He should've said integration is a tremendous success over there without posting a source and he wouldn't be banned.

They simply didn't want their members to read such statistics.

You know what's funny: I was going to say that facts don't matter, and all that matters is that your posts support the idea that minority or 'underprivileged' groups are suffering at higher rate, and that said suffering is the fault of white men. However, that posts basically says that, it says immigrants are suffering more because white people didn't integrate them properly - he still got banned, because he said it could never have worked, thus deflecting blame away.

WTF, he's getting banned for speaking facts. This issue is known and mentioned in the local media outlets that immigrants here are hit harder by the virus.

This thread is for laughing at them, not understanding them. Be happy you can't follow the logic of an angry 50 IQ minority title collector mod.

Its puzzling but he says immigration fails, and had no chance of being a success. They likely see this as a jab the 2015 crisis.

Poster also didn't state he was part of the minoritty, which would've been oppression points.

Poster failed the Ree exam.

It doesn't matter what the facts are, just what people in positions of power feel is the truth.

Poster should have accused Sweden of it than present facts. We all know accusations are proof. Silly poster not knowing this.

I mean, I understand 2020 has been a steaming pile of shit and it's going to reflect how people post and act, but like you said it's at a really unhealthy state over there. I barely ever browse their off-topic section anymore because it's even worse than browsing social media with how much anger and vitriol gets posted on a daily basis. Not sure who in their right mind would browse that shit for hours on end.

The rule there is that immigrants are above any and all criticism despite bringing an entirely different culture and social norms with them.

Also the idea of “ethnic Swedes” is racist at worst because they should just open themselves up to unlimited foreign colonization and at best because even Europe should adopt an American attitude toward immigration.

 

[Dick Jones]

Yep, one on the off topic asking does jumping to your death hurt?

Jumping from a bridge in Sheffield, England? Claimed he was abusive and later mentions he was abused for a year by a family (using the word a mormon family not my family) in Ohio. What he did is never explained, usually people clarify that shit. Who goes from being abused in Ohio for a year to living in Sheffield? It feels like a cry for attention to me, it wrapped up super quick.

Sweden needs to be more like France, anyone who went there conquered that. Too soon? I kid any French people who thought I was serious. I love you all.

 

[#Phonepunk#]

Thing is they are right. Immigration caused by the War on Terror has fucked up many countries. It exacerbates problems when you have tens or hundreds of thousands of new people to take care of.

I’m not sure about their statistics but if it has been hitting low income minority Americans the hardest then it seems reasonable it would hit Sweden in a similar way.

Of course it is never about facts, if they disagree they will shut any inquiry down. They are anti intellectuals masquerading otherwise

Just even skirting the subject of immigrants, culture clashes and yearly quota has been extremely taboo here. Only recently have the main political parties started talking about these issues more openly as we've seen increased segregation, ghettoisation, criminality and extreme violence (such as stabbings and shootings which used to be much rarer) but also as a new extreme right party has grown noticeably and thus bringing these issues to the light. It's not like the whole country is on fire or anything but certain areas have really gotten worse.

A Black Batman whose parents were murdered by nazi cops makes so much sense. It needs to happen. Especially now post-George-Floyd.

Batman's identity is that of a vigilante who is fueled by his parents' murder. Until now, it's always (or mostly always?) been a white guy who was angry at criminals because his parents were killed by petty criminals. The spin on that tale whereby Bruce Wayne is a Black man whose parents were...

Batman is a crime fighter.
He's not suppose to be a guy who points guns at pregnant women.

By the way, why is changing the race of an established superhero ok? Do they want to see a White Man play Black Panther or wouldn't they scream racist?

 

[jason10mm]

I dont see how that story is any different than any other batman origin. Gotham is corrupt, it doesn't need white supremacist cops because it is already mostly a ACAB situation.

And how exactly is ghetto or middle class Batman gonna get a batcave and all those wonderful toys?

Ugh, now.it makes me wonder if we are gonna see some sort of cringe level DC or Marvel diorama of all the white superheroes kneeling before the handful of black ones.

It’s not that the company’s aren’t courageous enough FFS. Companies have shown us millions of times that they are completely willing to sell out on everything they believe in to make $0.03 more than they did before. The problem it’s a stupid not thought idea by some white CISHET manlet who wants to virtue signal so someone can acknowledge his existence for once.

also stop misusing the word Nazi to cover everything you don’t like. Expand your vocabulary

It all comes down to "white privilege" apparently.

