Absolutely. Uyghurs are a small minority in Xinjiang, and have been for some time. Moreover ethnic Han are given preference in employment in Xinjiang's energy extraction industry, which has also driven up local prices. Uyghur are disproportionately impoverished in their own homelands, and Han attitu...

In the immigrant thread you were implying that I am a "racist" I wasn't, and I certainly never used the worst you've placed in quotes to describe anyone here in that thread. Sorry it was actually this thread where you made the implication: You would say the worst terrorist are the ones th...

I guess some groups of people are just naturally better than others. Are there any youtube videos that talk about this topic at great length? Hercleum Persicum waxed eloquently about the superiority of Persian culture for years on this site. Oddly enough, he did so from his domicile in Vancouver, C...

Rather, some cultures have contributed more to civilization than others. Sounds like those cultures doing all the heavy lifting deserve a pass on anything disagreeable they might have done at the same time they were doing all of that valuable inventing. Maybe if you belong to a second-rate culture ...

. . . I think I preferred British heroes back when they were mutton-chopped and pith-helmeted genocidaires. These whining racist trolls and their "free speech" grift is harder to respect. . . . Unlike like the rest of the planet's genocidaires, the "mutton-chopped and pith-helmeted g...

In the immigrant thread you were implying that I am a "racist" I wasn't, and I certainly never used the worst you've placed in quotes to describe anyone here in that thread. Which makes a hell of a lot less sense than me implying you following in the victim hood footsteps of Hitler. None ...

Its all about finding an excuse, as in the Daily Caller article Doc linked above. Allegedly some bad guy was in a caravan, therefore we can do anything to anybody in a caravan, forever. Its right to gas them, right to keep their children in internment camps, because certainly some number of them wi...

True. Age will do it to us all. Including this guy. He looks terrible. However, you don't seem to be able to rebut anything they say. . . . Rebuttals are always more interesting that slurs. That's "debate" in the 21st century. Some random guy makes 200 videos calling a fifth of the world'...

Its actually been funny watching liberals getting all excited as the Mueller probe has been heating up these past few weeks. They don't understand, they'll never get what they want out of it. The system isn't set up that way, formally or informally. Trump probably did everything he's accused of and...

I would say that which terrorists were worst would be the ones that killed more people. You would say the worst terrorist are the ones that don't look like you. Moreover the ones that do look like you, despite loving Trump and hating feminists and socialists and liberals, are really, technically le...

Maybe a freakishly small fraction of people literally don't want any borders. One happy family living on one planet earth without nation states. This utopia so far has only caused mass suffering and failures. Most people want porous borders but with controlled immigration-emigration as an outcome o...

Last time I checked, in this century, on avg 178 people killed in the US per year by Islamic terrorists. That seems like a silly way to measure the present day threat, but if it makes you feel better to believe that Islamist terrorists are worse than neo-nazi terrorists I don't really care to debat...

I wouldn't link an attack like this to US election cycles. Its got more to do with conspiracy theories and extreme right-wing politics that spread on social media. The alt-right/neo-nazi groups a divided between loving Trump, and hating Trump because he isn't extreme enough . There is no equivalent...

seeing as every culture throws up loser guys who act all creepy with women, Id say muslim terrorists and american shooters are not caused by incels but some other cultural forces. i find it amusing how some folks are freaking out at the existence of incels and whats going on in their heads, ignoran...

as an outsider it always hard to tell when riots and burning cars in France is a worry or just that time of the year. Ibrahim, First, good to see you around again. The above is all I meant about the riots- but adding to that- Macron doesn't engender confidence, making things appear worse , which ma...

Who do I believe? Netanyahu and Spengler, or the ADL and Jewish organizations in Hungary? CItations? The Jerusalem Post column I linked on the previous page referred to the ADL saying that antisemitism on Hungary was rising more quickly and any nation in Europe, and Jewish organizations in Hungary ...

I suspect you dont get to be autonomous if your land is the gateway to middle eastern energy supplies and the european market. Were I Tibetan or Uughur I might say: feel free to mine and drill, just don't operate concentration camps and bulldoze ancient monasteries etc. But I guess Beijing wants to...

China flooding B.C. with boatloads of multi-millionaire tech executives. China's "consequences" are going to be them jerking us around at some trade summit, just like Trump's hardball approach was to tack on some tariffs en route to a slightly reworked version of the same deal we had befor...

EU flagged crowd control vehicle used to control anti-EU protestors.
