and we're only at about 6% muslim in the UK

i'm in the UK, yeah.

australia tho, which is pretty close right

in a way, I don't blame them for not wanting to change and wanting to maintain their ways. The alternative around them is not very compelling.

True

of course

That's a damn good point actually.

but it's the political decisions and scale that makes it problematic

and the destruction it has on culture and tradition

help these foreign countries through trade and good relations, rather than stealing their youth

In the US, more and more Muslims avoid settling in cities.

leave them with their talents so that they can improve themselves

i think a big problem will be that unlike say the scotts, integrating a lot of muslims into british culture is going to be pretty hard bc they're totally different

@EnderOctanus why? so they can be in a majority in their own area?

No, to avoid gay people. Literally the reason given in one interview I saw a while back.

ah

kek. one of those old songs in that vid starts, "he was a lad in his 20's. she was a girl in her teens" that would not go down well today

"be a good soldier while your daddy's away. take orders from your mum and learn to obey"

these are good messages!\

yeah, group-think only allows one opinion...
...back then, he had to be older because he needed to have progressed on to a job to provide for both of them.

"smile for me buddy you know soldiers don't cry" that'd be seen as toxic masculinity today

my father always talked to me through my mother because he knew i'd obey her lol. He'd be right there in front of me and say "Pam, tell so and so to mow the lawn" or whatever needed doing.

popular music today is just hedonistic drivel

with bad messages

You don't get your morals from music lol

Music can reinforce or chip away at morals, most prominently at a younger age.

Pretty sure that whatever message this slut is trying to pass in anything but moral

think of all those grills who grew up idolizing miley lol

And her dozens of clones as well

Yeah I'm willing to wager it has an effect on how kids act, dress and talk like

It doesn't mean they've done any deep thinking about any of it, and even if they outgrow it eventually it still makes them more tolerant towards this type of behaviour

Meaning their kids will be worse off

And so the slippery slope of degeneracy keeps on going through the generations, progressively getting worse and worse

Singers didn't wake up one day and said "Ok today we're pushing twerking and race mixing on little kids"

indeed, cultural icons set the tone for society in a big way, simply because they are admired and seen by the young

Yeah that's a great word to describe it, the tone

Maybe Sargon would use a word like Zeitgeist

albeit the tone is part of that I guess

You know, this is probably one of the more civilized servers I've been in

a big part of it is that they define what it is to be cool

and kids love to be cool
