@Jacob I wonder if a crash due to the retiring boomers will undercut the immigration demand. Once a big crash happens I could see the country going either pro or anti immigration. It isnt really clear to me.
well the crash'll hurt _us_ the most
since we'll be the ones who have to build everything back up again
mo money fo' mo programs
The Polish-American community isn't exactly uniform, I'm sure Polish-Americans in places like Seattle and rest of the West Coast are fairly liberal, like the rest of their Euro-American counterparts living in those places. In my experience with Polish communities in Upstate New York and Ohio, they tend to adopt the politics that are most common towards the area that they live in. So I don't really think Poles in America are more prone to miscegenation than their Irish, Italian or Anglo counterparts.
84% of Polish-Americans believe that welfare is the best way to help their community
"super based European immigrants" are a meme
Christ's blood, did they stop at Africa on their way to the US?
oh you were responding to the miscegenation thing
I was more making a quip
well, Catholics in general have twice the rate of miscegenation
not saying that to express any opinion on anyone's religion, that's just a statistic that exists
I think it's right now in the US
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)
well, a nationalist minded European wouldn't emigrate in the first place tbh
a lot of the nationalism you see is fake nationalism that's more about the aesthetics
for example, my dad has a Polish eagle tattoo, but his actual views aren't particularly nationalistic
he just likes the aesthetics
maybe we should continue this in the Slav server
"For open borders! Charge!"
^ lol that's basically my dad
he once told me to find a Vietnamese girl
>vietnamese gf
... I'm sorry, but I almost did a spit-take
"Son, you are young man now. You have your choice: Polish girl from your own culture, or Vietnamese girl who speaks no English"
he thought it was really cool that his Mexican friend had a Polish wife
@Salo Saloson "but think about the food. Haven't you have pho, bru. The girls are so trad."
I wouldn't really mind a girl who doesn't speak English
Pho is ramen with a different broth
not speaking Polish would be the bigger issue
Well if she doesn't speak English OR Polish you're up shit creek
but that's racist to care about
yeah, well, wy pipo be racist
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?"
he didn't appreciate that
shoulda called it a Vietnamese church, he'd have liked that more
probably
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.
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.
