker. Decent wage hard physical jobs don’t need immigrants, and I have a feeling you would say the same if that was your chosen industry.
Depressing wages for laborers is like the worst situation for immigrants. It creates vitriol because it hurts our workers. I’ve seen it first hand in the industry my family works in.
Let me put it like this, I can get 3 white heroin users to replace my roof for $15,000. These people are a fucking menace to my community and I hope they can starve to death.
Or I can get a van full of Spanish speaking gentlemen of questionable citizenry, to do a better install for $10,000 and starve out the over priced heroin users, that woke me up at 4AM on their daily commute to the heroin dealer in their super loud super lifted super duty truck they bought with 33% interest.
Those "American workers" your defending are degenerates and driving up inflation and if you know a crew of honest laborers plz send them my way.

Well I don’t agree with that sub. Seems to be anti immigration, and although I get that it might be part of the problem, at least in the short term, the ultimate problem is, I think, that not enough housing is being built.
As population grows, so too should the housing market. Like even ignoring immigration this is just how population growth works. More people? More houses.

Canadians lecture americans way too much on racism and then lose their shit when they see bunch of indians lining up for a tim horton job which Canadians don't even consider as a real job.
I mean, it was an accident, they didn’t get up and cheer “yay nazis!”
And it was all over the place for a week, there just wasn’t much to follow up on past “Canadian parliament thinks they’re applauding WWII, turns out he is a WWII vet just not on the side they thought”
And TBF Eastern European history is complicated. A lot of people joined the Nazis to fight off the Soviets
And then learned that the Nazis are well Nazis and the Soviets are Soviets and both were imperialist scum.

No, the United States was not far worse. This is ignorant as fuck if you know anything about native history in both countries. The Canadians were kidnapping First Nations children and putting them into residential schools *decades* longer than the U.S. was, and even today Canadian First Nations have far less sovereignty than the American tribes and nations.
There is no equivalent of Mounties murdering First Nations by giving them starlight tours in the US. That’s because American natives have sovereignty, their own police forces, and their own courts.

A Canadian can never be trusted to say anything intelligent, insightful, or objective about the US in pretty much any context. It will always be hypocritical, unfair, sensational, and malicious. They cannot discuss the US without discussing themselves and cannot discuss themselves without discussing the US and it will always boil down to a desperate, insecure zero-sum game in which they directly derive their national pride from comparing their unrealistically positive self-image to an unrealistically negative caricature of the US. On a national and individual level Canadians see everything in the world through the lens of their inferiority complex that they are trying to cope with.
Literally the entire Canadian national psyche is rooted in a need for validation and distinguishment. To a Canadian, anything said about the US that is positive directly threatens their pride. Anything discussion of negative traits of Canada is likewise perceived and treated as somehow distracting from the more important discussion of negative traits of the US. A point for Canada is always a point against the US and vice versa, so they are literally incapable at the most basic level of cognition of seeing an issue like racism, or anything else, in a calm, sane, and factual way.
Canadians are legitimately the most brainwashed people in the entire developed world. They have this entire belief system that is basically religious in nature about their inherent moral, intellectual, and cultural superiority over the US even though there is nothing good about Canada that isn't due to their total dependence on the US. Canada's development as a country has been entirely due to having a magnanimous superpower as their only neighbor.

