"The difficulty is that the EU opened their borders, but didn't want those arriving. The immigrants in theory can settle in the first country that they come too, but none of those countries want them, so they end up in France adjacent to the Channel. Once there, the channel is the solution to the problem that the EU created. The French therefore assist the immigrants to the UK and it then becomes our problem rather than one of the EU. Ingenious really." Nice story. Did you think that up all by yourself? I doubt it. Look at how many refugees/asylum seekers are accepted into other European countries compared to the U.K. The actual facts turn your theory into fantasy pulled straight from the right wing Nationslist chat forums. | |||

" Because newspapers like the Mail and Express have spent decades demonising foreigners. It is a very sad, but true fact that in the modern world the lower end of the demographic scale in this country has becomes less mobile, less factually informed, more poorly educated and less well off. It’s not hard to tell someone who has nothing that outsiders are to blame for their ills. Tell them long enough and they will believe it. We went through all of this with poison that led to the Brexit vote. | |||

" I don't want to put words in OPS mouth, but I think what he's getting at is why is right-wing used as a interchangeable term for racist when being right-wing strictly speaking is an economic position. You could be a right-wing libertarian who believes in absolutely no government interference in the economy and complete faith in a free market and believe that part of that completely free market is open borders. Maybe I'm completely misinterpreting what he's getting at though | |||

I suppose there are a few nutters about, just as there are some people that dislike anyone from abroad. I do find it odd that people on here blame Sun & Mail readers for everything, assuming they are thick (Sun) or elderly and gullible (Mail) people really do exaggerate the influence of newspapers that have a fraction of the readership compared to decades back. Or they are just pulling out a tired old cliche in n the belief it makes them look clever. Mind you, I’m also confused at the almost ‘cult like’ following that Johnson has with otherwise quite bright people. They feel he has been hard done by and ignore the constant lies and bullshit that he spouts. | |||

"Mexico US borders are inundated with immigrants. Texas governor sent out the national guard with orders to return immigrants to Mexican border. " Interesting, so does that mean Americans are xenophobic racists? China has an impact here. They have sucked all of the manufacturing jobs from most of the world. Add to that growing population in warmer countries and it’s a perfect storm . People with little hope and nothing to do. One of the saddest observations is the African guys in French, Spanish, Italian holiday resorts, dodging the police to sell fake goods & trinkets, all made in Asia, mainly China. Nothing made in their own countries. | |||

"Mexico US borders are inundated with immigrants. Texas governor sent out the national guard with orders to return immigrants to Mexican border. And why? because Biden has a record HIGH of stopping migrants at the border... It is the GOP trying to rewrite the narrative. isn't vetting process warranted yes or no? Strawman, vetting has nothing to do with Abbot Sending the national guard to return people to the border. it's is again I ask is vetting a better process than just letting immigration just happen . Vetting is the immigration that happens right now Vetting is a valid reason 9/11 ring a bell ? Send them back until you can verify is that so ridiculous? The 9/11 terrorist were from Mexico, Rather be safe then going blindly into a situation like that again. DHS snagged plenty of other foreign nationals coming thru the Mexican border have they not ?. Plenty more Americans get killed every year by other Americans with guns and died on 9/11. If protecting people is your biggest concern then immigration should be way way way down on your list.. Lol gun debate it always happens when I speak my mind. If you want that debate I will oblige. This is about immigration is it not ? Start a new thread if that is all you have Is guns." Im Scottish, we don't have guns. We got rid of them the first time someone shot up a school. Its a valid point. You mention immigration as security concern, so why is that element of security and even linked it to 9/11. Why is one type of security more important than the other if it isn't racially motivated? | |||

" Concern by itself doesn't make you racist. But the underlying reasons why you're so concerned probably have to do with who you imagine "Mohammed" is, which is getting in to racist territory. If it isn't racist, its just fucking weird to be that concerned with that the most popular baby names are. | |||

""Left wing" and "Right wing" are the most misused terms in political debates. I have used it myself. Traditionally, right wingers believe in less government intervention in economy and low taxes. Left wingers believe in more government intervention and high tax economy, the extreme version of which is socialism. People with concerns around immigration can be on either side. Denmark's ruling party is left wing but takes a strict stance on immigration. Tories are right wing while also taking a strict stance on immigration." This really annoys me too. People claiming racism is an exclusively Right-Wing or that right-wing and racist are interchangeable terms. A lot of Communist governments, which by default are as left-wing as its possible to be economically, had extremely racist policies | |||

The moment you take a stance on a single issue, you will be branded a snowflake or bigot by either side. I have been called both, the former when I was criticising the state of gun laws in the US and the latter when I pointed out the problems with a particular religion(I have criticism against all religions except Jainism which has been historically the most peaceful religion) | |||

"Well apparently when a a American speaks it's always a gun issues. So what countries take in the most immigrants? All for vetting them maybe we should start sending them over seas to the UK if they not vetted. Hell Biden flying them for free what is a couple extra hours to the UK."

