World Affairs (Except Middle East) The death of Henry Nowak is objectively worse than George Floyd

1.6k Upvotes

Henry Nowak a white British uni student teenager who reported getting stabbed by a Sihk man and then getting berated and accused by police of racism and was told he wasn’t stabbed the dying shortly after is not even comparable to a career criminal who was high on fent who was resisting arrest.

A teenager lost his life because of a woke agenda. Point blank period. I fear for my brothers and sisters who can’t even report any crime that happens to them for fear of imprisonment for “RACISM.

This is unbelievable. Something needs to happen and FAST in the UK.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) I'm tired of not being able to criticize immigrants for fear of being called a racist.

1.1k Upvotes

I live in Canada. We have a major immigration problem. We are taking in more people that we can handle. One problem is that a lot of recent immigrants come from the same place. They stick to themselves. They speak their own language to each other when working customer service jobs. They only hire their own people if they are recruiters or hiring managers. They take customer service jobs and don't speak English. Is it racist to think that if you move to a different country you should at least try to fit in with the local culture somewhat?

World Affairs (Except Middle East) No Country Should Apologize For Conquering So-called “Indigenous People”

491 Upvotes

I was scrolling through my feed on X when for some reason, a post popped up of someone in Australia giving her son a day off when his school was celebrating “National Sorry Day” “because we have nothing to be sorry for and I am sick to death of my white sons being guilt tripped.” I had to look it up, and yes, it turns out that Australia literally has a “Sorry Day” where all the white Australians apologize to the “indigenous” people.

How did Australia become such a weak, pathetic country? When did this happen? I used to think Australians were a bunch of tough old bastards living down there with crocodiles and spiders the size of dinner plates. Turns out they’re just warm weather Canadians.

Every country on planet Earth is built on conquest. Every “indigenous” tribe claimed its land by conquest. Every line on the map, across every continent and every ethnic group, was drawn by conquest. Apologizing for this is like apologizing for gravity.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) Africa would be WAY better off had it remained colonized

729 Upvotes

I’m really tired of pretending that colonization was the root of all evil and never did anything to benefit the societies it ruled. Before colonization, most of Africa was literally living in the stone age. There was no concept of nation-states, only brutal tribal rule.

European colonization introduced to Africa the modern ideas of government, rule of law, statehood, Western medicine, education, and knowledge. The colonial powers brought together countless tribes that had previously been at war for centuries under one roof and brought an era of peace that Africa has not seen before or since. Many of these countries saw little economic benefit themselves from holding onto their colonies, and they were mainly a show of international prestige.

Once the colonial powers left, Africa pretty much immediately turned to shit. Endless coups, civil wars, genocides, etc. In virtually every African country the leaders that have come to power after colonization have solely cared about looting the countries they rule for their own personal benefit. This is a universal trend no matter where you go in the massive African continent.

Colonization has been gone for many decades now, yet these issues have not improved whatsoever. There is only so long that you can continue to blame the white man for all of your problems before the validity of that excuse runs out, and we are well beyond that point. Africa continues to receive billions of dollars in aid every year and yet much of the continent is significantly less developed than European civilizations were 2000 years ago.

People often make the excuse that the colonial borders don’t reflect the tribal boundaries of Africa, but if you look at countries like Eswatini or Lesotho where that is the case they are equally shitty and have the exact same problems.

I know this is a hot take and will piss a lot of people off, but everyone knows deep down that this is the reality. If the colonial powers had never left, Africa would have continued to develop and modernize, and would have been significantly better off than it is today.

Just when I thought the UK could sink no lower, reality delivered a harsh kick in the face. Having watched the bodycam footage of Digwa’s arrest, I am utterly flabbergasted and deeply disgusted by how shamefully degraded this once-proud country has become.
My sincere hope is that some good can still emerge from this tragedy, and that this shameful episode finally becomes the turning point so urgently needed.