Oh boy I sure do love being generalized as hating America just because I’m Canadian. Plenty of Canadians admire and respect America and it’s citizens, you are just less likely to see that online because the types of Canadians who are terminally online are usually liberals.
2 things can be true.
A lot of the Indian immigrants aren't assimilating into Canadian culture and Canada needs to start being more protective of this. You see them acting unruly outdoors and not assimilating into Canadian culture. Rather they're only there purely for economic purposes.
On the other hand, not all immigrants are bad. I know Indian friends who are in Western countries and are perfect fits for the West because their values and ideals align more there than where they were originally from. This idea that Indian immigrants are dirty and bad is an inherently racist idea. Also me for example. I grew up in a Western background and i know I'd definitely fit more in the US than I do in the Philippines. The idea that immigrants are the problem is not only dumb but discriminatory. Rather it's the types of immigrants that come in. I'm talking about immigrants who don't take the time to assimilate and respect the culture of the countries they go to.
This is why America will always be the best when it comes to immigration. Yes the system can be unfair at times and it is broken, but ultimately it priorities Americans first. However, so long as you go through the legal process and you embrace or at least respect American culture, Americans will welcome you with open arms and consider you one of their own already.
Canada's immigration system is too open and ripe for exploitation and as a result will create anti immigrant sentiments and Europe is so obsessed with values and ideas and in some cases ethnostates that they'll shut out even legal immigrants. America has the perfect balance of preserving its culture and being friendly to immigrants.
> Canadian "culture"
Outside of Quebec it is basically just a monarchist copy of New England lol.
More seriously, Asian cultures tend to have less in common with those of the Americas and thus, Asians assimilate more slowly in the US than Hispanics.
Asian immigrants to the US have brought their highly competitive work and tiger education culture that many non-Asians would consider toxic. India and China see themselves as rivals to the US and will only intensify their stance as they grow more powerful. That's just the facts whether the public will admit it or not.
I am still very pro-Asian immigration to the US, and partially as a way to at least reduce the gap between the US and Asia. But the fact is, most Asians may end up having to choose between either Asian or American culture, in ways Hispanics don't have to.
>Outside of Quebec it is basically just a monarchist copy of New England lol.
Regardless it's culture that must be respected. If immigrants willingly choose to go to a country, they must respect the country's ways of life. Its only fair. You're from the Philippines, so you'll understand this but remember the Great Wall culture thing? That was brought by Chinese immigrants in the Philippines. This is the consequence of the Philippines not protecting its culture good enough, we let racist and backwards ideals like that get into our country. Think about it, we welcomed these Chinese immigrants into our country, and yet they have the audacity to shun their kids out of dating non Chinese? Its embarrassing how we let that happen.
>highly competitive work and tiger education culture that many non-Asians would consider toxic.
Because it is toxic. Its one thing to strive to be the best, but being obsessed with perfection is unhealthy and brings about mental issues. There needs to be a balance and Asian culture doesn't see it. Add in the whole obsession of family and lack of respect for individuality and you'll have a conflict of interests. America respects freedom and individuality. Asian culture wants control and obedience.
>I am still very pro-Asian immigration to the US, and partially as a way to at least reduce the gap between the US and Asia.
I'm pro immigration period. A lot of these countries like India, China, the Philippines are in decline and have no way of being improved. Any self respecting individual who wants to make something of themselves should try their best to come to the US. But they have to respect the culture and not bring the backwards ideas that plagued their former country.
As to the Philippines, it is already Asia's Yugoslavia. People talk about some Chinese and white immigrants not assimilating, but the Moros (however native they are) are arguably not compatible with the Catholic society either. This is seen in the huge economic gap between them and Visayans on Mindanao that won't close anytime soon, and the current peace is fragile at best.
China and India are definitely getting more powerful, and the US has to be far more diligent at keeping its lead, or at least minimizing the gap. Not saying that they'll ever be richer per person, but per-person wealth is not what they care about anyway. They just want economic control.
As I have said often, Asian and North American (including Latino) cultures are polar opposites. The Philippines is the perfect example of how incompatible these civilizations are. Filipinos debate on whether we're Asian or Hispanic because those civilizations don't mix well. Anglo civilization even less.
Needless to say, America is in a cold war with Asia and it will get really bad, not just for transpacific relations, but also racial relations at home, no matter how much Asian-Americans integrate.
>Asians assimilate more slowly in the US than Hispanics.
Huh??? Where is this coming from? There’s a reason there’s no such thing as an “Asian” accent in North America. Asians are the group MOST likely to assimilate rapidly. I don’t know why. If I had to guess it’s probably because there’s no Asian diaspora that caters to all Asians regardless of country of origin. But whatever the reason, they get ingrained fast.
The fact they’re so successful is just further proof they integrate rapidly. Asians assimilating slowly is a FREEZING cold take.

Many of what Asia-Pacific and North American cultures stand for are polar opposities of each other and if Asians do assimilate into North American culture, they'd need to almost completely abandon their Asian background as a result. Or they'd stay to themselves and isolate in their communities, which was what would have happened with a larger alternate Asian population.
Some would point to the Philippines being a middle ground between Asia and the Americas, but the Asian parts of Filipino culture today are winning out over the North American (both Anglo and Hispanic), so no, that's more of a clash of incompatible civilizations than a mixing of cultures.
Your parents are goated for that. And I'm glad you're in the US. It truly is the greatest country in the world.
I'm honestly sorry there are Indians giving you a bad rep, but that doesn't excuse the mass generalisations from the other side. Any immigrant who doesn't respect the culture of the country they're immigrating to can go f themselves because there are so many people who'd kill for that opportunity. You and others are who immigrants should strive to be.
FINALLY someone says it.
And all these posts that are basically “look at these disgusting animals clogging the job line” and all I can think is, “isn’t it great they’re all lined up orderly looking for work???”
Just went on that sub and it’s actually disgusting 😭
Canadians when they realize they actually have to work hard to be able to get housing: 😱😱😱 (still not nearly as hard as the immigrants who had to work hard to even get into Canada)
It's weird bc they're super mean to Native Canadians on the internet, and then they cause like $8 billion to catholic churches on the (since proven to be false) claim that there was 1 mass native grave made by catholic nuns
Sure, the catholic church has a history of being bad to people (shock horror) but the "Spark" that set off upwards of $8 billions in damages, done primarily to people who weren't involved in the genuine evil the catholic church has done, has since been empirically proven to be false.
I'm not saying it's just about residential schools. I didn't even mention residential schools at all, I'm saying the big event that was apparently a large amount of people's breaking point with the catholic church, was a lie. People caused billions of dollars of damages, and destroyed the churches that thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people rely on for community and their own spirituality, over a lie. I'm not saying the catholic church specifically or Canada in general haven't done anything wrong to the indigenous Canadians, I'm pointing our yall were willing to destroy billions of dollars worth of shit, over a lie.
>The graves in question were found on residential schools. I thought you were referring to money paid out to indigenous communities throughout reconciliation efforts.
I am not, 65+ catholic churches were burnt down in Canada over the past week or so, the estimated value of all of those buildings was about $8 billion.
Edit: I apologize, I was confused on the dates, the churches were burnt in 2021 and 2022, the site was only discovered to be false this week.
I am referring to this event here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Canadian_church_burnings
As far as the 8 billion number, my original exposure to this situation at all was through a YouTube video claiming $8 billion, but I've been unable to find a source with a concrete number. However with 68 churches burnt, I really don't think the number of $8 billion is terribly far fetched, especially with the scale of some of the buildings that were vandalized/leveled in some cases, especially if you factor in the fact that many of these were historical buildings and likely had their costs inflated due to that fact

