America needs to take action on this. (Which I say as a Canadian.)
The demographic transformation of Canada, and the resultant explosion of Chinese and Indian (in particular) influence ops there, is a national security risk to the United States.

Interesting:
Late 700s AD: Scandinavian farming is marginal. Short growing season, poor soil, grain barely viable. Most Norse survive on fishing, hunting, herding, raiding. Their diet: Fatty fish (salmon, herring), seal, whale blubber when available, dairy from cattle and goats, occasionally

Throw the book at each and everyone one of them who can be linked in any way to the fraud. Let there be ten thousand indictments.
I just want everyone to know the vast majority of the Somali community in Minnesota not only facilitated the fraud but passively participated. That's why the community and democrats are scared. This money is going to be tracked.

It’s remarkable how little pushback against the anti-Somali rhetoric there has been, even from quarters where we would have expected it. Many liberals themselves know that Somalis are generally undesirable as immigrants and should not be in the country.

How much of the stratospheric levels of government healthcare spending in the US is outright fraud like this?
MORE FRAUD 🚨 immigrants from Somalia have been buying homes in Minnesota, paying cash and saying they’re being used as “home healthcare” The state isn’t checking on the homes, many sit empty and are billed to the state for services. Making millions every year Minnesota realtor

Belgium is essentially a middle eastern country now, so this is par for the course:

I never thought I’d like to see trolling of such high quality:
The State Dept’s official advice for travel to Somalia: - draft a will - discuss funeral wishes with loved ones - make a plan for custody of your children - pick a family member to be point of contact for hostage-takers - leave DNA samples with your medical provider

If Britain is going to be preserved as a nation mass ethnic cleansing has to begin now, essentially. I say this neither as a proponent nor as a proponent of ethnic cleansing—u simply say it as a fact.
Britain has a new TFR of 1.4, but only 51% of births have been recorded as White British. WB TFR is probably only around 1.05 per woman. For context, Japan, long the poster child for declining fertility, has a TFR of 1.2. Native British birthrates are absolutely catastrophic.

Fertility is absolutely cratering in the densest parts of the country. More evidence that the YIMBY style of building -- particularly urban apartment towers -- is very bad for birthrates.
Updating this chart with the latest year of data. Fertility continues to fall in the top decile of population density..

Population stagnation and decline have major upsides:
@neolibgav In the 21st century, Japanese housing prices have dropped about 25%. This is why Japanese can continue to move to Tokyo despite general economic stagnation while their equivalents in the Anglosphere move away from London/NYC/Sydney/Toronto. Japanese infrastructure and public

How can this be fixed?
This already happens very frequently Jury trials in America essentially don't work because black jurors refuse to convict fellow blacks, even if their guilt is obvious, out of in-group preference Multiple murderers who clearly committed the crime have gotten off, in recent

Exactly:
“Why are they doing this? Can they not see that it is ugly?” Everyone can agree that it is indeed very ugly. No one did this because they thought it was nice. So why do they do it? The phenomenon is called power-tripping. They know it will upset people, and this is the

Unspeakable horrors are becoming an almost daily occurrence in the era of mass immigration:
Another day, another gruesome crime from a Somali in Denmark. This time the perpetrator threw a 2-year-old out from the 7th floor to its death. This Somali baby murderer had also previously committed murder 10 years ago. At that time he was declared mentally unwell, and not

When multiple factors contribute to a difference, any one of them might explain more than 100% (or less than 0%) of the observed overall outcome. Natural differences probably explain more than 100% of observed gender gaps in the West, since we go out of our way to shrink them.
Yes. "Gender gaps" and "gender roles" exist about 90-95% - my estimate - for real reasons.

The Democrats are very sad that they are no longer the party of the working class and are trying desperately to regain this status. But also they are like “haha look at these proles in the GOP who have a smaller vocabulary than us!” The sweet spot, apparently, is to be some
Trump generated a partisan realignment in intelligence, which I feel like Democrats would talk about constantly except that progressives aren't supposed to believe in IQ.

Remember when people said this was logistically impossible?

Why does anyone bother to look at formal economic stats when they could just look at the number of visitors to Las Vegas to know whether a recession is coming?
Big Las Vegas fan here. But visits to the city are off by almost 8% this year, an unprecedented decline outside of recessions and pandemics.

Here are some claims that are simultaneously true, but that people maddeningly refuse to simultaneously acknowledge: 1. The knowledge and culture industries are highly unrepresentative of the societies they serve, and remained so throughout the "Great Awokening" (I wrote a book
