''but Europe is now about saving its culture and way of life.''
na - some areas might be upset - but, how long back was Alf Garnett????
that gives you a hint on 'now'
''France is a lot further along that path''
pffffffffffffffft ------------ it's all bullshit. France is not Paris - French culture is outside of Paris and if one travels in the vast vast vast bulk of France - it's still very very French
any cultural change isn't from immigrants ---------- it's much more from things like technology and political changes - things like the downgrading of health care availability, teachers pays, less train services
that kind of stuff ---------- you just don't see in 99% of France the kinds of things you see on news on TV about Paris and Marseille etc
you just don't see it
IMO - pretty well all the issues come down to economics - one way or another
American wars for profit - they have destabilised Africa and the ME -------
France and other nations going to the American way of cut cut cut services -
tampering with selling off power assets - then, having to buy them back and take full control -
all because of economic decisions - and now --------- economic realities from wars in Ukraine and god knows what else - putting great strain on energy prices - all filtering though to what is left in peoples hands in cash at the end of the week -
Britain - Brexit mostly ------ great pain. Cities turning street lights off and halving rubbish collections --
that's all economics ------------- and people look around for 'whose fault is it?'
so they see Muslim women in the street or black guys - and the normal human response comes in ---------------' it must be their fault' --------- they're different
times are changing and we fear change and can't handle it - so we look for who to punch
