or you can kick immigrants that are on welfare out of the country

Didn’t you many time showed immigrants are harder worker ?
Especially in jobs native do not like to do ?

Ps: to believe the 10-15 US poorest states , ending up being red, is because of immigration and not because of idiocy economic ideology is laughable .

But yes the right is never wrong , always blaming someone else .

And ofc that's the worst of maga, as usual, whatever leftism a movement has, that is what is wrong with a movement.

not everywhere, and not very recent waves which were insane in canada, the UK and elsewhere.

In the USA , welfare is small, and immigrants are better selected (or were until recently) . That's why it's clear immigration overall was very beneficial to the USA (doesn't mean that taking in a random million third worlders more is going to be good though).

Canada was similar up to 2010-2012.

Almost everywhere else except small rich countries that filter a lot (like switzerland or singapore), immigration is a tumor. A cancer. An utter unmitigated disaster. Not ALL of it, but significant portions of it. Something we should completly undo by mass repatriation of millions of people per country in the EU.

So that makes the discussion complicated unless you follow who i am addressing and where he is from. Remembering you answered about Germany. In Germany immigration has been a complete disaster. Enemies of the west by the millions, uneducated low IQ turkish and sirians who even 10 years after taking refuge in Germany still have massively lower occupation rates at lower incomes. A drag on everyone else. Completly incompatible with the generous welfare state Germany wants to have for its residents. One of the worst policy mistakes ever in the west. Ofc covid lockdowns, the war on drugs and closing down nuclear were possibly even worse for Germany. But mass unfiltered low quality immigration is among them

or the unprecedented horrors of covid management, all unleashed by democrats.

Laughable take.

Laughable take.

if it wasn't common among people studying it

Recent studies indicate that the mental health of Gen Zs has been greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. There are signs that the crisis has already significantly impacted the older cohort of Gen Z (18–23-year-olds) to a greater degree than older generations, particularly regarding employment (Parker & Igielnik, 2020). According to Liu et al. (2021) , the enormous amount of complex information about COVID-19 exceeded the information-processing capacity of Gen Zs and hindered their ability to develop an unbiased assessment of COVID-19, leading to a higher level of fear of the coronavirus pandemic. In addition, Azimi et al. (2022) found that the top two COVID-19 concerns for Gen Z were health and financial security. Generation Z is deeply concerned about uncertainty in the future.

There's a shocker.


Why are law enforcement officers enforcing EOs instead of established law?

That’s fine but nothing in all of this explain how reducing welfare from government, making life much harder for people , will translate in a more productive and profitable society .

Immigration or not …

Stalinism not Marxism.


by Luciom

it's just state charity at a massive scale

Getting back to the point I made. Whats your view on the massive scale state charity that exists to subsidise companies that can but don’t pay their workers enough to pay basic rent and subsistence, in the shape of welfare, while the companies concerned declare billions in profits and big payouts to shareholders, also beneficiaries of state charity?


Indeed...

How are any of those things inherently leftist? Leftism is not equivalent with intervention in economy.

in other news, scotland has a new hero


,a 14y old girl who took out a knife and a axe to fend off 2 immigrants that were following her and her 12y sister recording them.

She has been arrested, while the immigrants who illegally recorded her while stalking her haven't.


So I looked up the story and there is no mention of immigrants stalking her. Seems like a busy public street where the main concern was the girl brandishing a weapon and not creepy immigrants

I would be SHOCKED to learn that its a bunch of nonsense where an out of line white person does something criminal and it gets blamed on brown people erroneously

The Muslim angle appears to be coming exclusively from anti muslim twitter accounts

there is the video itself filmed by the migrant who talks with an extremely foreign accent (!!!!!). I never wrote anything about "muslims"

https://x.com/dotconnectinga/status/1960...

Notice how the weapons are shown by her only when the person filming comes very close to her !


Straight ****ing psychopath. Also, what's up with Nazis and their love of trash, kitsch art?


Why did she have a knife and a hatchet on her in the first place? Do you think its possible she instigated the confrontation?

If I were a muslim walking down the street and a psychotic 14 year old with two weapons started screaming at me and calling me slurs I'd probably record it too

Lol at "foreign accent (!!!!!!!!!)" btw

lol at the accent in which sense? how can you be a native speaking like that? and you keep saying muslim when i said immigrant. He could be hindu or atheist for what we know. Still not a native born , so an immigrant, yes because of the accent.

the video is made *by the stalker* , and he goes *toward the girls* . Is that the behaviour of someone who is being harassed? going toward them? are you freaking serious?


He was trying to get her to show the weapons she was sheepishly hiding behind her back

There isn't enough there to go one way or the other. My take is that she had the knife and hatchet on her for a premeditated reason and that doesn't lend to her pulling out the weapons in self defense


lol, at the end of the video she points the knife at the guy and then walks *toward* the camera, clearly not remotely in fear for her safety.

Carrying those offensive weapons on the street is a criminal offence in any case.


Luciom probably didn't understand the thick accent but hes repeatedly saying "show them live, show them live"

She calls them "****** bashers" which I'm fairly certain I've heard in a movie before

Yeah, this will probably shock some people (Luciom) but being an immigrant isn't illegal and threatening people (brandishing) with weapons is illegal
