Um, no. Maybe you should try asking us what we actually are concerned about instead of making assumptions, because not all nationalists are like "Dem dayum immigrants stealin' our jawbz"
1. I am not racist. I don't give a shit what color they are or their religion, my concerns with immigration are based on, you know, the bloodthirsty terrorists who want to kill and rape people just because we don't agree with their barbaric culture, that supports the rape of children, abuse of women, and murder of people who are not the same religion as them? And the fact that illegal immigrants are ILLEGAL? We should not be giving lawbreakers a break. It's not because of the race or religion, it's because of the troublemakers who want to fuck everyone else up. Hence why immigration should be strict so we can filter out the dangerous people. The terrorists DO NOT want peace, being nice to them will not help. They want to kill us, that's why they're sneaking in with the innocent refugees. We need a way to keep them out and bring those who are genuinely just refugees in.
2. I am not saying cultures are unchangable, I am saying people should be allowed to keep their culture as much as they want if it's not hurting people. Embracing cultures does not mean you automatically have to hate other cultures. Some of them just don't get along though, as we see with Shariah trying to interact with western nations. Forcing those cultures that are natural enemies together is not a good idea, they'll just kill each other.

In all likelihood yes, open borders will eventually break down nations as we think of them today. However, this is not a new process, humans are tribalistic creatures, however, the concept of what the tribe is has expanded over the millennia. Our modern notion of the nationstate is just the current form of tribal grouping which most humans consider acceptable. However, what I am saying is not that open borders and the like will not eventually create a monotribal planet, but that the nationalist notion of a globalist Illuminati type conspiracy to create some sort of autocratic one world government that wishes to obliterate culture is a farce.Soyouso wrote:Um, no.

1. You say you're not racist, but then proceed to go on a tirade about a particular ethnic group's evil and barbaric ways, without even pausing to consider that there might be cultural differences within that ethnic group (A Jordanian for example, would likely cringe at what you're saying), or the fact that the modern Jihadi is a monster the West is largely responsible for creating. Further you are assuming I desire amnesty for those who immigrate illegally, which is NOT a point I made. Lastly I would point out that most countries do have a vetting system in place for refugees.
2. Right here is the crux of the argument. The point I'm trying to make here, is that "natural" enemies aren't a thing. On the whole most Arabs and Westerners probably don't want to kill each other, barring of course a vocal minority on both sides. Yes there may be some strife if sufficiently different cultures try to integrate, but this is where the Old World should follow the needs of the New, and get better at assimilating different cultures.

It would really help your argument if you used the proper terminology. Whatever awful stuff is done to people in those countries, referring to it all as "shariah" is not only going to be unhelpful in the discussion at hand (since it is so broad a term that you probably end up having to define what you mean by it separately), it also makes it that much harder to differentiate between people who want to hack somebody's limbs off and people who follow far more liberal (for want of a better term) interpretations of Islamic scripture and jurisprudence and who don't think of anything like that when they hear the term "shariah".

The stress on the system didn't become strong enough to create a wave of Populist Nationalism until multiple conditions were violated. Until the contradictions within pro-diversity multiculturalism are adequately addressed, the stress, and thus upsurge in anti-Globalism, will remain.
This is part of what Soyouso is getting at. Basically there is a window of ideologies and cultures that are more-or-less compatible, given some rate of assimilation, and it's actually pretty broad, so at first glance, it looks like all cultures are compatible. However, there are ideologies and cultures outside that window, especially when assimilation rates are low, or sabotaged by switching from Melting Pot to the enthic-tension-in-a-can that is Cultural Mosaic. When you pretend otherwise, it smacks against reality, as we start getting talks about how major terrorist attacks are an inevitable part of living in any metropolis, even though they need not be.
Also this quote is funny because usually anti-Globalism is stereotyped as just coming from old people that Globalists are waiting to die off. Very likely 16 years refers to your lifespan and you yourself are a teenager.

US is not multicultural, Christmas is national holiday etc. When Estonia broke away from Soviet Union, there was large population of Russians who had been brought to Estonia during the Soviet Union (we call It Russian occupation). Large part of them were not loyal to Estonia. Estonia is a nation state with one state language. Large part of those Russians today don't speak almost no Estonian at all, they watch Russian television and are influenced by what is said in Russian news. For example during conflicts like Georgia or Ukraine their view of the conflict is very close to Putin's view. Estonia did not give those Russians citizenship automatically(even the ones who were born In Estonia during Soviet Union didn't get it) It was always justified by nationalists that those people are not loyal to Estonia and if they could vote, they would vote us into Содружество Независимых Государств. Openly they talked about language exams etc. For a true multiculturalist these Russians should have been given a citizenship. Similar thing is going on with Turkish people in Germany and Netherlands. I personally don't believe that multiculturalism could work in democracy. You would have different identity groups in parliament fighting each other on issues that otherwise would not be there. We are talking about two groups here that are both Christians and sure cannot be that different than say Somalies and Estonians. You would not have traditional left right wing politics but these groups start fighting each other. Assimilation is not a thing for a multiculturalist, all cultures are beautiful.

So obviously Western culture needs to be destroyed because of the horrific colonial abuses of the European great powers (that were gleefully encouraged by the culture of the time). There are few ethnic groups that are completely innocent, and attempting to obliterate one because it violates human rights is itself an abuse of human rights.

That is why I tend to breakdown cultures into what actually comprises them. Some cultures have a certain foundation that is harmful to the individual and as such to society. That foundation must be replaced, or removed entirely, if it is ever to survive with other cultures, and as such, over a large period of time without opposition.

I am talking about the present, not the past. What cultures are doing now is what matters. I never fucking said we should GENOCIDE cultures that do that. Don't make assumptions. I am saying that we should not give any benefits to those cultures until they stop doing what it is they were doing. As in not doing the stuff they do.

You referred to Middle Eastern Muslims as natural enemies of the West. Generally when something is to be considered a natural enemy it is generally considered to be worth destroying. Further, going by your logic, one doesn't need to commit genocide to obliterate a culture, because they're so fragile that a few people from another moving can place a culture in jeopardy of extinction. What benefits are the Middle East getting anyway? A daily delivery of cluster bombs compliments of a Russian airplane? Durka Durkas being allowed to enter countries that they weren't born in, to escape a Civil War?
