All i was saying was that, it's highly hypocritical, and ironic, that europeans love to complain, about "3rd worlders" destroying their "countries",
whilst, they were the ones who caused it in the first place.
Do you know of the term "cause and effect" i advise you to look it up.
so, cause and effect apply one way only? you don't care where most immigrants came from, whether they were ever colonized by western powers or not
(take the Ottoman Empire, lost some territories along the way for sure, but dissolved on its own, so how are the Turks migrating to Germany, the
Netherlands, etc connected to imperialism?)
'Europe' in this case is a purely geographic term. France had colonies, Britain had a lot more, but i wonder how many of them even view themselves as
Europeans in the way people on the continent might. these powers were rivals. Napoleon and the Nazis both sought a united Europe and while successes
mounted for a while, no such thing was achieved, eventually - maybe an omen for the future.
Your another clueless person who has no idea how the 3rd world came to be....it's because of those primitive non religious hut dwellers right.
No no...colonialism was good....
i haven't colonized anyone, have you? the people who are
still playing that game are the ones who propagandise 'opinions' such as yours that
we're all guilty by birth and supposed to shut our traps no matter what. In case you missed it, i specifically addressed the fate of natives, which i
think just might have a bearing on the topic of colonialism, so i'm having a hard time taking your hyperbole seriously.
Ohhhhh ignorance is bliss, i hate having my 189 I.Q sometimes, it's hard to live in peace with it, so many people around me are idiots who really have
no clue about history.
well, if you're being honest here, this is hardly an endorsement for the way people measure these things. tell me, Einstein, how many Colonies did
f-ex. Sweden have? should they, too have to pay for British and French colonialism because they joined the EU in 1995?
3rd worlders aren't the problem, it's europeans who are highly egotistical who are the problem being european isn't a skill, it's a #ing genetic
accident, so get over it ffs.
i agree with the last part, immigrants are being used just like everybody else. That said i fail to see how the forseeable destruction (couple of
decades) of most EU countries will benefit anyone, so i wonder why you seem so adamantly in favor of calm acceptance of that fate. make no mistake,
european people are far from the only ones with their stock of egoists and if the scenario unfolds as predictable, they will be far from the only ones
finding that, out the hard way.
maybe a new cause for renewed effect? maybe someone else will then need to be 'not jaded'. as i said, if colonialism can be enforced by BS talk and
corrupt gov'ts and enterprise, there will need to be a re-appraisal of talk itself and how we view corrupt gov't and enterprise...