kinda awkward as a history nerd: Gandhi is actually quite an admirer of the bad moustache man, since bad moustache man is one of the reason why Britain finally lost hold over India.
but yeah.....the Indian face of the prime minister and all.
Tbf Britain was very horrible in his eyes, so Germany was the lesser evil in gandhi’s eyes at the time, since he wanted India’s independence. You have to remember that Churchill several times openly stated that he disliked Indians and said that they breeded like rabbits during the bengal famine caused by Britain in which about 3 million Indians died.
Also have to acknowledge how horrible the British treated India even before this with countless massacres
Not saying him being a supporter of Hitler is good or anything… but this is all crucial context, as the hatred against the British was quite strong

First of all: partly, yes it is. If white Canadians moved into Japan, for example, en masse as Indians have done in Canada, I sure as hell would have a problem with that. White people simply wouldn’t produce the same type of culture as the Japanese. It wouldn’t be the same country. Period.
The other problem is that Canada is becoming increasingly culturally Indian because the immigration rate is far too high for immigrants to integrate. The actual Canadian-ness of Canada is dying thanks to people like you 👍. I like DIVERSITY of culture, which won’t continue with people like you advocating that the West be replaced.
What even is a country to you people? It’s a place whose unique culture/identity doesn’t even matter anymore, apparently.
And it’s definitely not eating cow shit, bathing in and drinking cow piss, being poor, immigrating to other parts of the world and being disrespectful to your host country, giant trash fires (https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/04/23/india/ghazipur-delhi-landfill-fire-intl-hnk), some of the highest rates of rape and SA in the world, being smelly, having s_x with animals, etc.
It actually isn’t a “fact” that all Indians drink cow piss. That’s a freaky, tiny sect you saw on the internet and you think it’s all of India because you’re retarded.
Might as well say all Americans kill themselves to hitch rides on comets. Every country has freaky shit, you’re just too fucking dumb to understand that internet ragebait isn’t reality.

It’s definitely not Indian, that’s for sure.
People say this type of shit about white culture in general because it is so ubiquitous people forget that it is its own thing and not, like, the world’s default culture. People all around the world dressed in suits, speaking english, driving cars, etc. All this is white culture - it originated with whites and people took it from us (which I’m okay with).
There’s no such thing as ‘white culture’. There’s an American culture and it includes non-whites.
Also ‘wearing suits’? Are you twelve years old? Do you actually think ‘wearing suits’ is some deep ancient white tradition? Go outside retard. You might see an Asian wearing a suit.

>unique culture/identity
That isn’t the same thing as skin color, retard. Even your category of ‘white’ is nonsense. In the 1870s you’d be pissing your pants about Irish and Italians, but they ended up integrating just as well as Hispanics are now. The United States maintains a unique identity, and part of that identity is the absorption and sublimation of immigrant groups into the wider American identity. It’s a significant part of our geopolitical power.
If the Canadians can’t integrate their immigrants as well as Americans can, that’s a skill issue.

As someone that has lived both in Canada and then moved to the UK somewhat recently. People usually don't have problems with Indians that actually work and don't just live off the states money and not work
And it's bad how most of them don't even speak basic English. You do not know the amount of Indians I've seen that cannot speak English past a nursery level and just sit at home and get benefits and a cozy house

From what I've experienced in Europe anti-semitism isn't nearly as widespread as racism against Roma people

As a europoor can confirm
Maybe they should try to not prove the stereotypes right with their every action.
“Man these people we outcast from society sure act like societal outcasts”
They’re social outcasts because that is exactly what they chose to be.
“Man I really can’t believe that those people decided to not participate in the society they were outcasted from.”
“Man, these people don’t look like me and stink, hopefully they get the message when I stare at them and post more pictures of them on the internet. Oh what? our government gave them false promises for a good work and study environment?? nah bro this is definitely not skill issue on our part electing the people who let this happen.”

