I would use it as an argument against ethnostates tbh

Same way we do now.

nationstates are far better at responding to their people's needs than any global collective could

Unfortunately is that really true?

@Outboarduniform the stagnant birthrates are a new phenomenon within the last 30 years or so, last l checked.

Maybe more developed nation states but lots of countries would benefit from more global involvement

the world is also far too disunited for a global collective to adequately represent it

and that is not an argument to import people who do not share Japanese culture, values, or anything else that makes someone Japanese

Well obviously you can find change when you go back decades @Mord

and we would benefit from having stronger trading partners in currently struggling countries

Why would Japan be un able to assimilate like America?

And there is no argument calling for the importation of people into Japan

I mean we did it just fine.

@Somedudewithaname let me ask you something, and l want you to answer it honestly.

Sure

civnat doesn't work well because people with their own nationalism will experience culture shock in a different country unless they adapt

First generation immigrants will never truly integrate

Their children, however, will

Lol yes they do

@Hadou Divinity Mercurius of course

where have you been?

this is what we've seen in the past

but long-term they'll assimilate

Indeed

Would you find any problem with any european country to say that, for example "Poland is for Polish people", or "France is for French people". What is wrong with that

Hell Andrew Carnegie.

Ugh well I'm very mixed on this////

@Mord depends on your definition of polish and French

Well partly wat out boarding uniform says

@Somedudewithaname there are exceptions, and Scotland and America aren't all that distant culturally

There are tons of french citizens who are african

Polish and French people who have roots dated back at least 100 years @Outboarduniform

but if you look at Irish-Americans, they certainly struggled with assimilation in the beginning

the same with Italians

France has a ton of african citizens from the colonial era

who consider themselves french

But they are not French @Somedudewithaname

and played for the french team

@Mord how do you define French and Polish people though

they think they are.

would Polish Jews who've been there longer than 100 years be Polish
