2016-11-24 at 1:26 AM UTC in Ethnic cleansing of Europe
Originally posted by Michael Myers Alright, you got me there. Somalis. Pakistanis. They're not even refugees.. They're just looking at a cheap shot to make it into Europe. They need to get sent back.
I honestly find it hard to (seriously) respond to questions of immigration policy. on the face of it a country's government is first and foremost there to serve the citizens; Germany's (hence Europe) 'all are welcome' immigration policy is extremely irresponsible and dangerous, if not malicious.
digging a little deeper though - there are no reliable statistics on how many refugees are Syrian (and for that matter, refugees). judging by anonymous reports from police and customs staff, along with media (photos and video) I would think it's a minority considering the dark complexion and more common African facial features of the majority. it makes sense to grant Syrians at least temporary asylum considering the west is in the process of destroying their country, but considering the brutal, foreign-funded insurgency is largely a campaign of 'irregular' guerilla warfare, what guarantee is there that all of the asylum claims are genuine? there already have been several 'terrorist' attacks committed by refugees recently granted asylum.
it'd also make sense to block refugee applications from countries other than Syria, but how can that be done when the Africans attempting to immigrate claim that they are, in fact, from Syria? the reasonable solution to this may be to ask them for their Syrian address and a conversational language test, but given that even mandating dental tests to verify prospective refugees' ages is considered 'racist', good luck with that.
even then, assuming you could enhancement all African immigrants from the asylum program, is that reasonable? Libya's still in a state of anarchy, in many ways worse than Syria at the moment thanks to the very same kind of intervention. is there a basis for refugees fleeing that failed state too? is there a responsibility to take them in, given the EU's hand in that country's destruction?
my position is, as above, the government's primary responsibility is to it's citizens. there is a humanitarian imperative to help those in need, but it cannot be at the expense of the people they're supposed to represent. the powers that be need to stop destroying their neighbours and put more focus on helping them rebuild instead of exploiting the situation, but that does not fix the current crisis. the only way to do so would be to dramatically reduce immigrant intake and spread those already in the EU out thin enough that they'll be forced to integrate instead of forming enclaves, but even if they had the stomach for it I doubt they have the manpower to do so effectively.
anyone who thinks that dropping a demographic in who refuses to assimilate and rapidly outbreeds them is not going to lead to... negative outcomes is deluded. desperation leads to extreme measures. 'measures' have been stepping up in Greece - perhaps a weathervane for the rest of Europe, considering they're bearing the brunt of the 'refugees' and have already been crushed economicallyThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2016-11-23 at 12:34 AM UTC in Critical thinking is a rare skill
Originally posted by greenplastic Really, it seems so simple, and is probably very prevalent amongst the userbase here because most of us live alternate lifestyles, but the vast majority of people out there are completely unable to think critically about anything. And it's becoming more and more that way every day. People are now used to buzzfeed and facebook feeding them their opinions. No one even bothers to try to read unbiased news anymore, they just believe whatever the fuck they are told to. Literally.
So being able to look at something and have a pretty accurate gauge of whether it's bullshit or not is rare, and very valuable. People are so easily manipulated, you could use it to your advantage in a million different ways. It's just up to you to come up with them.
it's not so much critical thinking, I think it's more a case of intellectual laziness.
the real problem isn't that people aren't capable of thinking for themselves, it's that they have no desire to - there's no value attached to the process of learning or new knowledge; it's just seen as a stepping stone to fulfill more base desires.
modern society is both enforcing that mode of thinking and being warped by it. well-educated consumers are more difficult to predict and tend not to fall into generalised marketing campaigns, and are more likely to want outcomes that are not for saleThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by littleasianlady It's not particularly hard to figure out.
Eg, the cat is a god like Pharaoh figure because of its' nature. Purrs, gets fed, is fluffy, gets fed. It's treated like a king.
The serpent is god like because it snakes its' way like a river, and the Nile was the source of life. And the snake can kill you just like God, so be nice.
The Sun is also God because it gives life. Plants don't grow in caves. But be the cat and lay in God's glow and get painful sunburn.
It's superstitious. It's interpretative.
Not like Jesus doing miracles.