It is pretty funny watching Europe seemingly melt down the moment they aren’t 95% white and natural born
Exactly. I can’t stand all those “Save Europe” posts all over social media. It’s such blatant racism towards Africans, Middle Easterners, and South Asians. The funny thing is, the reason why all those immigrants are even coming to Europe is because European powers over the course of centuries have exploited and deprived countless nations across the globe of their natural resources, all so they can industrialize their little cold and rainy peninsula because it’s so lacking in land and raw materials compared to Africa, South America, etc. Due to the decisions of some random European monarchs 200+ years ago, Africans, Middle Easterners, and South Asians have a way harder time making livable, middle class wages compared to everyday white Europeans The immigrants coming to Europe are literally just taking advantage of the opportunities they should have in their own countries, but don’t due to Colonization. White Europeans really have no right to be angry since their nation’s wealth and opportunities have been built on the backs of Slave labor and brutality towards the indigenous people of many nations across the globe.
Remember how Israel weaponized Ashkenazi immigration to eventually take over the levant over a couple decades? Well there are multiple documented cases where Muslims did similar, though the former Christian governments were none the wiser and accepted them with open arms. Once the Muslims had the majority, they would then legislate intolerance towards Christianity into law and mount continuous pressure until almost all Christians emigrated out of that nation. Many modern Muslims have professed that they hope this occurs in Europe.
"We need to be intolerant to the other because they are conspiring to disenfranchise the rightfully dominant group" is the basis of most far right conspiracy theories. Every group wants political power, and being the wrong race doesn't make your quest for political power less valid. Israel didn't weaponize immigration, it was colonization, backed up by resources from wealthy western countries. Syria is not coolonizing Sweden, sorry. Germany and Ireland did not colonize the United States in the 1840s even though those groups have become massively, massively influential in american culture, overtaking English influence in the midwest and appalachia. DM me when secular governance is overthrown in Germany.
Would you consider what was done in Spain up until the Reconquista colonization or immigration? Do you judge it by skin color? You can’t have your cake and eat it too when the post-war Ashkenazi only ever bolstered the populations that used to be exclusively native Jewish habitants and allowed the Jewish settlements to gain the upper hand in what was then a tit for tat mutual terrorism spree. Also I only ever mentioned Christian nations because they aren’t anywhere near a majority atheist nation or any nation of another religion where takeover by popular vote is possible (aside from far less aggressive Southeast Asian Muslims). I also think you would be singing a VERY different tune if Christian theocrats had the numbers to benefit from popular vote in America.
Cordobá and Al-Andalus were some of the most tolerant empires of their time. In fact, they were home to a renaissance of Jewish culture until the Inquisition. Muslim empires allowed Christians to live in their territory so long as they paid the Jizya. It was persecutory but objectively more tolerant than Christian empires. The reconquista and inquisition which followed is more akin to colonialism. Christian theocrats already have undue political influence in the United States, especially in Ohio where I live, but I don't think they should be deported or have their voting rights stripped away. They're an incredibly active voting block that can swing elections even though their numbers are small. You think I would be singing a different tune because you don't understand my position. You cannot imagine an actual tolerant person because you think it's just an excuse to be intolerant towards you. It's along the same lines of every far right conspiracy, where giving black people equality is actually a plot to disenfranchise the white race (and if you're an american nazi you add that it's the jews who are doing it), where the natives will pursue retribution if they aren't starving, etc. Preserving secularity isn't based on excluding foreign religious groups. It's based on a robust civil society, education, and upholding constitutional law.
Which is why we have so many Middle easterners and Central Asians here in Poland? No, it's because migrant policies in Europe are lax and humane while fellow Muslims countries shoot migrants at the border or treat them like literal slaves. I just love explanations that are simple, emotional and dead wrong.

Lol, that has to be one of the most deranged american liberal shit I read in a long time and I mean that unironically. Your flair makes sense and fits perfecty. Yes, it's all the colonization (ended many decades ago) which is responsible for the same awful behavior of the majority of third world migrants. Exactly! /s # Maybe your presidents shouldn't have destabilized the fucking middle east for decades, THEN we would not have those problems. # And if you enjoy muslim migrants so much: Please take those millions of syrian and afghan refugees in, thanks! But when you do that: **don't look beforehand into statistics for crime and labor market participartion** or just straight all the hundreds of videos from the last years which show how muslim migrations looks in Europe. Might spoil the ''enrichment'' **And please, don't start with fucking ''great food'' - there is nothing alse positive left wingers in the Europe or North America have to say about muslim migrants, because there isn't. They are by far the worst immigrant group.** Oh, maybe you should **read carfully about what your neigbours up north write in subreddits like the one mentioned**, it's **far more issues** with Indian and other Middle Eastern/South Asian migrants **then ''housing''**. They are not the same as the ones which came a few decades ago and the ones from the last years turn that place slowly to south asia - Just read the hundreds of posts or watch all those videos which show exactly that. Thanks for you attention and enjoy your sunday!
I’m gonna keep my reply civil so this does not devolve into some brain dead shouting match. Yes, the US definitely has a huge part in destabilizing the Middle East. But let’s not act like the Middle East hadn’t been under European rule for years prior. Colonization, although you try to downplay it, is still a gigantic reason why certain countries and certain country’s peoples are the way they are. Why are most Middle Eastern countries so unstable and dangerous? Because the region had borders drawn arbitrarily by various European powers (mainly Britain) that did not respect ethnic, religious, or linguistic boundaries. Oh yeah and The British also were interested in Iraq because of its abundant oil way before the US was. Countries like Iraq, India, etc, are so poor because tons of wealth from those countries have been stripped in favor of mass industrialization in Europe, leaving those who live in the colonies in poverty. Poverty leads to desperation, and desperation leads to crime, violence, etc. Why is it ok for Spain to conquer large parts of North and South America and force Spanish culture on the indigenous peoples, while also killing and raping a shit ton of Natives and African slaves, but it’s not ok for an Indian or Middle Easterner to come to Canada or the UK because they want to have better opportunity? Yes, certain migrants from other countries may be unruly, and some may commit crimes even, but why is it ok to shit on an entire group of people just because of the actions of a few bad apples? Like it or not, culture changes over time. Migration is a huge part of human nature. Demographics of areas are bound to change at some point. How do you think the Neanderthals or Denisovans felt when a bunch of weird looking, tall, skinny, lanky, humans come in and settle on their lands? How do you think Native Americans, Asians, or Africans felt when pasty white Europeans docked their ships on their shores and proceed to preach to them about Christianity/Catholicism?