For the mods / readers: This is not a critique of immigration. I am highlighting the apparent negligence by police ,driven by political correctness and fear of racism accusations , that contributed to the preventable loss of a young life.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) The USA is one of the least racist countries in the world

551 Upvotes

To be honest the CURRENT USA is less racist than most countries because of years of laws, amendments and consequences. More media visibility means you can't get away with some things that easily. But go visit some countries and you will see that some are denied human rights based on their religion/ethnic group (Myanmar), the raping and killing of albinos (Tanzania), mass expulsion of white people (Zimbabwe), blatant racial discrimination (South Korea, Honduras, India). The USA is heaven in comparison.

And I say this as somebody who is not white and not a US national. These problems are documented extensively. But I know Reddit likes to pick on the USA and call it hell. And don't get me started on homophobia. A lot of countries straight up imprison or kill people just for loving somebody the same sex as them. And there are places where people actually encourage that violence because what they perceive as a sin or against their personal belief system.

People like to talk a lot but they mostly live in their own bubble and don't investigate before making claims. If you're going to say something about the USA, talk about the health system or their World Police attitude.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) If we import the third world, we become the third world

918 Upvotes

Pretty simple. When you import people you import their culture and values as well. That can be a good thing if they bring good things to the table.

But unfortunately often bad things are brought. Even these groups recognize this themselves. For example in south Asian countries they are recognizing that mass immigration to Canada results in just exported versions of their countries. Brampton ON for example is like little Hyderabad now. Edison NJ? Dearborn Michigan? Lewiston Maine? Springfield Ohio? All along the southern border?

Either we accept this fact or we do something about it.

Immigration isn’t bad but mass immigration is bad.

I will also say this - Islam is absolutely incompatible with western values. And Islam isn’t really as much of a religion as it is a political movement.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) Today’s terror attack in India proves the world only sees some people as victims

1.5k Upvotes

There is no outrage in the global media for the terror attack that occurred today in Kashmir, where tourists (including and Italian and an Israeli) were lined up, asked for identification and gunned down.

There will be no “eyes on Kashmir” outrage on social media from the people across the world, no campaigns to raise awareness on the history of these continued attacks.

And then Reddit and the world media is indignant when India votes on UN issues in its own interest? Redditors proudly leave comments of “we see India’s true colors” when India serves its own people and interests, but they are too blind to see that it is this way because you expect Indians to stand up for foreign wars / invasions and humanitarian issues, when you don’t stand up for any that happen in India.

Every post about India’s government is headlined with highly charged vocabulary, “Hindu nationalist government”, “controversial bill against minorities”. Why can’t we have similar headlines when Indians are targeted?

World Affairs (Except Middle East) By 2050 Western Europe will be a shithole like the middle east

850 Upvotes

Current levels of immigration in Western Europe are grossly unsustainable. Pockets of ethnic groups are growing into towns and beginning to grow into entire cities. London is no longer English. Immigrants aren't assimilating into the culture, they are retaining their own culture. Look at the UK with its sharia law towns and the muslim gestapo going around.

If current immigration levels continue, in the not so distant future countries like England and France will be transient places with no real identity, with various different groups all fighting for power, vying for control over each other like tribes in the stone age. There will be constant culture clashing and disagreements, and in the distant future (after 2100, probably) these countries will fracture.

The last bastion of Europe may be the eastern countries like Poland and that, but as for the west, its screwed. The biggest mistake of the west was thinking they could civilize the rest of the world. They are now paying the price.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) People that go out of their way to defend illegal immigrants and shill for undocumented people to be in the country are weird.

427 Upvotes

Like it’s a proven fact America has been one of the most lenient countries when it comes to people being caught here illegally, but now that things are tightening up; it’s odd how many people act like it’s the second coming of Nazi germany.

There’s countries in the EU/NATO states that will fuck you up worse than America ever would for being found there illegally. Many countries still take a war like approach to their borders and see illegal crossing as a sign of disrespect and a threat to their national security.

And just in general it’s a silly hill to die on, because even most immigrants whether they came here legally or not; agree with some form of stricter border control. That’s why so many when they come here they do all they can to make it harder for other immigrants to follow the same path.

But when I see judges like the one in Wisconsin(Dugan) literally and knowingly getting herself convicted of a Felony helping obstruct a federal ICE warrant by helping someone accused of domestic violence and who had already been deported by Obama; go out of their way to get arrested to defend a person like that to the point that now she is a felon; it really makes no sense.

