I think it's right now in the US

2019-01-13 04:57:21 UTC  

Dude, that doesn't really tell you much, and I agree with you on your second point. Why would a nationalist minded European want to immigrate to a place like California, NYC or London?(not dissing those places but they aren't exactly friendly to nationalists)

2019-01-13 04:58:34 UTC  

well, a nationalist minded European wouldn't emigrate in the first place tbh

2019-01-13 04:58:56 UTC  

a lot of the nationalism you see is fake nationalism that's more about the aesthetics

2019-01-13 04:59:14 UTC  

for example, my dad has a Polish eagle tattoo, but his actual views aren't particularly nationalistic

2019-01-13 04:59:21 UTC  

he just likes the aesthetics

2019-01-13 05:01:14 UTC  

maybe we should continue this in the Slav server

2019-01-13 05:01:25 UTC  

and stop taking over this server lol

^ lol that's basically my dad

2019-01-13 05:02:22 UTC

2019-01-13 05:03:13 UTC

... I'm sorry, but I almost did a spit-take

2019-01-13 05:03:54 UTC  

"Son, you are young man now. You have your choice: Polish girl from your own culture, or Vietnamese girl who speaks no English"

2019-01-13 05:04:00 UTC  

he thought it was really cool that his Mexican friend had a Polish wife

2019-01-13 05:04:06 UTC  

@Salo Saloson "but think about the food. Haven't you have pho, bru. The girls are so trad."

2019-01-13 05:04:23 UTC  

I wouldn't really mind a girl who doesn't speak English

2019-01-13 05:04:26 UTC  

Pho is ramen with a different broth

2019-01-13 05:04:30 UTC  

not speaking Polish would be the bigger issue

2019-01-13 05:04:43 UTC  

Well if she doesn't speak English OR Polish you're up shit creek

2019-01-13 05:04:57 UTC  

but that's racist to care about

2019-01-13 05:05:13 UTC  

yeah, well, wy pipo be racist

2019-01-13 05:06:12 UTC  

I was at church with my dad on Christmas and it was like 10% white. It was the same church that I grew up going to, but I didn't remember it being *that* bad. I said to my dad, "so, is this, like, an Asian church now?"

2019-01-13 05:06:17 UTC  

he didn't appreciate that

2019-01-13 05:06:38 UTC  

shoulda called it a Vietnamese church, he'd have liked that more

2019-01-13 05:06:41 UTC  

probably

2019-01-13 05:06:54 UTC  

The Law and Justice party in Poland exemplifies what radical neo-cons do once they have power. I think a large potion of the right wing America and Europe are trojan horses. They may seem implicitly pro European but once they get into power they use right wing rhetoric to justify bringing in more immigrants. It's an interesting coincidence that immigration always increases more under a Republican presidency than a Democrat one.

2019-01-13 05:07:29 UTC  

Regarding emigrating, I can see theoretically why someone would leave. You could raise more children and more money as an American than in Poland. Then you could send your grandkids to take it over like the Jewish community has with political offices in Ukraine and Poland.

2019-01-13 05:08:09 UTC  

It's a complicated situation

2019-01-13 05:09:02 UTC  

In Lviv in 2010 there was a Jewish guy from New York running for office. I think he didnt speak Ukrainian or Russian. Everyone knew he was a scammer yet he won, IIRC.

2019-01-13 05:09:29 UTC  

Depends, while Polish wages are lower, so are the costs of living. So unless you are highly skilled, you probably won't be making that much more money in the US than in Poland.

2019-01-13 05:09:58 UTC  

@Logan wow...

2019-01-13 05:10:09 UTC  

@Virgil eh my mind is already set that I'll make less money

2019-01-13 05:11:56 UTC  

Well on the bright side, Poland has one of the fastest growing economies in Europe if not the planet, so people will probably be making a lot more money there in the future.

2019-01-13 05:13:03 UTC  

that could also be a pull factor for immigration

2019-01-13 05:13:26 UTC  

I hope the economy doesn't grow too quickly before Poland gets more nationalistic laws in place

2019-01-13 05:14:28 UTC  

also, I know this is a bit selfish, but I could get cheap property if it doesn't grow too quickly, so it's kinda in my interests for it not to

2019-01-13 05:15:44 UTC  

Good point

2019-01-13 05:16:54 UTC  

oh I heard about that book a while ago

2019-01-13 05:16:55 UTC  

Poland is pretty widely expected to do well this century. It is a meme this Friedman helped put out there.