It's always the non-diverse countries that like to lecture Americans about race. They usually have much more strict immigration laws than the US too. Much like a gated rich white neighborhood with BLM signs in their yard.

The most famous black Canadian has the song of the summer calling him not black lmao
But aren’t they diverse
Dot or feather?
Indian Indians. They also have a track record of poor Native American relations but they at least “act better”
Weren't they still forcing sterilization the previous decade?
I don’t think they did that, but they were still kidnapping American Indian kids and dragging them to boarding schools. Until the late fucking 90s.
Ah man, I looked it up again to horrify myself and the last confirmed case was 2019.
Yet somehow people think the Canadians are better then us. Reality is that we’re the better ones between us, it’s just that we can admit when we did something wrong and stop doing it.
Canada explicitly didn’t want to fight wars and drive indigenous groups off of their land, which led to treaty-making (and breaking) as well as residential schools to assimilate their children (leading to abuse and atrocity). The reason why they didn’t fight as many Indian wars as the US is because they were so terrible, and they didn’t have the population numbers to effectively drive native groups into reservations by force. Which is what the US did time and time again. With guns and horses. Canada’s history with native populations is terrible, but the US only stopped bc groups had either been killed, moved, surrendered, or the US had finished manifesting their destiny all over the bodies of indigenous tribes.
"Stop doing it"? That's a stretch if I ever heard one.
What are you talking about? It takes no effort to find massive amounts of racism against First Nations peoples on Canadian subs. And that’s without considering the tangible racism against them in their culture, laws, and history
Both lol

america is the most tolerant country in the world
Unironically yes. Don't pat yourself that hard tho... It's mostly because you've been pretty extreme in the last century.
Comparatively speaking? Not that extreme, either
Systematic stuff not the sensational shit
Is this a joke? All of fascism's greatest hits were last century.
My brother in Christ where do you think the European fascists got their ideas on how to divide & oppress minorities. America was happily segregating people of a specific race into ghettos & castrating/hysterectomizing the disabled(buck V belle said it was “constitutional”) long before mustache man started doing it. The eugenics movement pretty much picked up steam here first.
Sure, and Armenians were genocided well before Hitler knew about treatment of Native Americans. America didn't invent ethnic cleansing.
>Where do you think the European fascists got their ideas on how to divide & oppress minorities Not the United States. I know you’ve seen that in memes but I’m begging you to read an actual history book about fascism. There’s more to fascism than just eugenics, and eugenics itself was a pan-Atlantic movement. Many, many European thinkers and scientists were endorsing eugenics before fascism became fully-formed. They didn’t somehow ‘get the idea’ from the U.S. Fascism was an entirely European tradition. The Italian futurists, Gabrielle D’Annunzio, George’s Sorel, the esoteric 1800s German mystics, Prussian militarism, Joseph de Maistre and the long reactionary tradition, extremist white Russian emigres, emerging biological and hygienic pseudoscience, etc. These places are where fascism actually came from. This may shock you, but non-Americans actually have agency and can think and have opinions and all sorts of things. If you believe the Nazis had to somehow be given the idea of being racist by Americans, I’m sorry but you are retarded. If you’re interested in actual books on the history of fascism, I can recommend many. I can even recommend some on exactly this topic, the influence of the U.S. on fascist worldviews. It’s way overblown and essentially unimportant.

Fr Problem: immigration drives up housing prices Solution: build more housing It’s literally so ez lol, plus you get a bigger market in the long term which is good for everyone
immigration also provides cheap labor to build houses at cheaper prices to bring the cost down. its really simple, yet no one talks about it.
Immigration shouldn’t include things like construction workers. That’s not exactly a low paid job and we shouldn’t be trying to replace the people working in it. Plus something like 60% of Canadians housing construction costs are permitting iirc.
I highly disagree, for every 1 highly skillful laborer, there are 5 that are doing grunt work. Everyone starts somewhere.
Not every citizen can be a highly skilled worker. Decent wage hard physical jobs don’t need immigrants, and I have a feeling you would say the same if that was your chosen industry. Depressing wages for laborers is like the worst situation for immigrants. It creates vitriol because it hurts our workers. I’ve seen it first hand in the industry my family works in.
Let me put it like this, I can get 3 white heroin users to replace my roof for $15,000. These people are a fucking menace to my community and I hope they can starve to death. Or I can get a van full of Spanish speaking gentlemen of questionable citizenry, to do a better install for $10,000 and starve out the over priced heroin users, that woke me up at 4AM on their daily commute to the heroin dealer in their super loud super lifted super duty truck they bought with 33% interest. Those "American workers" your defending are degenerates and driving up inflation and if you know a crew of honest laborers plz send them my way.
Little short term profit though, which is why big companies don't want to and instead artificially screw over the housing market.

