Allowing an islamic cancer to metastasize in their home country is a form of self-flagellation in a vain attempt to assuage their internal pain.
The old song from Mikado is right on about some people, Upper/Upper Middle Class Coasties are insulated from the downside of third world immigration and Islamic Immigration in particular, while reaping the benefits of low wages, stuffed rentals, and eliminating "sauciness" of the lower classes. I would call it flagellation of "old, evil racist and religious (Christian only) America".
That is why the Two Scoops Refugee Resettlement program requiring refugees to be resettled in communities where the median home price is over $300k and the schools are in the top 10% of the state is necessary.
Bethesda, MD, Manassas, VA and Orange County can afford the increased burden of housing and schooling immigrants, not Twin Falls, ID or Buffalo, NY.
Let the Neolib/con Coasties of affluent areas enjoy the diversity also. Not just rustbelt or rural communities. It'll be so culturally enriching when the group of Somali Teens walk Hannah Merriweather and Sarah Silverstein back through the Greenbelt Bike Trail from School! Nothing says experiencing different communities then driving past all the smoking Pakistani men hanging out in front of the new affordable housing just across from Willow Downs Estates, where luxury townhomes start from $500k, within minutes of the Riverwalk featuring Benihana and Banana Republic!
Remember, Diversity is good, just like beneficial Corn Sugar, which is harmless in moderation..
When you have suffered with Communism, and watched the misery and corruption of having to answer to a powerlord, then you rise up and seize your freedom and destiny through blood sweat and tears.... you aren't going to be handing it over to some layabout, entitled migrants who want everything for free while they demand you change your values for THEIR whims. Fuck that.
The reason we're so kumbaya in the West is we've had generations of snowflakes that have never felt the pain of war or sacrifice, and have been handed participation trophies.
Prime Minister Robert Fico's government has said Islam has no place in Slovakia.Parliament adopted a bill sponsored by the Slovak National Party (SNS), junior member in Fico's coalition, that requires a religion to have at least 50,000 members, up from 20,000, to qualify for state subsidies and to run its own schools.
When Eastern Europeans pass laws like Slovakia or Hungary, Kaiserina Merkel and her Chambermaid Macron issue threats and accuse Vladimir Putin of being behind it all
They are very quick to blame Putin but never blame Islam for Terror Attacks.
C'mon. If you were taking only 2 classes but the rest of the students were taking 5, it is not that hard to do better than them.
And the Lithuanians
Lithuania once ruled over Poland and modern day Belarus and even parts of Ukraine, I think
HELSINKI, March 15 (Reuters) - Finland’s social and healthcare systems still need reforming to ensure the sustainability of its public finances, Bank of Finland governor Olli Rehn said on Friday, a week after the failure of its health reform plan led the government to quit.
The coalition government resigned a month ahead of a mid-April general election, saying it could not deliver on the healthcare reform package, its key policy and widely seen as crucial to long-term fiscal security.
“The collapse of the structural reform of the social and healthcare (systems) is of course very troublesome from the point of view of fiscal sustainability,” Rehn told a news conference in Helsinki.
“The problem itself, (the need for) better and democratic healthcare as well as consolidation of public finances, has not disappeared.”

A once powerful demographic group is losing ground in American politics. For most of the countrys history, white Christian Americathe cultural and political edifice built primarily by white Protestant Christians set the tone for our national conversations and shaped American ideals. But today, many white Christian Americans feel profoundly anxious as their numbers and influence are waning. The two primary branches of their family tree, white mainline and white evangelical Protestants, offer competing narratives about their decline. White mainline Protestants blame evangelical Protestants for turning off the younger generation with their anti-gay rhetoric and tendency to conflate Christianity with conservative, nationalist...
