Which never was up for debate to begin with. I can't for the life of me understand why noone of you tries to get some serious information instead of tabloids and right wing bawlings. It's readily available. Only not as shrill as the shithead's narrative, which obviously lured in a lot of you.

Let them distract you away from that by telling you how terrible immigrants are though.
This was never about immigrants, it was about vaping! Oh shit...am I doing this wrong again?

I'm still up in the air on my views on mass migration. But what I can't stand is seeing so many ignorant and misguided people letting themselves get their attention diverted away from the really pressing problems in society, by sensationalist propaganda.
At this point I probably still wouldn't say I just support uncontrolled mass immigration, but there are more pressing issues and I'm tired of "immigration!!" being the top issue on everyone's lips when, to be blunt, we have bigger shit to be worrying about. So yes, at this point I don't really care about immigration.
@ abaris - That one's easy. The right-wing are getting savvy at using traditionally leftist languages of "rights" and "freedoms" to appeal to a tradtionally leftist voter base. I guess that's how Ukip got so popular in the first place. More distraction tactics.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

I read a variety of news sources, including traditionally leftist outlets such as the Guardian. But certainly not the Sun or anything like that. So let's not start this shit.

You do realize that having wealthy (by comparison) immigrants would indeed be a huge plus for third world countries. Who the fuck would want to go though?

Did I tell you recently, you're an idiot? If not, I was sorely amiss. Here, have one of these to ease the pain.