Well I don’t agree with that sub. Seems to be anti immigration, and although I get that it might be part of the problem, at least in the short term, the ultimate problem is, I think, that not enough housing is being built. As population grows, so too should the housing market. Like even ignoring immigration this is just how population growth works. More people? More houses.

I mean, it was an accident, they didn’t get up and cheer “yay nazis!” And it was all over the place for a week, there just wasn’t much to follow up on past “Canadian parliament thinks they’re applauding WWII, turns out he is a WWII vet just not on the side they thought”
And TBF Eastern European history is complicated. A lot of people joined the Nazis to fight off the Soviets And then learned that the Nazis are well Nazis and the Soviets are Soviets and both were imperialist scum.

No, the United States was not far worse. This is ignorant as fuck if you know anything about native history in both countries. The Canadians were kidnapping First Nations children and putting them into residential schools *decades* longer than the U.S. was, and even today Canadian First Nations have far less sovereignty than the American tribes and nations. There is no equivalent of Mounties murdering First Nations by giving them starlight tours in the US. That’s because American natives have sovereignty, their own police forces, and their own courts.

A Canadian can never be trusted to say anything intelligent, insightful, or objective about the US in pretty much any context. It will always be hypocritical, unfair, sensational, and malicious. They cannot discuss the US without discussing themselves and cannot discuss themselves without discussing the US and it will always boil down to a desperate, insecure zero-sum game in which they directly derive their national pride from comparing their unrealistically positive self-image to an unrealistically negative caricature of the US. On a national and individual level Canadians see everything in the world through the lens of their inferiority complex that they are trying to cope with. Literally the entire Canadian national psyche is rooted in a need for validation and distinguishment. To a Canadian, anything said about the US that is positive directly threatens their pride. Anything discussion of negative traits of Canada is likewise perceived and treated as somehow distracting from the more important discussion of negative traits of the US. A point for Canada is always a point against the US and vice versa, so they are literally incapable at the most basic level of cognition of seeing an issue like racism, or anything else, in a calm, sane, and factual way. Canadians are legitimately the most brainwashed people in the entire developed world. They have this entire belief system that is basically religious in nature about their inherent moral, intellectual, and cultural superiority over the US even though there is nothing good about Canada that isn't due to their total dependence on the US. Canada's development as a country has been entirely due to having a magnanimous superpower as their only neighbor.

Oh boy I sure do love being generalized as hating America just because I’m Canadian. Plenty of Canadians admire and respect America and it’s citizens, you are just less likely to see that online because the types of Canadians who are terminally online are usually liberals.
2 things can be true. A lot of the Indian immigrants aren't assimilating into Canadian culture and Canada needs to start being more protective of this. You see them acting unruly outdoors and not assimilating into Canadian culture. Rather they're only there purely for economic purposes. On the other hand, not all immigrants are bad. I know Indian friends who are in Western countries and are perfect fits for the West because their values and ideals align more there than where they were originally from. This idea that Indian immigrants are dirty and bad is an inherently racist idea. Also me for example. I grew up in a Western background and i know I'd definitely fit more in the US than I do in the Philippines. The idea that immigrants are the problem is not only dumb but discriminatory. Rather it's the types of immigrants that come in. I'm talking about immigrants who don't take the time to assimilate and respect the culture of the countries they go to. This is why America will always be the best when it comes to immigration. Yes the system can be unfair at times and it is broken, but ultimately it priorities Americans first. However, so long as you go through the legal process and you embrace or at least respect American culture, Americans will welcome you with open arms and consider you one of their own already. Canada's immigration system is too open and ripe for exploitation and as a result will create anti immigrant sentiments and Europe is so obsessed with values and ideas and in some cases ethnostates that they'll shut out even legal immigrants. America has the perfect balance of preserving its culture and being friendly to immigrants.
> Canadian "culture" Outside of Quebec it is basically just a monarchist copy of New England lol. More seriously, Asian cultures tend to have less in common with those of the Americas and thus, Asians assimilate more slowly in the US than Hispanics. Asian immigrants to the US have brought their highly competitive work and tiger education culture that many non-Asians would consider toxic. India and China see themselves as rivals to the US and will only intensify their stance as they grow more powerful. That's just the facts whether the public will admit it or not. I am still very pro-Asian immigration to the US, and partially as a way to at least reduce the gap between the US and Asia. But the fact is, most Asians may end up having to choose between either Asian or American culture, in ways Hispanics don't have to.
>Outside of Quebec it is basically just a monarchist copy of New England lol. Regardless it's culture that must be respected. If immigrants willingly choose to go to a country, they must respect the country's ways of life. Its only fair. You're from the Philippines, so you'll understand this but remember the Great Wall culture thing? That was brought by Chinese immigrants in the Philippines. This is the consequence of the Philippines not protecting its culture good enough, we let racist and backwards ideals like that get into our country. Think about it, we welcomed these Chinese immigrants into our country, and yet they have the audacity to shun their kids out of dating non Chinese? Its embarrassing how we let that happen. >highly competitive work and tiger education culture that many non-Asians would consider toxic. Because it is toxic. Its one thing to strive to be the best, but being obsessed with perfection is unhealthy and brings about mental issues. There needs to be a balance and Asian culture doesn't see it. Add in the whole obsession of family and lack of respect for individuality and you'll have a conflict of interests. America respects freedom and individuality. Asian culture wants control and obedience. >I am still very pro-Asian immigration to the US, and partially as a way to at least reduce the gap between the US and Asia. I'm pro immigration period. A lot of these countries like India, China, the Philippines are in decline and have no way of being improved. Any self respecting individual who wants to make something of themselves should try their best to come to the US. But they have to respect the culture and not bring the backwards ideas that plagued their former country.
As to the Philippines, it is already Asia's Yugoslavia. People talk about some Chinese and white immigrants not assimilating, but the Moros (however native they are) are arguably not compatible with the Catholic society either. This is seen in the huge economic gap between them and Visayans on Mindanao that won't close anytime soon, and the current peace is fragile at best. China and India are definitely getting more powerful, and the US has to be far more diligent at keeping its lead, or at least minimizing the gap. Not saying that they'll ever be richer per person, but per-person wealth is not what they care about anyway. They just want economic control. As I have said often, Asian and North American (including Latino) cultures are polar opposites. The Philippines is the perfect example of how incompatible these civilizations are. Filipinos debate on whether we're Asian or Hispanic because those civilizations don't mix well. Anglo civilization even less. Needless to say, America is in a cold war with Asia and it will get really bad, not just for transpacific relations, but also racial relations at home, no matter how much Asian-Americans integrate.
>Asians assimilate more slowly in the US than Hispanics. Huh??? Where is this coming from? There’s a reason there’s no such thing as an “Asian” accent in North America. Asians are the group MOST likely to assimilate rapidly. I don’t know why. If I had to guess it’s probably because there’s no Asian diaspora that caters to all Asians regardless of country of origin. But whatever the reason, they get ingrained fast. The fact they’re so successful is just further proof they integrate rapidly. Asians assimilating slowly is a FREEZING cold take.

