What do you think about refugees?
I see bad news online about Middle Eastern refugees, I don't see the positives. I think it's okay to never accept them like Japan does compared to like EU/Canada. I wouldn't trust a single male without family coming here who would be shocked at how people act from their customs. My pah was a single male refugee but he never hits people and converted well into business. I'm having xenophobic thoughts this year from conservative youtube channel and reddit.
But this says EU doesn't really have a lot of refugees.

@fradddd: Oh, I meant that, since Germany is very anti-Nazi nowadays and is accepting of refugees. So if their government suddenly became more conservative, maybe the general public won't havce a good reaction to it, like the way many ppl have received Trump as president.
Trump's take on foreign polities aren't horrible in EVERY aspects, but it came in too sudden and in a very unforgiving (and sometimes stupid, i.e. that wall or whatever) manner. Japan is in the safe zone and I respect them for keeping it that way. They can simply slide away from all that hassle and criticism (except whale hunting).
@ibrahim65432: K, first thing is the Natives really didn't let the "refugees" from Europe in, they tried to fight them and then died of smallpox. Then depending on what European was there they were either killed, enslaved, or made friends and then died of illness.
Trump is restricting immigration so the refugees won't do the same thing with their MERS. /s
Second thing, I blame US/Russia's thing going on in the Cold War in the middle east. That's what pissed them off in the first place.
@antisenpai
20% of refugee goes to Europe and America. The other 80% goes to Africa, the very poor countries where people still live half naked. As a Muslim myself, it is a sad sight. People getting kicked out from their hometown is really sad. Not knowing and not having anyone to help them is also really sad.
Also, you need to understand that almost all middle eastern countries are in trouble. Iraq was just destroyed by America. Afganistan in war. Egypt just had a couple of revolution and the economy is destroyed. Libya, lets not even talk about it. Yemen, war. Sudan, civil war. Saudi Arabia is currently targeted by America to destroy next.
Today Middle East is considered the enemy. So, all the enemy of middle east is coming together to end Islam. Why? Because Islam is really powerful. During the Ottoman Turkey time, the empire lasted 700 years. No country had the power to interfere with Turkey. Europe was like a sheep and Turkey was like a tiger. However, this ended after World War 1. From then, the destruction of Islam started.
In my opinion, it would be nice to accept the refugees into the country. Our country was built by the same kind of people. People who were targetted by the government and had mass propaganda against them. If the Native Americans did not let the refugee from Europe in, they would have never been able to make America. However, it is not in my power to do anything. It is what I think. Our country was never democracy anyway. When everyone in the world opposed the Iraq War (80% of people) we still entered the Iraq War. So where is democracy? Protesting is only a waste of time. There has to be the right way to do this peacefully.
@staplemory no. Do you really hear people complain about and question Germany's political actions these days? I don't.
@redeyed pls. T.T
As long as they're legal through some type of visa I couldn't care less. It's illegal immigration from any country that's a problem.
@fradddd: I guess Germany suffers the same fate since right after WWII?
@beefly you forgot
4. the U.S. can't do anything without being questioned
@staplemory: Japan gets away with it because:
1. it's an island surrounded by countries who hate it
2. its expensive to live there
3. they dont need immigrants they have robots
Japan is not the same as US and Canada since they're (US and Canada) a country built on immigration. European countries however could be much more stricter on foreign policies than North American countries. But I guess many of them chose not to. But still, it's very likely that no other countries can compare to Japan when it comes to conservatism in a first-world country.
@piana: It's more like, all humans will die, kinda grim when you think of it.
OT: I think it's okay to have a more "secure" refuge system, I don't exactly agree with a need of banning them, but meh, it's not as if one country is all 196 of them, so I wouldn't exactly care much if some countries do.
as long as you keep accepting them we dont have to worry
i'd rather keep my country without any kind of trouble
We have enough issues with what's going on in America, we should close borders to refugees, get the hell out of the middle east and let them do what they want to one another, all we get out of this is more soldiers either dying or coming home with some sort of trauma, we should right our own people before we even consider attempting to right others.
@beefly such is reality
@greatbolshy: I'm more angry at the response of the locals than at the refugees. They act like wild animals then treat them like wild animals, not your adorable Pomeranian.
Why don't other middle eastern countries just take them in? Back during the Khmer Rouge people where going everywhere to find a place to call home. Vietnam Thailand Laos Australia anywhere that was accepting people.
I find it odd that refugees are reluctant to go to their neighboring countries for help.
There aren't any positives to accepting refugees, you're right. But the point is to avoid losses - not economic losses or losses in social stratification, but losses of human life. If you're a refugee, you're in a state where it's not possible for you to emigrate and have upward mobility.
Remember, upward mobility IS the American dream. I think. Maybe. Not sure.
i just like reading the stories about refugees banging and killing people in euro cuck countries and then being given a slap on the wrist because they don't know any better. "o u were given a room in this nice families house and then rapped and killed the 13 year old daughter? u didn't know any better its ok but don't do it again"
i'm talkin bout u sweden
Sometimes I wonder why do we still concern ourselves with the middle east. (I'm hoping despite Trump, clean energy will replace the need for fossil fuels, especially imported oil)
I think we should stop creating/funding non-sense wars and creating a refugee crisis to begin with.
