Actually. Posts like this are bs. Germany does not keep race based statistics. What this probably is immigration background. Which is if you are born without or your parents don't have German citizenship.
So that includes the many white people that have also come here. Like white biritish guys for example or any other closeby European nation that have moved here.

Why do you have to save anyone? Asylum wasn't a status is most countries until the 1960s. -

@ThatCrazyDude that is part of the point though. They aren't allowed to work here. Talking about refugees at least.
It's different for regular legal immigration naturally.But refugees also don't even get language courses paid for in many cases. What do we think is going to happen if you give people shelter and free money.
That's why they are getting a payment card now instead of cash. So they can only buy basic stuff. Not funnel it home

@ThatCrazyDude so the way it is now. They come here. Live in their bubble. And then their kid hits the age of 6. Where you have to start going to school. That's a thing Germany has already.
And then you get a bunch of foreigner kids with barely a life and that only know their own language. And teachers that are super underprepared.Tiny kids can pick up languages a lot easier than 6+.
So if they learned German at 2 or 3. Then they could actually learn in school -

@silas yeah, they could. But then you blue the line between refugees that you accept for humanitarian reasons and migrants who don't really need saving, but simply exploit a loophole to get them EU paperwork

@ThatCrazyDude that's literally part of my point though. Because most of them will show up as German in that post. Because it's not a race based statistic.
If you are the kid of some worker that came here in the 70s and had German citizenship. Then they are German.Immigration background.

@silas well, if they're legal (naturalized citizens or even legal permanent residents who pay taxes and shit), that'd be fine with me. But illegals? C'mon! They have no right to be in your country to begin with, let alone draining the social services that should be exclusive for people who pay taxes, insurance and all. What is this, a hippie community where nobody needs to contribute but everyone gets to gig a tree?

@ThatCrazyDude Germany has been a hippie community for a lot of its history. Often capitalistic hippies. Make money and work. But we culturally really hate when bad stuff happens to anyone. I said it before. Inventors of the government social system.
But interesting how you interpreted this. I was jut pointing out that the official statistics are flawed, that people use them for bullshit social media posts. And that "race" as a concept is really touchy in Germany still.

@silas well, ya know... I'm kinda touchy on this one, since I live in Italy and all.And don't get me wrong - I'm not aiming to single out Germany or anything - Italy is even worse in this department. It just triggers me, ya know.
The way i personally see it, you wanna come over and live here,go for it. It's not like I'll ask you for your passport visa or anything like that. I don't give a shit about that. But for the love of god, at least learn the fuckin' language and have an honest job,ya know -

@silas dafuk you're even talking about? I've been to Berlin - there's literally more Turks there than there's Germans and it was like that for decades.
Well, ok, I suppose Turks are technically white, but you know what I'm talking about. Germany's dead, man! -

@Humpleupagus @silas yeah, man, I personally tend to agree - the way i see it, if the population of a country allowed it's own country to become an unlivable shithole, they get what's coming and it's all on them. But since the "laws l" are what they are, at the very least we should make a distinction there

@Humpleupagus @silas also, don't tell me how your shithole-country way of doing things is superior to my way of doing things even though you literally just escaped your shithole-country because as you claim, living there was impossible. Seriously. Am I being unreasonable?

@Humpleupagus @silas that being said though, it's not like I have anything against foreigners. Like I've said before, if you want to come to Italy, settle here and all, I'll have no issues with you. I'll even give you a bunch of fee tips and shit, and wish you well. Just don't expect me to cheer for you if you expect handouts, free healthcare, food stamps, free daycare and all the stuff that actual taxpayers pay to have. You wanna be a parasite, be a parasite, as is your right, but not here.