Lady Antebellum changed their name; what they didn't say is that they claimed the name of a black artist without even asking her. (UP: lawsuit filed)

[recma12]

I’m not sure about their statistics but if it has been hitting low income minority Americans the hardest then it seems reasonable it would hit Sweden in a similar way.

I'm not from Sweden but Germany has a fairly similar asylum policy and demographic makeup.
And yes, low income "Germans" are also hit the hardest.

Migrants live (on average) in smaller apartments with more people, plain and simple.
Refugee camps are naturally a dream scenario for any virus.
BUT just by driving around town here, I noticed that there was a lot more activity on the streets in migrant areas and mosques were open etc. Lot of them don't even speak German, others just don't care.

I guess the only thing banworthy about his post is the fact that the poster blamed the high infection rate among migrants on them not following the rules. Don't think you can prove that.

We have more migrants than Sweden here and the virus is almost eradicated.

Honestly think the Swedish situation is so bad because Sweden is "ERA, the country".
There really isn't a more cuck-SJW place in the world.

 

[Ionian]

We have more migrants than Sweden here and the virus is almost eradicated.

LMAO!

How in the hell has it been eradicated?

 

[recma12]

How in the hell has it been eradicated?

Early lockdown, mass testing, strong police monitoring and mandatory hygiene policies.
Think there are only 7k active cases atm.

 

[Ymir]

LMAO!

How in the hell has it been eradicated?

He’s saying it’s almost non existent in Germany which is true. They have 400 new cases daily in Germany currently and about 6000 current cases of infection total for the entire country.

 

[Ionian]

That's fair enough, but eradicated can't be true as more cases may arise.

I get the point though, no offense to you recma12

 

[recma12]

Ionian
Yeah, the term eradicated was wrong I guess.
My point is, Sweden got fucked by their hippie-holier-than-thou-Greta-cuck attitude, not by the migrants (this time).

It's no secret that many of the 2015 refugees are shitheads who don't follow rules, that's why we had the police on the streets. The lockdown was no joke, people were put behind bars for hanging out in the streets. Bars lost their license for opening up etc.

Sweden was like "Please stay home, but if you want to be outside, we can't stop you. Kind regards, your government".
And now they act surprised that Somalis and Syrians who are used to getting beaten and teargassed by police don't take it seriously lol

To be fair, the Swedish authorities were smart regarding this. They CAN'T stop all immigrants (who does not respect police officers) from being outside if they want to. And they know that.

The police are constantly monitoring any far right/Nationalist gathering and do head counts to see that there are not more than 50 people gathered (they have made any gathering larger than 50 forbidden) and also check cafés, restaurants and bars but they kneel in front of the BLM demonstration we had here even though there were thousands of people there. Because what is the worst possible thing that can happen to a state? Appear powerless.
So they pick their fights wisely.

lol he just ’reporterted’ on how the situation have been. Its a fact that the mortality rate between migrants in poorer neighborhoods have been higher.

And yes that is in parts due to large portions of refugees here refuse to learn rules and language and keep on living with the same backwards culture as in their home countries. That is also a goddamn fact. That’s been reported on again, again and again here but people refuse to listen to those reports same as on era thinking it’s fucking ‘racist’ to report how things are.

Yeah i guess people on ERA are as goddamn dumb as the ones who think as you cross that magical barrier between denmark and sweden people suddenly become swedish and are enlightened. Buuut that really is not what happens and it is thanks to people who are in charge don't want to deal with the problems because it is 'racist' apperantly to even acknowledge there is one to begin with.

I shouldn't go on a tirade here but i have been so fed up with our migrant policies for over a decade know and it pisses me off almost daily lol. And i have friends from Iran for example who thinks the same exact way, only difference is that they bothered to intigrate into society, learn swedish and get a job.

 

[cormack12]

They're idiots - the guy is pointing out that allowing swarms of immigrants and then situating them in the same area's will lead to insular communities and not integration. This will mean language learning will not transferred as well, mixing with people and communities where opportunity can be generated etc. Bristol had the same realisation after losing the capital of culture (more holistically, not just focused on immigrants): https://www.ach.org.uk/news-and-features/bristol-diverse-not-integrated-0
