With the banging victory of PVV this morning, it seems to me like far-right parties are winning in European countries one after one, along with their anti-‘expat’ sentiment. It obviously makes me a bit sad and worried, even more so when I browse Dutch-related subreddits and seems that non-Western students and high-skilled workers are no longer welcome in the Netherlands and Europe.
I really love Europe and intend to build my life here in - Denmark, and things are still going alright here so far for Asian expats. How is it going in your place and do you have any plan B?
Racism in Europe is worse than Canada and the US. I was an expat in Germany a few years back and even then I feel it big time. The problem is you’ll never be the first class citizen there. They will always look at you as second class. I’m in the UK now which to be honest is much better than mainland Europe. London is probably the most diverse city in the UK and Europe. So I don’t feel different. Plus even though I’m south east Asian I’m an American and in the UK there are many Americans I feel like a bit like home sometimes lol. So no plan B. Worst comes to worst I just come home to the states. No big deal.
Nothing will change
As always; integrate a little, don’t be a dick and you’ll be fine. The only real message is to do something about those that cross 12 borders to a culture they don’t respect and without contributing to their new society.
Literally nothing will change the fact that they have to make coalition between about four parties will water everything down. It’s one of the biggest problems and benefits of living in the Netherlands stability through a lack of majority…
I’m not east asian, but central asian. I want to stay in europe as long as the right wing wins. As soon as this becomes (more) woke and rtarded like America I’ll be returning to my country. It may be poor but at least we only have 2 genders and children don’t go to drag shows.
Nothing about right wingers wanting you out of here is woke, outsiders don’t understand that left and right looks different in Europe. The left protects people like you whilst the right despises you regardless of your education
Mmmm I’ve been living in Europe for almost 10 years. The left hasn’t protected sht. They say they care about us, they say they’re here for us. Nothing is true about that and I’ve lived though it. And the right doesn’t despise me lol. They despise illegal immigrants which I also do. I came here legally.
And this right despises all immigrants but you’ll find out
What left are you talking about? The left hasn’t run anything in this country for the past 13 years goofball
That’s one of the reasons I left Germany. Young people are mostly left-wing extremists.
I know… I live in Germany too since 5 years ago. It’s getting worse and worse :')
You are correct. Woke leftist policies lead to poverty. Good conservative government leads to wealth.
Exactly ♥
The fuck you talking about? Europe is sliding more and more to the right and becoming poorer and poorer. If there’s any causation between policy and poverty it’s not the left.
In America, you’d be called a far-right extremist and fascist, and as an American in Korea, I agree with you.
Yup I know. I’ve been called that here in Europe too until they see me and they see that I don’t look white at all and then their heads explode because they don’t know what to say/do. They’re full idiots.
Haha They’re probably thinking, “You’re supposed to be oppressed. How dare you think that way!” Even though Korea has plenty of Leftists, I love that there are just two genders here, children aren’t taken to drag shows, teachers aren’t teaching LGBTQ stuff to kindergarteners, etc.
They literally try to tell me how “oppressed” I am 😂 😂 😂 😂 it’s ridiculous. Good for koreans, I hope they stay normal ♥
Read your history books. Remember how things were like when right wing governments in Europe were voted into power and what the Europeans did when they needed someone to blame for all their self created problems. Remember what all of it lead to. Remember how many lives were destroyed. History always repeats itself. It’s not my opinion it is recorded history. I am worried and I am not even Muslim.
Wilders is a racist socialist. Nothing “right” about him expect that being racist gives you the “rightwing” label these days
Denmark = Nazi Germany.
And you arrogantly say that someone should read history books.
Jesus christ this sub is so unhinged.Nazism was a pan European phenomenon not just in Germany. Dutch loved the nazi’s. 10’s of thousands joined the SS. French SS defended Berlin in the last days. So called occupied west European countries cooperated enthusiastically with the final solution. You really do not know this ? We are unhinged ? You are dangerously ignorant which only bolsters my argument of a resurgence of the herrenvolk mentality. We are screwed.
And after Europe was liberated from nazism, the dear leader’s who had sold out their countries were unceremoniously taken out back and shot. Edit: I’m Norwegian. Our puppet leader during the war was named quisling. A word now synonymous with traitor.
It is estimated that between 20 to 25 thousand dutchmen served in the German army and the Waffen SS. Back then the population of the Netherlands was approximately 9 million.
That is under 0,3%.Go out and touch some grass, and maybe read a history book.
The city I live when it was announced that there was going to be a refuge center built the local response was to hang a pig from a tree on the intended land. The owner of the land backed out after being threatened with violence. Nice people you are making excuses for. Excuse while I go out and touch some grass.
You might want to watch out before doxxing yourself Heesch is a small town. And you kind of forgot that the incident happened on the backdrop of two brutal rapes committed by Muslim “refugees”.
And again your hillbilly town is not the entirety of Europe.
So yes, please go out and touch some grass
Glad to see you can Google but 20 to 25 thousand fighting age men which is a Corp sized unit. 300 thousand collaborated or joined the nazi party about 60 thousand stood trial. That is a good portion of the population. In any case my point still stands. History always repeats itself. No one trusts you. Time will tell. In the dutch language subredits there is talk of solving the housing crisis by evicting Muslim immigrants from their homes and giving the houses to dutch people. But I have to touch grass ?
Fringe ideas being discussed on reddit is litterally the same as throwing people in ovens, in a systematic genocide.
A bit overly dramatic are we?
But i guess, since almost half of Americans vote Republican, they litterally want black people sent back on the plantations.
What does this have to do with Americans ? Stay on topic. Right wing parties. Europe. Justifiable fear of anti immigrant hate. Revisionist history. Come on. Focus.
Really? You know left fails when they have to bring up the “youre like hitler!” In their argument. You do know hitler was the leader of a left socialist party right?
Total scaremongering.
