Re: EU Migrant Crisis Rant

[(Anonymous)]

+10000 to everything you're saying in this thread. So much of the problem here seems to be that instead of paying attention to what you're actually saying, the person/people you're arguing with are only hearing their own presumption of what you really mean. And there's a kind of paranoia at work that causes people to presume that what you really mean is the worst possible thing they've heard anyone say that sounds remotely similar to what you're actually saying.

So "there is a cultural clash here, and that there is extensive documentation online that sexual harrassment and street harrassment are extensive problems in many of the countries of migrants origins" becomes "immigrant men are slavering rapists just waiting to attack women."

You're seeing the shades of grey, and attempting to navigate them, while others are defaulting almost instantaneously to a need for black and white. The thing I've been struggling to understand is why this is happening. Is everyone so terrified of being thought racist that they won't even look directly at the issue?

Yes.

I think yes. Weren't there news reports that the police initially suppressed the reports because they didn't want to fan anti-immigrant sentiment?

more like the only people who ever bring up this argument are looking for thinly-veiled excuses for their already racist beliefs
