you are escaping persecution
i'm still a refugee, but i'm safe and the need to flee from conflict and persecuion is no longer valid since i'm not fleeing anymore
i guess?
the only possible reason i would want to leave turkey and go further into europe is for the economic prosperity
in effect, i am no longer a refugee
that's what you need to understand
i don't hate refugees at all, i think ppl have valid reason to flee syria and etc
so you think that refugees are gaming the system once they are no longer refugees because they enter Country #1
but i don't see how it is our responsibility to then have to babysit a huge chunk of the middle eastern population when they are in our country for economic reasons other than fleeing conflict
where is "our country"
USA?
i don't think they are necessarily gaming the system but i think they're trying to get into europe because it's economically affluent and they have better prospects there
im talking about the UK mainly but it's more broadly encompassing the entirety of europe
i would have been better saying continent
well, it probably has a lot to do with the conditions in Country #1 they flee to, right
country #1 = their native country
?
no
country #1 = country fled to as refugee
what reason would there be for that
or are starving, etc
Because afaik that logic could be extrapolated to literally every single country in Europe
and every single country in the world to be honest
literally every nation will have some capacity of hostility to newcomers, a lot of the time for perfectly valid reasons
well, in the US for example, there is no economic reason to not accept immigrants
well there is
particularly concerning wages, but thats another story
immigrants are a net benefit to our economy
again, incorrect but you're straying from the point
not incorrect
look at the actual data
(i know, i'm a 'science simp')
are you just gonna go off on some dumb tangent about something i can debunk again or do you wanna stick to the actual convo?
there is a very, very, very small, like 2% downtick in certain wages
i have actual data on economics btw if ur really interested
but overall, it is a massive boon to the economy
alrigght guess we're doing this then
gimme a moment
are you gonna give me brainlet Sargon data
no i've got actual economic journals for you
