A large majority of Europeans wish to maintain their culture. The rulers and immigrants don't. However, they are a small minority. When it gets bad enough, one way or another, the leaders will be replaced and the immigrants will be returned, jailed, or learn to adapt.

Thank you for the MHO.

We have refugees claiming asylum that can't go home or they will be killed but still are able to take holidays to their home country every year.

[Jersey2]

I have read that. They traced their vacations and most go back to their home country. It doesn’t make sense. I knew two people who left their countries due to threats to them from the government or other factions and both were terrified of going back. One had left 30 years prior and she wouldn’t even considered visiting family there as she thought the government would keep her there. She was from Ireland ironically enough given today’s situation and the other was from Haiti.

The one from Ireland would have been under no threat from any government Irish or British but likely under threat of being murdered or getting grievous badly harmy done to them (broken kneecaps) but could in fact move to mainland Britain.

The family told her she would be okay from the government but she was terrified. Now that is a refugee.

“Preservation” of specific culture isn’t really a thing I’m concerned about. “Culture” will always be fluid and in a constant state of change. Trying to keep anything “as it’s always been” is typically a fool’s errand🤷‍♂️

[Jersey2]

Too much change too fast in Europe. The immigrants mainly seem to want benefits, not to help build a country and integrate. Trouble is coming.

There is no ONE European culture. There are dozens of countries and multiple cultures within those countries and there always has been immigration from other regions and countries. This is nothing new.

What immigration does is bring new people and new perspectives to countries and their older cultures. Usually cultures blend. And there's nothing wrong with blending cultures.

European culture will change, just as American and other cultures change with the influx of immigrants. And most change from new people coming into a country strengthens and broadens its outlook. There will be some negatives, but the positives always outweigh them.

People who've left their original homes leave under duress, and are grateful to be somewhere where they can live, work and raise their families in a healthy atmosphere.

Change is difficult, but it is the only constant in life anywhere.

More importantly, why has the map put a penguin on my house.

[Jersey2]

‘Cause it’s your culture? Perhaps it is a very badly drawn Jackdaw.

I think that the people that live in European countries were sold a bill of goods about immigration. They see their countries getting destroyed before their eyes, They want their country back.

[Jersey2]

They want their country back but the German right wing politicians are dying, 7 at last count for the ones that prepared for the next election. UK wants to lower the voting age to 16 to get the votes.

Many people want change. But even with big wins for anti-immigration, the rest of the politicians won’t align with them so it has to be a massive wave of wins. This is unlikely and so the countries will fail. I am becoming anti-NATO if that happens.

[Miristheiss]

If, then.

If Europe doesn't wake up and stop it completely and start deporting them in mass then it will not.

[Jersey2]

I think they are crazy. They can still fix it but the left wing politicians won’t. They will fall from within and become the type of nation that these immigrants come from of course. The economy will tank as well.

[DrPepper12]

JFC you people are terrified of everything?

[Jersey2]

It is quite the demographic shift in a short timeframe. Already there are calls for Sharia Law. Do you think Octoberfest will be around in 50 years, I don’t. How about night clubs? Nope. What about women walking the streets at night in a short skirt? It is happening at lightening speed. London and Paris don’t look like they did even 10 years ago.

[DrPepper12]

And? So what

[Jersey2]

The so what is many Europeans are saying no to such change and I agree with them.

[lightbulb27]

Yes but they need to invest $100 billion to care for them ir toss some out

[Anonymous]

Europe will go extinct and the world would cheer for it

[Anonymous]

Doubtful

[Jersey2]

I tend to agree.
