Equality for all – that is diversity.

No wonder conservatives hate the concept of diversity. They want to be the protected class and unlevel playing field to prevent “others” having the same opportunities they do.

There is something wrong in an organization if there is no diversity. It means it is discriminating.

The question itself whether diversity is strength or not is wrong. It is like asking whether everyone having the same opportunities at workplace or anywhere else is a strength or not.

Equal opportunity to everyone results in diversity.

The opposite of diversity is inbreeding with weakens the stock.  I wonder if that is what happened to Trump, why he and his family are such fucking idiots.

The champs at inbreeding are Muslims. Check it out.

Speaking of immigrants, is the experience in Europe one which finds that diversity is a strength?

Pew Research Center

July 12, 2016
In views of diversity, many Europeans are less positive than Americans

 

The surge of refugees to Europe has helped make it a region of increasing cultural diversity and foreign-born populations, just as immigration to the United States has pushed its foreign-born share to near record levels. But a new Pew Research Center surveypaints a picture of a Europe that is far less positive about what greater diversity means for many of its countries.

The most common view among the 10 European countries surveyed is that cultural diversity is neither a plus nor a minus in terms of quality of life. In no nation does a majority say increasing diversity is a positive for their country. At most, roughly a third in Sweden (36%), the UK (33%) and Spain (31%) describe growing racial, ethnic and national diversity in favorable terms.

By contrast, more than half in Greece (63%) and Italy (53%) say that growing diversity makes their country a worse place to live. Roughly four-in-ten Hungarians (41%) and Poles (40%) agree.

Europe is doing fine. France needs to treat it’s immigrant French equally however. There are some far right fucks over there too who have that fear of diversity.

There isn’t going to be a homogeneous lily white society here in US. There never was and never will be. Immigrants are more educated and more hardworking than the born and raised here.

If you don’t want refugees, stop starting wars and regime changes. Stop bombing those nations too. Let’s not create havoc and terror among the people there on orders from MBS and Netanyahu.

No wars, no refugees.

No wars, no refugees. Let’s stop starving people with sanctions in trying to wreck economies of nations too.

JULY 11, 2016
Europeans Fear Wave of Refugees Will Mean More Terrorism, Fewer Jobs

Sharp ideological divides across EU on views about minorities, diversity and national identity

BY RICHARD WIKE, BRUCE STOKES AND KATIE SIMMONS

The recent surge of refugees into Europe has featured prominently in the anti-immigrant rhetoric of right-wing parties across the Continent and in the heated debate over the UK’s decision to exit the European Union. At the same time, attacks in Paris and Brussels have fueled public fears about terrorism. As a new Pew Research Center survey illustrates, the refugee crisis and the threat of terrorism are very much related to one another in the minds of many Europeans.

But terrorism is not the only concern people have about refugees. Many are also worried that they will be an economic burden. Hungarians, Poles, Greeks, Italians and French identify this as their greatest concern. Sweden and Germany are the only countries where at least half say refugees make their nation stronger because of their work and talents. Fears linking refugees and crime are much less pervasive, although nearly half in Italy and Sweden say refugees are more to blame for crime than other groups.

BTW – No European country accords citizenship based simply on the fact that a person was born in the territory of that state.

Muslims killing Muslims has become almost a sport among themselves. Blaming the West generally and the USA specifically is bullshit rendered by apologists who are most likely ashamed.

Every conflict is either directly caused by US or by Israel or Saudis. Every conflict and a problem in ME is due to direct or indirect involvement of these three countries or the West in general if it is North Africa.

And Trump, MBS and Netanyahu are the three most evil and destructive men in the world today. The three amigos are the biggest assholes of our current times.

It is disgusting and dangerous to even ask the question IMO.

Because one of the two possible answers will lead to ethnic cleansing.

People like to hang out with their own. Commonality is the building block of groups.

Waves of people viewing our Southern border are looking for a better life. They are first and foremost economic refugees. Every other asinine explanation you woosies put forth is bullshit.

Read up. Educate yourself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nationalism

 

Nationalism is a political, social, and economic system characterized by the promotion of the interests of a particular nation, especially with the aim of gaining and maintaining sovereignty (self-governance) over the homeland. The political ideology of nationalism holds that a nation should govern itself, free from outside interference and is linked to the concept of self-determination. Nationalism is further oriented towards developing and maintaining a national identity based on shared, social characteristics, such as culture and language, religion and politics, and a belief in a common ancestry.[1][2] Nationalism, therefore, seeks to preserve a nation’s culture, by way of pride in national achievements, and is closely linked to patriotism, which, in some cases, includes the belief that the nation should control the country’s government and the means of production.[3]

Sounds very creepy and far right extremist. And very hypocritical.

At this point in my life I couldn’t care less about Trump.

Congress after today? It won’t change anything. Each side will still have the ability to stop any legislation by the other side. So instead of pissing into the wind over Republicans vs Democrats I have preferred of late to just concentrate on aggravating you.
