Economy Germans opinions of migrants have changed

[MicroBrew]

I just saw on the news that Germans don't want migrants and are voting for a party that dont want them also. And it looks like all the European countries feel the same way. They talked about how the more migrants, the more crime, the more welfare, the lower the test scores. They're seeing such crime that they're not used to seeing committed by fellow scandinavians.

So the Europeans are learning this lesson that migrants spell doom for their countries. A few days ago I saw Swedish migrants celebrate the killings of Jews in Israel. They were driving around honking their horns waving the Palestinian flag.

So why is America letting migrants in knowing that it's bad for Europe, it's also bad here? The Asian immigrants and the cream of the crop of other countries are pulling their weight but the very vast majority aren't.

As far as illegals go, the majority are from Central America and Latin America. Most of these folks are part indigenous, so they are not migrants like people from the MidEast or S.Asia or the Far East. The US also played a big role in fcuking up these countries by supporting death squads and dictators, especially so in Central America.

Is it worse than Berlin? I wasn't too impressed with Berlin when I went there.

No. Munich is a conservative place and bavarian culture is strong. Berlin is a progressive fuckhole.

Some quick facts about Germany:

1. In 2021, Germand had a homicide rate of 0.82, which is eight times lower than the US which had a rate of 6.81, three times lower than Canada and on par with other Nothern European countries.
2. While non-german citizens are slightly overrepresented in the crime statistics as a whole even after adjusting for confounders, Syrians, Afghans and Iraqis are actually underrepresented in the crime statistics.
3. While crime did increase in 2016, a majority of that increase was refugees breaking the so called 'immigration/foreigners law' of illegal entry that can only be committed by migrants, and asylum seekers getting into fights. Crime has been trending down since 2017 despite the influx:

Now, as with Sweden, there is no denying that mass immigration of many young people with a lower socioeconomic status from countries with different cultures has brought challenges. I'm not even commenting on whether or not Germans should continue to tighten their immigration laws. However, as with Sweden, the fantasy of a country being torn to shreads is just that, a fantasy. Germany is one of the safest and most robust countries in the world, far safer than the US even if we compare immigrants as a subgroup. The fear mongering doesn't align with reality.

That s fake news. I live in Germany and migrants are overrepresented in crime here.

Why do you think these countries are letting/needing migrants to come in? Why would they do that in the first place?

My guess would be the same as in the US, questionable support for certain leaders.

Germans never liked immigrants to begin with.

AFD is popular because east germans have big identity issues. There are next to none immigrants in East Germany.
Other political parties are old and established but east germans never trusted them as they represent west germans who ripped them off after reunion and ridiculed them/ still do.

They would vote right wing shit parties without immigrants aswell and invent some other wanne be thread instead that's not even facing them.

Funny how when Germans are tired of non-native people coming in by the millions and overtaking their country, the typical White Americans response is to support the Germans.

Yet, when millions of non-native faith based Jews come into the Middle East and overtake the land of the indigenous Palestinians, these same White Americans support the non-native side.

Israel/Palestine is actually less Jewish today than it was 75 years ago.