When you make the argument about "security" and bring something like 9/11 into it then its easy to get there. Especially when the actual topic is around whether or not opinions are racially motivated. The question wasn't about guns per se, it was about whether the motivation is actually security; protecting American lives, or if the lives don't actually matter just as long as it isn't someone from an other country doing the killing. | |||

Its normal and is pretty much how regular conversation works. Just because you don't want it to apply here doesn't make it so. " Did I say you have to meet my standard ? I got jumped for guns in a immigration thread.All I asked is if it wouldn't it be more prudent to vet people so you don't have a tragedy. Do if you want the " gun' debate take it to the USA forums is that not fair? | |||

""Left wing" and "Right wing" are the most misused terms in political debates. I have used it myself. Traditionally, right wingers believe in less government intervention in economy and low taxes. Left wingers believe in more government intervention and high tax economy, the extreme version of which is socialism. People with concerns around immigration can be on either side. Denmark's ruling party is left wing but takes a strict stance on immigration. Tories are right wing while also taking a strict stance on immigration. This really annoys me too. People claiming racism is an exclusively Right-Wing or that right-wing and racist are interchangeable terms. A lot of Communist governments, which by default are as left-wing as its possible to be economically, had extremely racist policies I havent seen anyone claiming that here. If you want to you will find examples on both sides to suit any argument you want to make, but the balance of averages show right wing policies to be far more exclusionary than left policies. That brings racism with it. " That's the result of how political alignment has been shaped across population. There are two areas of debate when it comes to immigration - economic issues of how to sustain social welfare with refugees coming in and social issues around how to assimilate them culturally. Right wing conservatives are more concerned about the social issues. So right wing political parties stuck to that stance. Left wing political parties should logically be concerned about the economic issues. But most left wing parties commited political suicide by not talking about that. They took a pro-immigration stance to attract middle class liberals and lost working class people in the process.

"Well apparently when a a American speaks it's always a gun issues. So what countries take in the most immigrants? All for vetting them maybe we should start sending them over seas to the UK if they not vetted. Hell Biden flying them for free what is a couple extra hours to the UK. When you make the argument about "security" and bring something like 9/11 into it then its easy to get there. Especially when the actual topic is around whether or not opinions are racially motivated. The question wasn't about guns per se, it was about whether the motivation is actually security; protecting American lives, or if the lives don't actually matter just as long as it isn't someone from an other country doing the killing. Guns different thread . Post it in USA forum. I speaking immigration which is a major factor for both countries. Is it not ? Otherwise Op would have mentioned guns instead of immigration policy.

Do if you want the " gun' debate take it to the USA forums is that not fair?" I think that's maybe the problem, Nobody "jumped" you. Nobody made any commends about you personally but it feels a wee bit like mentioning it has made you take it personally? For what it's worth, assuming that economic migrants are more likely to be dangerous to anyone has been proven to be wrong over and over again, so believing it in 2022 is probably a wee bit racist. America, "the great experiment" is as im sure you know an entire nation bourne of immigrants. A few hundred years is all that separates you and them. | |||

Theres plenty of them, but u can't teach you anything you don't want to Google for yourself. The nazis weren't 'right-wing' though and you're just proving the exact point I made by bringing that up. A lot of the rhetoric they used to demonize the Jews was based on Jews having a disproportionate amount of wealth and how that should be redistributed to the German workers. Right-wing literally just means wanting as little government intervention as possible. The Nazis were the polar opposite of that. Ayn Rand who is one of the biggest 'right-wingers'ever wrote essays on why she hated the nazis, apart from the given fact she was Jewish. The nazis were racist and fascist but as I send thats not an interchangeable term with racist Simply not True, the Nazi's were fascists which by definition is Far Right Wing." How so there was Republicans in the US that went against that ideal . Until they were destroyed . So is that right wing in your eye against Nazi idealistic behavior? What is right again? | |||

Two people can be right wing and not like each other, even oppose each other. There is no rule that all people of the same political leaning have to like each other... | |||

"Why can't you all stay on topic. You got to deflect is it a social norm terre ? Make me understand. Because this administration wants us to follow your model. it's disheartening if we have to copy this creditability." Pointing out a flaw in an argument is not deflecting. it is pointing out a flaw in the argument. If you say if X then Y and X is incorrect no-one can accurately reply about Y until X is corrected | |||

" Left/Right definition itself came from 19th century politics where pro-socialists sat on the left side of the parliament and pro-free market politicians sat on the right. It's very recently that some people started attaching left wing to liberal social outlook and right wing to Conservative social outlook. Then where do right libertarians belong? They believe that a government should not intervene either in economic matters of in social matters. They believe in complete individual freedom for everyone. | |||

Each have what are considered left or right economic principles, but the terms themselves don't exclusively define economic policies. | |||