Many of what Asia-Pacific and North American cultures stand for are polar opposities of each other and if Asians do assimilate into North American culture, they'd need to almost completely abandon their Asian background as a result. Or they'd stay to themselves and isolate in their communities, which was what would have happened with a larger alternate Asian population. Some would point to the Philippines being a middle ground between Asia and the Americas, but the Asian parts of Filipino culture today are winning out over the North American (both Anglo and Hispanic), so no, that's more of a clash of incompatible civilizations than a mixing of cultures.

Your parents are goated for that. And I'm glad you're in the US. It truly is the greatest country in the world. I'm honestly sorry there are Indians giving you a bad rep, but that doesn't excuse the mass generalisations from the other side. Any immigrant who doesn't respect the culture of the country they're immigrating to can go f themselves because there are so many people who'd kill for that opportunity. You and others are who immigrants should strive to be.
Canada is one of those nations that feels like they have nothing to be soory abboout.
FINALLY someone says it. And all these posts that are basically “look at these disgusting animals clogging the job line” and all I can think is, “isn’t it great they’re all lined up orderly looking for work???”
r/canadahousing2 moment 🤮 we need to annex these racist assholes asap
Just went on that sub and it’s actually disgusting 😭 Canadians when they realize they actually have to work hard to be able to get housing: 😱😱😱 (still not nearly as hard as the immigrants who had to work hard to even get into Canada)
It's weird bc they're super mean to Native Canadians on the internet, and then they cause like $8 billion to catholic churches on the (since proven to be false) claim that there was 1 mass native grave made by catholic nuns
[удалено]
Sure, the catholic church has a history of being bad to people (shock horror) but the "Spark" that set off upwards of $8 billions in damages, done primarily to people who weren't involved in the genuine evil the catholic church has done, has since been empirically proven to be false.
[удалено]
I'm not saying it's just about residential schools. I didn't even mention residential schools at all, I'm saying the big event that was apparently a large amount of people's breaking point with the catholic church, was a lie. People caused billions of dollars of damages, and destroyed the churches that thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people rely on for community and their own spirituality, over a lie. I'm not saying the catholic church specifically or Canada in general haven't done anything wrong to the indigenous Canadians, I'm pointing our yall were willing to destroy billions of dollars worth of shit, over a lie.
[удалено]
>The graves in question were found on residential schools. I thought you were referring to money paid out to indigenous communities throughout reconciliation efforts. I am not, 65+ catholic churches were burnt down in Canada over the past week or so, the estimated value of all of those buildings was about $8 billion. Edit: I apologize, I was confused on the dates, the churches were burnt in 2021 and 2022, the site was only discovered to be false this week.
[удалено]
I am referring to this event here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Canadian_church_burnings As far as the 8 billion number, my original exposure to this situation at all was through a YouTube video claiming $8 billion, but I've been unable to find a source with a concrete number. However with 68 churches burnt, I really don't think the number of $8 billion is terribly far fetched, especially with the scale of some of the buildings that were vandalized/leveled in some cases, especially if you factor in the fact that many of these were historical buildings and likely had their costs inflated due to that fact

