...how can you have an opinion on whether a certain proportion of the world has been barred from entry?

This is not something to have an opinion on. This is a statement of fact. You can have an opinion on whether it should have happened or not, not whether it happened. Unless you're a cringy history revisionist.

"That's wrong" is a statement of fact.
"I think that's wrong" would be a statement of opinion.

r u serious
A nation founded in the early 1800s by Federalist immigrants from the United States. Has since developed an identity of its own and imperial ambitions. Now a neoliberal imperial power that justifies its aggression by putting it the name of tolerance and social justice.

So Germans now in practice found out, that not many migrants will go back voluntarily and that PC crusaders stands above law and judges. That half of million guys totally won't go anywhere no matter how courts or officials decided.

Well done folks. Now our government have more ammo against utopia with 'quotas'.

Tell me guys how exactly Krauts or Pastas imagine it will work? Like, give us 100 000 Afghan guys and with opened borders and everything, how long they will remain there?
Two hours?
Did no one in Berlin or Rome noticed how stupid this is?

I was asking first: if Visegrad 4 is criticised to be xenophobic and disloyal to rest of the Europe, explain to me first, what leads Berlin or Rome to conclusion that quotas and relocated immigrants throughout Europe would solve the problem?

It's not about 'sharing is caring', it's about utter idiocy to expect Afghans, Libyans or Syrians to be sent to Poland, Hungary or Slovakia and stay here.

How? Should we built prison camps? Because, I must write again, borders are pretty much open, so send us 100 000 Afghans, and before we'll find them jobs, they will ran back to Germany anyway :roll: :lol:

Quotas and relocation isn't the answer. No one should be forced to reside anywhere. They are going to Germany because there is more opportunity there.

And prison camps? Go ask George Takai how wonderful that was.

So you agree, that the serious conversation in the EU about migrants can start only there?
After Germany, Italy and other 'refugee flooded' places will admit that even if Poles or Czechs loyally agreed to share it more, it's pointless effort?

Migrants will move willingly, only when and if wages in CZ or PL will reach the German or French ones.
So, never.




Or cancel Schengen and allow us all to have Border Guards and barbed wires again. Quite simple choices.

I'm perfectly fine with diversity as long as it's not forced or used as a tool to acclaim non-racists as racists for not having enough of one certain race around at all times or some other pointless nonsense. Multiculturalism though can be done without as it's simply multiple cultures in my eyes fighting over dominance for what they think to be best.

How would diversity be forced? And thats not what multiculturalism is. I do agree though sometimes racism is thrown around at the wrong times

Only when sufficient integration happens. A nation is made up of it's people, so if you import millions of people from an area with a vastly different culture, your nation changes.