A lot of Communist governments, which by default are as left-wing as its possible to be economically, had extremely racist policies I havent seen anyone claiming that here. If you want to you will find examples on both sides to suit any argument you want to make, but the balance of averages show right wing policies to be far more exclusionary than left policies. That brings racism with it. That's the result of how political alignment has been shaped across population. There are two areas of debate when it comes to immigration - economic issues of how to sustain social welfare with refugees coming in and social issues around how to assimilate them culturally. Right wing conservatives are more concerned about the social issues. So right wing political parties stuck to that stance. Left wing political parties should logically be concerned about the economic issues. But most left wing parties commited political suicide by not talking about that. They took a pro-immigration stance to attract middle class liberals and lost working class people in the process. Denmark Social Democrats are one of the very few left wing parties who were shrewd enough to understand this and take the right stance. All valid points, based on economic reasons . How do you square any of this with the OPs concern that Mohammed is the most popular boys name in Britain His issue is obviously with cultural clashes. Whether he is right wing or left wing depends on his economic views. Left/Right is not just about economics Left/Right has always been about economics. The commonly agreed upon graph has two axes - left-right axe based on economic views and authoritarian/liberal based on social views. It's the political debaters on the internet who seem to attach left/right to social issues. There are right wing libertarians who are socially liberals and left wing authoritarians who are socially conservative." There are a number of models to describe left/right and sure a couple of them make left right about economics, but not all of them | |||

"OMG. For anybody still quibbling over what right wing is: just look it up. You'll see right wing politics is about more than just economics. " It is gaslighting to deflect an argument away from the actual argument. | |||

"So as to the OPs original statement .. don't be fools you never know what is coming and that intent by a open immigration policy. Protect your own to the best of your ability. Strangers miles away or kilometers away have 0 influence on you. Until a election. Then everyone goes ballistic. Take it from me. Family friends are more important than a collective mindset. Because who do rely on someone staring you wrong 3000 miles away or you inner circle. Choices immigration is a serious threat. Eh? eh what ? Explain? Is expected better from you ‘Staring you wrong 3000 miles away’ , eh? Steering you wrong? I'm guessing. Ah, is she referring to Trump in Mar a Lago don't give to shits about trump but keep going your embarrassing yourself." funny how you assumed that.yiur ridiculous entitled behavior is hilarious keep going . Again is this not a immigration thread or the I need to put the "American " in their place thread? You choose the latter why is that ? Just like many others . Here is a hint . We all global are we not? Your ignorance is astounding to prove your agenda. | |||

""Left wing" and "Right wing" are the most misused terms in political debates. I have used it myself. Traditionally, right wingers believe in less government intervention in economy and low taxes.

" Id argue that claiming they were anything other than fundamentally right wing is going down a scary white-washing and historically wrong path. There be apologetic stances. There are skinheads all over the world who can't wait to tell you how misunderstood Hitler was. Getting it right is really fucking important for exactly that reason. Arguing left/right politics as a purely economic spectrum is dead wrong and you won't find anyone who knows what they're talking about who agrees with you. | |||

Also, please consider stepping away from this thread. It seems to be upsetting you. " I've admitted I was wrong that nazis weren't right-wing economically. My point still stands that left and right are fundamentally economic terms and as I say the website I provided a link to proves that. If your apology is sincere rather than just sarcy I genuinely accept that and accept you personally didn't call me a nazi apologists. But the other guy can go fuck himself | |||

" Your grandmother would be ashamed mate. Classy comment " I stand by it. Anyone who went through the holocaust, or anyone with any common decency, would be appalled to hear someone argue the nazis were anything other than far right fascists. What good do you think youre doing by trying to present anything other than that? | |||

What good do you think youre doing by trying to present anything other than that? " I've presented my argument about 20 times already. I've already conceded they were right-wing economically now. But the main point I was making was that left and right are not blanket terms. They are economic terms. Stalin was as far left as you can be, because economically he was a communist. He still imposed a lot of racist and anti Semitic policies. Does that mean he was right-wing? No because the thing that defines someone as left or right is economics. Whether they're socially conservative, anti-immigration, pro gay marriage etc, is not a left or right issue, it's social conservative vs social liberal issue, or an authoritarian vs liberal issue. How hard is that to understand? | |||

How hard is that to understand?" Nazi Germany was for the most part a capitalist economy. They were on a war footing for a lot of their time in power obviously, but that alone should be enough to help understand that left/right fundamentally isn't a economic issue. Its just plain wrong arguing that it is, but you carry on doing so. Its such a bizarre argument and makes no sense when faced with the overwhelming evidence of every other fact you could have about what make up the political spectrum. | |||

Go have an iron Bru and a wank over Nicola Sturgeon now because this argument is done" What were you saying about classy comments earlier? Look, you said a stupid thing and you embarrassed yourself. Instead of understanding where you went wrong you doubled down on the ignorance and dug in deep to a wrong idea. Theres no measure by which you could consider the nazis to be anything other than right wing. The Right/left wing political spectrum is made up of a million different things, not just economics, which I guess is the biggest point youve missed. Saying it over and over again doesnt make it so, no matter how hard you want it to be. As an aside to this; For someone who claims to understand the trials of a persecuted people better than most, you sure went to the cultural stereotypes as an insult really fucking fast. Take a long hard look in the mirror mate, maybe neat time you won't make yourself look so disgusting. | |||
