- gradus_ad 2mo agoThe simple truth many have come to realize is a European leadership that insists mass migration is not a problem and head-in-the-sand denies the critical importance of cultural unity and shared identity for the maintenance of stable and liberal democracies is a much clearer and present danger than Russia. War a nation can recover from, but from an erosion of cultural unity and shared identity it cannot.
- bdangubic 2mo agoCultural unity and shared identity is cause of many (many) wars…
- Lumich 2mo agoThey're not. Rather, the organizers of war – typically rich and powerful people in or close to London or Washington – use their propaganda networks to play these popular cards of culture and identity. Don't confuse the cause and the means.
- bdangubic 2mo agoyea, you are right, I recall from my high school education when Hitler came to Washington and then London, fun times

- ves 2mo agoRemind us what happened last time Europeans got too obsessed with cultural unity and shared identity?
- gradus_ad 2mo agoAre you saying the only conceivable policy positions are genocide and unchecked migration?
- ves 2mo agoI like that you said genocide and not me. But what I like more is enjoying the long slide into irrelevancy of opinions like the one you expressed in your original comment. I look forward to the day we can have constructive discussions about capital investment and migration which feature no mention of such puerile and ignorant notions of ethnicity and nationalism.
- gradus_ad 2mo agoIrrelevancy? The opinions I expressed are ascendent and accelerating across the Western world. Constructive, reasoned discussions on migration are precisely what have not occurred due to the dominant ideology stifling all contrary opinion.
- bryanlarsen 2mo agoAfter all Canada, Australia and New Zealand are such hot-beds of crime and mayhem; we should avoid following their example as much as possible.
- gradus_ad 2mo agoTheir experiments in cultural erosion are merely a few decades old, and accelerating only recently. You're basically pointing at a smoker who started a year ago and concluding because they don't have cancer yet cigarettes don't cause cancer.
- bryanlarsen 2mo agoThose three have been letting in large numbers of people from outside the UK for at least 125 years, not a few decades.

- seabrookmx 2mo agoThe war they didn't start? Typically when there's a clear aggressor who initiates a conflict to grab land and resources, you blame them.
- nullorempty 2mo agoWell, the USA too.
- azan_ 2mo agoDidn't russia attack Ukraine?
- nullorempty 2mo ago[flagged]
- azan_ 2mo agoYes, in this case one side (russia) attacked other (Ukraine), which is just defending itself. It's very clear who is the aggressor here. This entire conflict could be prevented if russia did not attack, that's it.

- azan_ 2mo agoOk let's work from the basics. Please answer this question - is russia the aggressor in this war?
