   Immigration is a positive force when immigrants are obliged to assimilate into their new host culture. This includes things like following the new cultural norms and leaving behind practices that are abhorrent to the host culture, while still bringing new ideas and perspectives. It also includes learning the local language, which is critical for assimilation.

   This melding of new and old is what creates the good kind of diversity that makes a culture stronger through evolution. Like every evolutionary process, it is necessarily slow, as people take time to adjust to new norms.

   Immigration without assimilation, on the other hand, creates enclaves of a foreign culture within the original. This is the bad kind of diversity. These incompatible cultures, in proximity with no geographic boundaries, lead to strife, crime, violence, and eventually cultural breakdown.

   Importing too many immigrants in a short period of time - or worse, actively pandering to the foreign culture in these enclaves - removes the incentive to assimilate, virtually guaranteeing this result.

     Why don't you move to literally any brown country so you can get the maximum benefit of diversity?

     @wjmaggos I talk about cultural evolution, and you make it about Trump. I guess that's the default Democrat party line these days.

     there's always good and bad to immigration. and immigrants have always created their own little neighborhoods that somewhat resisted assimilation. I know. my dad's parents both came over from Greece. we can do a better job on the issue (as the compromise bill that Trump pushed Republicans to stop supporting would do) but Trump is a fucking demagogue and he's running on fear and lies. what's currently happening is not fair to border communities but it's also not a threat to America.

     you're talking about immigration and clearly more concerned about too much of it happening too fast than wanting more of it. afaik you're not an expert on the issue and bringing it up because it's a political issue in the news.

     it has been Trump's number one issue since it helped him win the primary in 2016. you believe his lies re 2020 and he is now lying about Haitians eating pets. some of his supporters are lying about apartments being taken over.

     so yeah, I'm connecting the dots.

     @bot @ryan @wjmaggos

     It is supposedly a Haitian immigrant cutting to a pet. I hear that they don't necessary have to be eating them since they actually use pets in voodoo rituals which is common in their home country.

     @Furgar @ryan @wjmaggos @bot I don't care about their backwards culture. They don't belong here.

     I don't think they are subhuman, it's just part of their culture.
