| numonex said: Conservative German Chancellor preaching nationalism and racist values. Scape goating immigrants and using them as a political football for cheap political point scoring. Lowest common denominator push polling to divide and conquer society. Immigrant scape goat is a wedge issue that is often used by populist politicians. This could get very nasty by using the immigrants as the scape goat to blame for Germany's problems. Segretationist policies of apartheid: Zimbabwe and South Africa do not work. Assimilation policies forcing people into adopting your way of life do not work either. Multiculturalism and allowing the different cultures to live freely within society within the laws of a nation work better than the other cultural policies. |
Here is a question for you, suppose a socially progressive state had a very strong economy and was attracting migration from far less progressive states and these new migrants were very homophobic, racist and "anti-progressive" in values; would it be wrong for people in this state to suggest that these individuals adopt more progressive values or return to the state they came from?
Why is it wrong and racist when it is happening in a country and the homophobic and racist individuals are immigrants?
Isn't it racist to allow someone to have (otherwise) unacceptable views and behaviors simply because of the colour of their skin?
