An immigrant, cool, which part of Somalia do you come from? I am very impressed that you adapted so well from being an illiterate sheep herder to a highly structured western society, and was even able to start your own company. Good job.
Joking aside. Highly skilled workers like yourself immigrating isn't the problem. People aren't racists, but they are also not blinded by ideology like people on the left (be kind to others) and right (free movement of people) who, for different reasons welcome unlimited immigration.
- michael_dorfman 18y agoPeople aren't racists? You sure about that? I don't remember saying anything about "unlimited" immigration, by the way...
- gahahaha 18y agoPeople who are anti-immigration are not necessarily racists, just like people who criticize Israels actions aren't necessarily anti-Semites. I personally feel that that type of argumentation poisons the discussion.
- michael_dorfman 18y agoWow, where did that come from? I'm not saying that all people who are "anti-immigration" are racist-- but some of them certainly are. I've seen my share of racism, without question. In Norway, there is serious under-employment-- it is not possible to be "against immigration" per se; it's all a matter of degree. Over-simplifying the positions ("people are not racist";"unlimited immigration") doesn't do the discussion any favors, either.