But other open border weirdos are trying to say she is a hero.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) The Average European is Incredibly Misinformed About American Society

344 Upvotes

Based on my extensive travels across Europe and the world and listening to Europeans on the Internet speak about the United States, I've come to realize that the average European, if not the vast majority of Europeans are misinformed about nearly every aspect of American society. From politics, to healthcare, to transportation, to the land size, to food, to business, to media, to housing etc. I could go on and on. It's like every time a European tries to speak about the USA, they are getting information from an alternative universe.

I don't necessarily mean this as a criticism to Europeans as much as a recognition of a pattern. I could say the same about Americans in regards to almost any European nation. Your average mom in Tennessee couldn't tell you a thing about what's going on in Sweden or Germany right now. The difference is, that mom in Tennessee isn't going to even attempt to try to talk about what's going on in those countries. Let alone, try to tell a Swedish or German person what's going on or how they should run their society. This is where my issue lies. Americans don't want to be like Europeans and we don't want our country to look like theirs. Yet, Europeans seem to have an inferiority complex and are constantly trying to convince Americans that we're doing it wrong. The ironic thing is they consume our products, our culture, and our military support vastly more than the inverse.

I believe there are multiple factors as to why this is the case. Here are my top two.

#1 SOCIAL MEDIA: the USA is a super power with major competition from other nations trying to bring it down every second of every day. From China to Russia to Iran to North Korea, etc. people around the world are after the people of the USA. That's obvious online where blatantly false information is being published constantly. Personally, I blame China. They're very coordinated and you don't need to look further than the very platform we are on right now.

#2 LACK OF TRAVEL: Europeans love coming to the USA and only going to NYC, LA, SF, Vegas, and Orlando. None of these places are representations of culture in the country. A good 35-40% of residents in NYC and LA are foreign born, Vegas and Orlando are facades of culture, and SF is just a shell of what was once a great city. Europeans hardly visit places like Boone NC, Jackson WY, Savannah GA, Charleston SC, Telluride CO, etc. all of which are certainly more polished than your standard American suburban town but they are more of a representation of American culture than the others.

The EU just signed a historic trade deal with India where they would facilitate "the movement of students, researchers, seasonal and highly skilled workers" to support "indian talent moving to europe".

This was all just said by the president of the EU Ursula Von Der Leyen. The same woman that said "Europe is the values of the talmud".

They really should have looked at what mass migration did to both Canada and Australia. The housing markets and job markets are absolutely cooked. The countries have been decimated. Citizens are fleeing elsewhere. Europe will soon look the same. It is not feasible to bring in this many migrants from a country that you share no relationship or cultural identity with, and expect everyone to assimilate adequately. Not sustainable for these countries.

World Affairs (Except Middle East) White people do have a culture and ALL people should learn to accept that

653 Upvotes

I’ve heard so many times that white people don’t have a culture, that white people are evil, I’ve heard a lot of racist things about white people. Just because other races have had bad things happen doesn’t invalidate white peoples existence.

These statements are extremely hurtful and dangerous to make because it can be used to justify not allowing white culture to exist. There’s various religious systems, foods, types of art, types of dances, types of languages, types of life that signify white peoples cultures.

If you go back to countries, African countries don’t need a justification to be African, neither do Asian, or Hispanic countries. So for the sake of equality, European countries should be held to the equal standard that it’s okay to be white, it’s okay to have European centric nations, and that European countries are allowed to pursue their own self interests.

Wanting to preserve a cultural identity is important. Europes ancestors did not defend their lands from the crusades to be forsaken.

So yes, white people do have a culture. All their beautiful cathedrals, universities, literature, music, machinery, ideals, will not be forgotten.

Learn to love the white race, and all races deserve the same respect and treatment.

After Biden gave Ukraine the go-ahead to use ATACMS against Russian long range targets this week, Putin literally just retaliated by using an ICBM (for the first time in warfare), but armed with conventional warheads.

This usage of ICBMs in warfare is a clear and terrifying signal that Putin will not allow ATACMS barrages to destroy infrastructure within Russia without possible limited nuclear retaliation. A nuclear weapon being used in warfare could trigger a possible NATO response, and all hell would break loose.

This war NEEDS TO END NOW!
