People are tribalistic
America and it's values hold individualism high
@xmrsmoothx Maybe you should ascribe to their actual definitions, so as not to inadvertently label anyone who is for controlling immigration as a Nazi? There are millions of people who are absolutely fine with immigration of people from any race or origin who are pragmatic enough to realise that it takes many years for any number of immigrants to integrate properly, and that it might be prudent to restrict immigration after a period of influx.
One Big Tribe
It won't work
@Grenade123 I'm not sure what to tell you other than "progressivism of multi-racial society and border-deregulating " does not mean "accepting all individuals or cultures as exactly identical in worth"
Immigrants who are individualistic can immigrate well
@methdragon violently overthrow all states and establish a workers' society
what workers?
If there is more immigration to america there will be more identity politics
@xmrsmoothx you a socialist or communist?
there are very few these days who are really workers
@PerformedShelf "and that it might be prudent to restrict immigration after a period of influx." is nationalism, if applied to races is ethno-nationalism
it may be pragmatic, but it is still that
That is plain wrong
@methdragon define "socialist" and "communist"
Why do you always ask for definitions?
@Grenade123 the working class
I repeat, an ethno-state is a country with one ethnicity, hence the Aryan race that Hitler wanted to establish as the ruling and rightful ethinicity of Germany. A multi-ethnic country cannot be an ethno-state, and its people cannot be ethno-nationalists
@methdragon oftentimes people use definitions of words that don't mean to them what they mean to me, so I like to make sure we're on the same page
True
@Grenade123 that's not what working class means
I understand but its funny I am sorry
@PerformedShelf ethno-nationalism isn't necessarily coincident with ethno-state, I would say
the working class was invented back when most people worked in factories
Socialism - a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
now must work in that area is done by machines
instead we have more service-oriented fields.
Communism - a theory or system of social organization in which all property is owned by the community and each person contributes and receives according to their ability and needs
@methdragon more or less yeah
Most people can become CEOs
The standard definition
Yeah I disagree with that
@methdragon not the second definition, that's not what communist means
is it easy? no.
No?
@xmrsmoothx True, I will grant you that, there may be some Ethno-nationalists in any society, but a citizen in a country with multiple ethnicities who is fine with immigration, but is pragmatic about the details is not an etho-nationalist
Then my school's teaching is a lie
@Grenade123 what you're saying is "many people in the working class can change to a different class" which doesn't really affect what I'm saying
@methdragon not surprising
