One of the bigger problems I'm seeing in this is a wide scale refusal to assimilate within the country they're going to. And it's going to get worse. Look at the areas of Paris that have changed rapidly in the past couple years, where violence is increasing from people who want to impose Islamic law in areas where it has never existed. It's happening in London too - I'm sure some of you can speak in more detail about that.
Again, there are plenty who want a better life and will do anything to follow societal norms in host countries; they just want some respect for their own religion and way of life. But you're also seeing plenty of people totally refuse to assimilate in any way. Instead, they want to see longstanding customs in host countries change, or they want to purely cause havoc and abuse the generosity of those accepting them.
Like I said, I really think this is only going to get worse.
- you would think people who come from hell holes or the asshole of the planet would learn a lesson from their experience of shit going down the crapper fromyurimon
- their actions and belief systems.yurimon
- London is the most diverse city on Earth and nothing like the rest of the UK. It's almost a separate country within the UK in a lot of ways.fadein11
- And its Englishness, where it still exists seems almost fake / theme parkish.fadein11
- hard to quantify to what extent that's happening currently but it tends to be 2nd, 3rd generation migrants rather than new asylum seekers / refugees.Fax_Benson
- ..who are more likely to reject assimilationFax_Benson
- Also, the fact that Muslims statistically have higher birth rates will have a long-term negative impact on native cultures in those 2nd and 3rd generations.Continuity
- Not good.Continuity
- "negative impact" - so more brown people are a bad thing? you rather want it to be more white people?mekk
