far-right or not ,the migrants should leave this uninteresting continent

 

 

But they won't since they dream about getting a better life. And Merkel has no moral backbone to turn them away plus she's a dead woman walking now so none of her ideas matter anymore. The damage is done.

If you were European and you said that, you'd immediately be labeled a racist

You are very naive. Religion as well as politics & journalism is all about power. About controlling any given society. These three are locked in an eternal war for power. Land ownership is a perfect way to control people. Any state holds that priviledge and so many more. You have to purchase the land first then purchase the build permit and the list goes on and on. Hell, these states even battle for ownership of some ice field in Antarctica because of what lies underneath it. Hell, they even sell land claim on the frickin' Moon of all places.

You what starts a good, civil conversation? Telling someone their super naive of the start. I’m well aware of the true nature of religion. There’s a good reason I’m agnostic. However, is a distinction to be made between reality and fiction. I am a democratic socialist. I want what’s best for people, so I will always fight for the people. It’s not that I’m naive, it’s that religion took me to dark places, and I truly believe that it can be improved. The same goes for government. As for journalism, I have to disagree with you. Journalism is about the truth until big corporations get involved and lure journalists in with better pay. At that point those journalists no longer write journalism, they write propaganda.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I would argue Merkel has a moral backbone because she has stood up for the weak and unrepresented, instead of listening to the calls of truly hateful (or in most cases, fearful) people.

I mean he already so many other -isms that I feel liked I wouldn’t be shocked if he was (and probably is)

Well I don’t see them as “parasites”. Most of immigrants I’ve meet have been very nice, friendly people, who contributed well to my state.
