When you get unsolicited mass immigration then mass deportation is a solution, otherwise you get mass immigration as a long term event and that spells the death of whatever country you are in.

Mass immigration built America. And pretty much destroyed the indigenous natives. European conquest certainly took a toll on the indigenous population, no question about that, but the overall result of mass immigration to America has been largely positive.

European conquest certainly took a toll on the indigenous population, no question about that, but the overall result of mass immigration to America has been largely positive. Not to the natives. Can you think of any empire or superpower that has not taken a toll on indigenous populations and been universally positive? Today there are 570 federally recognised tribes in the US. A lot of progress has been made towards improving access to native language education and healthcare. Many tribes have successfully implemented renewable energy projects, such as wind farms and solar power initiatives, to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels. These initiatives not only contribute to a cleaner environment but also create job opportunities within tribal communities. Despite progress, Native Americans continue to face social and economic disparities. Unemployment rates are often higher on reservations, and poverty levels remain elevated compared to the general population. Substance abuse, mental health issues, and suicide rates are also significant concerns within Native American communities. Efforts are being made to address these challenges through increased funding for healthcare, mental health services, and addiction treatment programs specifically tailored for Native Americans. nativetribe.info/thriving-traditions-native-american-life-today-unveiled/I have just come back from a visit to Alaska where we spent some time with the Hoonah (Tlingit) people. The Hoonah catch, freeze and ship salmon, crab, black cod and halibut. Between May and September, 75 cruise ships dock at Icy Strait Point, many of whose passengers pay to hear tribal history and see tribal dance. We noticed that our guides had very few teeth. They told us that they chew berries to release the juice which they add to something else in order to take the hair off animal hides. This practice and the dental issue that comes with it is not likely to go away because it is part of the cultural heritage that is precious to them.

Mass immigration for the Native Americans was effectively catastrophic for them culturally and in terms of health and life expectancy. In as little as 8 generations they were almost totally overwhelmed.

You may not have noticed but the OP is about fairly overcrowded European country and not a near empty continent. You also may not have noticed that the OP was about the point of view of the natives of THAT country and reflected the view of some natives of THIS overcrowded ( the UK if you are still struggling) country . Thanks for the lesson that , even after several hints, merely highlighted that you missed the whole bloody point of the thread .

You replied to me ….twice. You used an example that had nothing to do with either the OP or my post . Telling us that mass immigration ‘ made’ the US when mass immigration destroyed the natives ….in a thread that highlighted the angst of natives regarding mass immigration was dumb enough to point out its dumbness . Sorry it triggered you .

To clarify the death of a country may, and often does, result in the birth of another. America rising from the ashes of Native American lands, culture and peoples is what happened. We can judge whether that is good or bad but it is what happened. Mass immigration to European countries may involve the death of many countries as cultures and peoples change. Like the Native Americans I believe that is wrong.

Sorry it triggered you . Topics take turns. Sandypine's comment was less specific and more general. That's what I answered. This ends my participation here.