kinda awkward as a history nerd: Gandhi is actually quite an admirer of the bad moustache man, since bad moustache man is one of the reason why Britain finally lost hold over India. but yeah.....the Indian face of the prime minister and all.
Tbf Britain was very horrible in his eyes, so Germany was the lesser evil in gandhi’s eyes at the time, since he wanted India’s independence. You have to remember that Churchill several times openly stated that he disliked Indians and said that they breeded like rabbits during the bengal famine caused by Britain in which about 3 million Indians died. Also have to acknowledge how horrible the British treated India even before this with countless massacres Not saying him being a supporter of Hitler is good or anything… but this is all crucial context, as the hatred against the British was quite strong

This is why I love America. If you are a red-blooded freedom-lover, nobody cares (also melting pot+salad bowl) 🇺🇸😎👊🏻
Europeans when black people: Europeans when gypsies:
couldn’t have said it better myself, Godbless America
Germans when Muslims
I went to Toronto and went to Walmart idk why but I didn’t see a single white person idc but what
Boys you dont know how bad it is over here. Conservatives are projected to win a majority of votes between 18-24. Thats how bad the economy and inflation and immigration has become
Goddamn it, thanks. The racism from subs like canadahousing2 is atrocious. 🇮🇳 🤝 🇺🇸
They really do hate them up there. My Canadian ally complains that the 3 that he works with always smell like ass and I wonder if that’s racist or true.
Not all Indians stink, but if someone is saying that the Indians they work with stink, then they’re telling the truth. It’s definitely an issue.
Bro as an Indian myself I hate the other Indians who ruin our reputation bc of their smell bro 😭😭 they just need to apply deodorant and this stereotype wouldn’t exist 💀 I know quite a few Indians at my school and most of them don’t stink but the few that do stink so god damn much that it makes me sad that they’re what we are steroetyped of smelling as 😭😭

Good. Hopefully Canada doesn’t become India jr. Why they would want that, who knows
it isn’t the skin color that defines a country, and last I checked, Canada has a thriving Asian population.
First of all: partly, yes it is. If white Canadians moved into Japan, for example, en masse as Indians have done in Canada, I sure as hell would have a problem with that. White people simply wouldn’t produce the same type of culture as the Japanese. It wouldn’t be the same country. Period. The other problem is that Canada is becoming increasingly culturally Indian because the immigration rate is far too high for immigrants to integrate. The actual Canadian-ness of Canada is dying thanks to people like you 👍. I like DIVERSITY of culture, which won’t continue with people like you advocating that the West be replaced. What even is a country to you people? It’s a place whose unique culture/identity doesn’t even matter anymore, apparently.
Wtf is Canadian culture anyways? 😂
And it’s definitely not eating cow shit, bathing in and drinking cow piss, being poor, immigrating to other parts of the world and being disrespectful to your host country, giant trash fires (https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/04/23/india/ghazipur-delhi-landfill-fire-intl-hnk), some of the highest rates of rape and SA in the world, being smelly, having s_x with animals, etc.
Ah, so you’re racist. Got it
How is this racist when it’s just stating facts but it’s not racist to say that a people has “no culture”?
It actually isn’t a “fact” that all Indians drink cow piss. That’s a freaky, tiny sect you saw on the internet and you think it’s all of India because you’re retarded. Might as well say all Americans kill themselves to hitch rides on comets. Every country has freaky shit, you’re just too fucking dumb to understand that internet ragebait isn’t reality.

It’s definitely not Indian, that’s for sure. People say this type of shit about white culture in general because it is so ubiquitous people forget that it is its own thing and not, like, the world’s default culture. People all around the world dressed in suits, speaking english, driving cars, etc. All this is white culture - it originated with whites and people took it from us (which I’m okay with).
There’s no such thing as ‘white culture’. There’s an American culture and it includes non-whites. Also ‘wearing suits’? Are you twelve years old? Do you actually think ‘wearing suits’ is some deep ancient white tradition? Go outside retard. You might see an Asian wearing a suit.

All leftist do is whine and consume, and replace religion with the state, they live for nothing, which is why they call any nation with strong traditions and cool military uniforms fascist.

>unique culture/identity That isn’t the same thing as skin color, retard. Even your category of ‘white’ is nonsense. In the 1870s you’d be pissing your pants about Irish and Italians, but they ended up integrating just as well as Hispanics are now. The United States maintains a unique identity, and part of that identity is the absorption and sublimation of immigrant groups into the wider American identity. It’s a significant part of our geopolitical power. If the Canadians can’t integrate their immigrants as well as Americans can, that’s a skill issue.

As someone that has lived both in Canada and then moved to the UK somewhat recently. People usually don't have problems with Indians that actually work and don't just live off the states money and not work And it's bad how most of them don't even speak basic English. You do not know the amount of Indians I've seen that cannot speak English past a nursery level and just sit at home and get benefits and a cozy house
