I don't see that as sad at all.
We have too many people on this planet and we're polluting ourselves to death anyway.
There are fewer jobs and resources.
You don't think it's sad that the Germans in Germany will be replaced by immigrants? It's not like Germany will just become empty, others will take their place and that is sad.

I wouldn't see it that dramatically. As long as it is friendly immigrants, no problem, immigration these days is quite strictly controlled. And the assumption that Germany and Europe as a whole will become Muslim are ridiculous. Muslims in Germany have hardly more kids than Germans and further immigration is limited, the situation is not like in Israel, where Muslims simply outbreed Jews.
Some regions simply do get emptier. Especially in the northern half there are many cities that have been shrinking for quite some time, and not because like in the US people are moving to the suburbs, they simply move to the southern half and a few other magnets such as Hamburg, where there are jobs. Or they have no kids and die out as families.

Today's Germans were not the first people in the area. That is just how things go... also, many immigrants are quite well adapted and some of them are probably more "German" than the Germans.
Demographics are a very difficult topic and they don't just change within a few decades usually. It is very hard to predict what the population of a country is going to look like in say 100+ years.
Those who value cultural diversity and think nothing of the destruction of a culture such as Germany's.
Those who think that a single, world culture devoid of any variety is preferable.
Myself, I am of the former. I love traveling the world and seeing the different cultures, learning languages, eating different kinds of food, seeing how people dress and sind and pray (or not).
And most of all, after seeing everything that is different from myself, coming to the conclusion that there is more that unites us as humans. It makes the differences that much more cherishable.

NO?
Ughhh @ the guy who said "today's Germans weren't the first ones there". Give me a break. This is getting so old. There was EVERYWHERE someone already there. And the Dinosaurs were the first anyway

Yep, I'm sure the Wooley Mammoths were annoyed when the Asian immigrants began showing up in North America 13,000 years ago.

That's what happens.
There were people here before it was Germany.
