I will answer you once you make your points in a civilized manner...

Will you answer him if he calls you stupid, an idiot, a liar, delusional or any of the other terms you have used throughout this thread to insult people. You need to look inward if you'd like to elevate the quality of this thread. He is being civilized. It's perfectly reasonable to use the term xenophobia where it applies. That's why the term exists. Same with racism.

You can't post links suggesting black people are naturally dumber than white people and saying that the 'arabs' are coming to destroy your culture and not expect to hear those terms.

Pardon?



Seriously, why do you keep taking this holier-than-thou approach when approximately 1 in every 5 of your posts contains an insult, attack on the person or calls them a name?

But I changed, it was a long time ago :p

Anyway, people insulted me too. I think I was rather on the defensive....

Oh my, aren't you sensitive. But I'm not here to play games. You wanna ignore what I said or try to dismiss it, be my guest. I'm fairly certain your answer would consist of lies, dodges, generalizations and ignorance anyway. :fluffle:

I've noticed like the name-calling he so often uses, this is another one of his methods of avoiding the reasonable points of a poster. You'll notices he goes back and forth between calling people idiots and complaining that people aren't being polite enough to reply to.

What you're doing is called ad hominems. That means that rather address people's arguments you are attacking them. Calling them names or saying that you won't reply because they used a word you don't like are equivalent when you're talking about avoiding the points.

In both cases, you are dropping arguments left and right because you are unable to address them. When you get told that you should do a little research so you can address them you accused me of treating this like a university lecture and later accused me of calling you ignorant. You need to address the points people make rather than attacking the posters (even if your attacks on them don't include namecalling).

For example, I asked you a question - why is the immigration of Arabs different than the issues that Fass mentioned?

The original post stated that this person is anti-immigrant, period. His country is one of those that has a negative birth rate. Unless they start mating like crazy, and popping babies out like it's going out of style, immigration is the only thing that is going to support any kind of social system in that country. Oh, I suppose they could also go the cloning route...


I don't see why their govt and society couldn't take measures to increase their birth rate (tax breaks for families and whatnot). It's not that farfetched.

Or they could be like Japan, who are quite anti-immigrant, and build all kinds of crazy robots to replace their declining work force.


And there is a difference between trying to keep your land (from the people you were willing to share it with...but who instead decided to kick you off it, kill you in the process and keep it all for yourself) and restricting immigration. Don't compare the two.


I'll admit it was kind of a stretch- but in a way it makes sense. The USA started with just a few ships landing on Plymouth Rock, at first it was probably no big deal for the native population, right? Europe could be that way in the future, just a few immigrants at first... but then more and more- quite likely with a declining (below replacement level) birthrate for the native population and an increasing one for the immigrants. I wouldn't blame someone who lived there for being concerned about this.

Thank you for your sensible input. Norway has below replacement level birthrates, yes. But instead of admitting more immigrants, we should try to raise birth rate and reform pension system.

Is it just me or do you find more ignorant remarks from posters with a postcount in the double-digits as opposed to the triple and quad-digits?

What's with all the postcount rank-pullling lately?

A: No. They would be Japanese by country, Eskimo by descent.
But Eskimos already have a culture, why would they adopt a Japanese one?


B: The Native Americans welcomed the pilgrims... that is, until they started killing everyone, raping the women, stealing the food, lying to them about everything, taking their land by force... that kind of thing is understandably irritating.
Right. Who's to say something like that couldn't happen in the future, once an immigrant population outnumbered a native one?

If you boost population from a reduced population, WITHOUT bringing in fresh genetics, you are practically begging for trouble.

Well, we can start comparing the two scenarios once immigrants flood Europe, perpetrating mass killings and pushing people onto small plots of land...they'll have to disenfranchise every non-immigrant too, since we weren't allowed to vote until the 60s, and they'll have to systematically destroy the non-immigrants' livelihood and force them to live of the good will of the (by now) majority of immigrants...

So just hold onto your comparison for a while, in case that happens.:eek:

How to judge an immigrant group and their value to society:
The holidays their integration brings to the assimilating society, espescially drinking holidays.

Irish? St. Patrick's Day. Good.
Mexicans? Cinco de Mayo. Good.
Germans? Oktoberfest. Good.
Russians? Every day, all the time. Good.

Using this criterion we can sift the good immigrants from the bad immigrants, and decide who we want to allow into our country.

Right. Who's to say something like that couldn't happen in the future, once an immigrant population outnumbered a native one?

I'm not aware of any recent postcount rank-pulling, I'm just making a statement on how I noticed more people who don't post often are often ignorant of the facts / intolerant / immature.

A: Eskimos have a culture, yes. Now, in 50 years, they will have assimilated into the larger Japanese culture because of inter-cultural mating. The Eskimo kids having sex with the Japanese kids. That kind of thing.

