If you look at the percent of whites that's not anywhere close to true.
Wait, you consider Denmark, Switzerland, Iceland, Norway, Finland, Netherlands, NZ, Sweden, Israel, Austria, etc. to be "diverse"? Were they miserable places to live until the last decade of non-European immigration? Of course not, they've been leading the world in quality of life for half a century.
They were always happy and safe. The effects of mass immigration are just starting to show. For example, in Sweden the police advise women to not go outdoors alone: http://newobserveronline.com/swedish-women-dont-go-outside/ http://newobserveronline.com/swedish-women-dont-go-outside/
Almost half are afraid to go outside after dark now: http://www.breitbart.com/london/2016/03/04/scared-sweden-almost-half-of-women-afraid-to-be-out-after-dark-in-europes-rape-capital/ http://www.breitbart.com/london/2016/03/04/scared-sweden-alm...
In an Orwellian twist, the Swedish government now refuses to provide crime statistics for immigrants: http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/01/18/sweden-blocks-data-crime-immigration/ http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/01/18/sweden-blocks-dat...
Such progress!
- disordinary 10y agoYou think European settlement of New Zealand and Jewish settlement of Israel were not mass migration?
- bluthru 10y agoYes! It's always bad! What's happening in Palestine is unacceptable and it's very obvious what Israel is doing. Same goes for China and Tibet.
- disordinary 10y agoSo you're saying the mass migration of Europeans to America was bad as well? Glad we've cleared that up.
- Arizhel 10y agoBad for whom? I don't think you're going to find any intelligent people who will agree that mass migration of Europeans to the Americas was a good thing for the people living in the Americas at the time. It was a complete disaster for them. What exactly is your point here? Same thing for New Zealand and Australia: those migrations have not been beneficial to the Maoris or Aborigines.
- disordinary 10y agoSo you're saying that because you took what you wanted now no one else is allowed any? That is called pulling up the ladder behind you. It is extremely selfish. I also wouldn't group the Maori with Aboriginies or the Indigenous peoples of America, sure European settlement was bad for them and we as a society are still struggling with the fallout of that, but Maori were always equal under law and could vote from the first elections. Where land was taken by force the government has now redressed the damage and either returned the land, equivalent land, or money and assets of equivalent value. The American government on the other hand took trillions of dollars worth of assets from the Native American tribes and forced them to live in sub-par reservations, some are still living in third world conditions, they couldn't vote until the 1960s in some states. That is not the way for a civilised society to run.

- disordinary 10y agoSorry if I misunderstood, I thought it was implied that you were defending the racists from earlier in the conversation.
