Excuse me but you asked what values MUSLIMS have.

And not all Muslims have the same values. You have those that oppose LGBT rights, you have those who support them. You have Muslims that support secularism, you have those that don't. They aren't a hive mind.

Isn't that cute, you're whining about something that's already been done by white people in colonial empires because it could happen to you.

And no, it's not likely to happen.

I don't believe that at all.


Then it'd be a good idea to be more careful with formulating sentences. I once had a brainfart in the Israel-Palestine thread that made somebody think I thought Israelis dying there is just "something that happens". Sentences are tricky bastards.

Because that's all British culture comprises of.


Nobody ever bothers to actually define it, so why not reduce it to tea, crumpets, unwarranted superiority, alcoholism, obsession with football and emotional repression? It's no less true than other attempts to "define" British culture based exclusively on its good parts.

Muslim culture - People who believe in Allah and his teachings.


Ignoring the existence of different sects of Muslims.

African culture - People with African religions, traditions etc


Africa is a whole fucking continent! There's no such thing as "African values", so you'll have to specific about which values in which parts of Africa you're talking about.

I regard both as bad for a free society.

This is true. But denying that MUSLIMS don't believe in Allah and include Lebanese Christians is idiotic, to say the least.

It's almost as if you think non-white people are biologically incapable of changing their opinions.



Maybe we'd finally get rid of the alcoholism, football hooliganism and emotional repression then.



Define Islamic and African values.

Oh wait, you can't, because Muslims and Africans aren't a fucking hivemind.

Wait Zaras im going to ask u. Would u want a fucking cultural and ethical takeover of your nation?? would u want millions pouring in and making the job crisis worse???? i think not. Would u want everything ur nation has been to be taken away in a few decades never to resurface??? it would be a loss to the world and the native peoples. its no different to the Native American thing


Right, time for a bullshit stomping session.


I grew up in Leicester. Yes, Leicester, and in one of the more culturally diverse areas of that city at that. I'd say that makes me about as qualified as anybody to speak about the effects of demographic shifts of this type as anybody else.

So, these effects. There are basically none. Literally, nothing. The sole impacts were:
1) Really good takeaways. Seriously, properly good.
2) Really cheap fireworks/alcohol/everything if you went shopping right after Diwali (that is: immediately before bonfire night, a fair chunk of the time).


That's about it. No rampant hordes of white people without jobs on the streets, no "cultural and ethical takeover" (whatever the fuck that's supposed to mean), no takeover of the city, no genocide. Nothing at all, in fact.

What about present-day African republics like Botswana?

Oh wait, they had responsible leaders within a republican framework, and so don't fit your nonsense theory, and so get discounted. Amirite?
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

Are you forgetting about the Native Americans? The Europeans decimated their race and took over their land so it seems only fitting that this time around someone takes the Europeans land.

Etho-nationalism is NOT cool no matter were it is, all nations could learn from American nationalism. People of all colors and ethnicity live in the US and to be American doesn't mean you must be white but rather anyone born here is one of us.

Right now North America and Europe are the places where migrant workers want to be but in a few decades South America and Asia will be where all the migrant workers wish to go. After Asia and South America decline I theorize that Africa will be the next hot spot for migrant workers. With all the money, business, and people going into Africa from China I wouldn't be surprised if Africa had a significant Chinese population in the next 50 years.

U cannot compare UK to USA. USA is ust one bunch of immigrants from the seeable past. U will say Uk is all immigrants but thats going back thousands of years and being segrigated from the world until a few centuries ago to develop a unique culture.

Technically, chips are a foreign food. Fried potatoes and fish was first made by the French in around 1700, from memory - before that, the English ate fish with roasted potatoes.