B: It won't happen, because back then we didn't have the UN, we didn't have a more divided world of power, we didn't have as much acceptance and as of right now we don't have any landmass that civilization wants that hasn't already been yanked into our influence. If it does happen, it'll be in the form of civil war, or revolution, in which case things will change and the perpetrators of such actions will be caught, jailed, and/or killed or deported or however the particular country wants to handle it.

Or the country will be taken over, which will be just as good. Those who win the revolution are the catalysts of darwinism. Change is good, change is constant.

So your claim is that because it's 'human nature' to destroy other cultures (when in reality in the last few centuries it's only really been evident in 'white' culture) that we should treat all people outside of our own culture as attackers? What do you think causes such behavior? Perhaps the very ideology that people not of your culture are a threat, hmmmmm?

There, you will be safe from the world and you'll get a good taste of 'pure' Norwegian culture, before those silly Italians forced you to have Christianity and those silly Germans gave you Martin Luther.

I like germans and italians actually, grateful for their contributions to our life. That doesnt mean I'd like 30 million italians move to norway. Which they wont, considering they'd have to be insane to leave that climate...

That the Norwegian population has not had any real immigration by non-Europeans in the last 1000 years. Proven wrong. That Scandanavian culture has been largely stagnant in that time. This is despite the fact that in the middle ages there were largely tribes and that the nationalized idea of Norway is a relatively new phenomena. Your claims that ethnicity and culture are equal. Your claims that monkeys are as genetically similar to humans as human are to each other (or at least this one was implied when you argued one to debunk the other). You later demonstrated you don't know that chimpanzees are apes, not monkeys. Your claims that genetics and culture are related, even though several people in this thread versed enough in biology to know that apes and monkeys are not the same showed otherwise.

So your claim is that because it's 'human nature' to destroy other cultures

Yes, I'd say greed and violence are pretty common human traits.

(when in reality in the last few centuries it's only really been evident in 'white' culture)

If you think it's unique to white cultures you should do a little more research.
There are places in the middle east that still haven't recovered from the Mongol invasion.

The only reason it's been evident in white culture is that for the past few centuries the Europeans have had the technological advantages they needed to sail around the world and do this.

that we should treat all people outside of our own culture as attackers? What do you think causes such behavior? Perhaps the very ideology that people not of your culture are a threat, hmmmmm?

Norwegian nationalism didn't really exist until the 19th century. Having a kind is not the same as the united tribes viewing themselves as one culture. I notice you don't know the difference.

3)I didnt say ethnicity and culture are equal...I said there were links..

You said that genetics define culture so introducing new genetics would necessarily redefine the culture. It's a ridiculous and unsupported premise.

4)Apes are very smilar to humans genetically...99% of their genes are like us.
That doesnt mean they are human...

You said monkeys. You used the example of a chimpanzee to say that being genetically similar is unimportant but you fail to acknowledge that the similarity between a chimpanzee and a human is exponentially different to the similarity of humans of different ethnicities. Exponentially, in case you're unfamiliar with the word, means that the scales are so different that it doesn't make sense to compare them (in this context).

Smilarly humans are very close between themselves, that doesnt mean we are all the same. That doesnt mean one group is superior or inferior. I'm just saying there are some differences.

Again, you keep saying this, but the similarity cross-species and the similarities cross-ethnicities are on such a different scale as to make their comparison nonsensical. It's like saying that since two breeds of dog are similar and hyenas and dogs are similar that we might as well treat the level of similarity as equal. It's nonsense.

They are based on made-up evidence, ignoring known evidence, calling anything that disagrees with you an exception, ad hominems, dropped arguments, etc. Yes, your arguments still stands... as long as you ignore all evidence to the contrary.

And I'm not racist. I told it before, I told that I wouldnt want white americans in large numbers moving to norway too(which they wont).

When did I call you racist. I explained why people are calling you xenophobic. You seem to ignore all reason and claim that the evil foreigners are coming to destroy your culture. Even in cases where they came and culture wasn't destroyed, you simply claim it just hasn't happened yet. That's pretty much classic xenophobia.

Yeah, based on the Bible and if Muslims wanted their laws based on the Koran, that might be Ok, as it is supposedly the word of Allah but Sharia, well, that's just too human for me, it's the equivalent of using human dogma and I think laws and religion should be kept separate. Besides, in the West, we are secular and leave religion to those who seek it. Would you really be OK with being tried on religious laws and punishments cause I don't like the sound of it at all.

Actually, Western laws are based on the following:

-British Common Law (big in Britain (duh), the Commonwealth, and the US... pre-dates Christianity by centuries)
-The Napoleonic Code (Napoleon disliked the Church) (big elsewhere in Europe)
-Hammurabi's Code (Which was... just a little before the Bible. Just a little....)

No Bible. None. Nadda. Western law is not at all based on the Bible.

Hey, if you view immigration as an invasion, why not see a condom as murder? You are after all, murdering your country's future - just so you can have sex without children.

And then when other people DO have children, you blame THEM because you know that EVENTUALLY they will outnumber you. But it isn't their fault. It's yours. And you know it.

1.Its NOT anti-immigration its Illegal immigration
2.Back then you could cross the boarder no Big deal then. But society has changed radically and now terrorist are becoming a major threat.
3.Now we just asking that you do it legally, like…. going to a local U.S. embassy we got lots of them in Mexico and across the world.
4.Plus other countries have the right to do this but we can’t.
5.Mexico is building a wall of their own across Guatemala and Belize. But Mexico is saying that we shouldn’t build a wall!
6. Why don’t they try to fix there own country for once.
7. We can NOT solve everyone’s problems.
8. The stupid kids protesting don’t know what they are doing. Waving around a Mexican flag but yet they want to stay here, then they turn our flag upside down and the Mexican flag above it.
9.The Kids protesting should have had some beat the living crap out of them!
10.Illegal immigrants often do not pay income and social security.
11.They are not the back bone of are economy .their will always be a market for people who will pick oranges


"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people." Theodore Roosevelt 1907

A legal immigrant got here through the proper channels, got their Social Security Number, pays his/her taxes and contributes to the system, and becomes a legal citizen. Illegal immigrants don't always do that. Often times they are paid under the table because it is illegal for the businesses that hired them to report them as employees come tax time beacuse they have no SSN. So they do not contribute directly to the system. And without the SSN, they get no health insurance or benefits. But they DO become a drain on the system. And it generates a lot of resentment when the society at large has to pick up the medical bill for Pedro and his family when he lives in his insular communities and does not attempt to assimilate into society like so many (strike that.... I mean ALL) other immigrants in the past have done. Or drives on the roads that he did not help pay for. And does not have to report for military service (when there is a draft).

Frankly, California is supposed to be overrun with deadweight illegal immigrants, yet we pay more in taxes than we receive in services and we have the 9th largest economy in the world. Seems like the system is being contributed to here, at least...

All of this is moot anyway... an expanding population versus a declining population will always win out, the population in decline will eventually unbreed itself out.

As the population declines the gene pool reduces. This eventually results in birth abnormalities, sterility and a genetic dead end.

The only hope of a dying 'race' is to breed with new genetic material... so the preservation of Norwegian culture may eventually depend on there being a lot of blue-eyed and coffee-coloured people wandering around.

I should embrace an influx of immigrants before pure born Norwegians are only distinguishable by their drooling imbecilic features.

Nope definitely not Star Trek. Otherwise you'd be probably be speaking Klingon instead of the profanity laced English you are currently using. The official language of this country is English. Not Spanish, or Russian, or French, or any other language. Eng-lish. Every immigrant that came here legally had to learn it.

As someone else pointed out, it's not an official language.

Do you pay taxes?

Well now, if I were to say no, hypothetically speaking, then the IRS might get all over my ass now wouldn't it!


Do you speak English in your workplace?

Not really. Profanity doesn't equal hostility, and commonality doesn't equal officiality, and citizen doesn't equal assimilation.

Kreynoria']The industrialized world (the U.S., Japan, and West Europe specifically) have rapidly aging populations. Because of long life expectancy and low birthrates, their populations are quickly aging, and there aren't enough young people to work. The rest of the world is young by comparison, and we need those young people. But I can't imagine an immigrant Japan. Fact is, Europeans need to get their heads out of their arses and start being a little bit tolerant of immigration.

No. Why should we tolerate random people from god knows where being packed into our countries? We should ride out the low birthrates, rather that try to quick fix it and let the whole idea blow up in our face.

Unless your nation has a selective breeding program, even native births are "random people from god knows where"...

If your birthrate falls, your new taxpayers are underrepresented - since your older citizens are retiring and dying.

So - every generation that has significantly less people in it, than it's predecessors, is going to have to make proportionally MUCH larger contributions.

Example - if you population drops by only 25% in the NEW generation, they are going to have to pay something like 25% MORE taxes, etc.

And - how does one "ride out the low birthrates"? If you have less children, there will be less parents in the next generation, and so forth.

It's bullshit when people say that first generation immigrants can't intergrate fully; you'd never know that we were ethnic if we didn't tell you.

The simple fact that birthrates ARE declining, means that people are not doing as you propose.

Maybe people are not 'bound to have sex' after all?

Maybe, it is now too expensive, in most countries, to have a sunsitence-sized family?

Maybe, all the shit the mass-producers put into our foods have effectively sterilised us? You know that Chlorine, for example, is involved in making modern bread-products, at something like SEVEN different points, yes?
