It seems to be a general theme, that most people assume that 50 million non-Euopeans moving to Europe is expected, and anything less, and Europeans are racist, intolerant, scum of the planet types of people. Isn't it hypocritical that it isn't reciprocal?
Does it seem like the 'diversity' and 'open' is always a one-way street? Only Europe should be, but you'd never expect it of anyone else?
Wouldn't it be better if all of Asia threw open their doors, and said 'come on in!' But, almost every Asian country has an extremely rigid rigid rigid "no way in hell" policy.
Want to move 50 million Americans or 50 million Europeans to the Philippines? To South Korea? To Iran? To Afghanistan? To China? To Indonesia? To Turkey? To Saudi Arabia? To Kenya? It's not going to happen. We could make the same arguments, but it'll be great for their economies! And that would probably be true, but it will never happen. It's so incredibly unlikely to happen, that no one even makes a remote remark that is simply even possibly could.
If one were to move 50-100 million Europeans to Asia Country X, wouldn't it have an amazing impact on their overall quality of life, if that's what they are seeking? Wouldn't there be an upheaval in their economic power on a global scale, if that is what they were seeking?
I realize this will NEVER happen, but just what if one Asian country out there, just said, "Come on in, here's your Dual Passport, start a new life here." Not just UAE allowing people to work there, but an immigrant country that really says, 'you are now one of us, just like if we'd moved to Canada or Australia', and here you go.
So, your point seems to be that Asians/Africans/Middle Easterners only move to Europe in order to spoil the party for us? And Europeans should do the same to them, but aren't allowed to?

Considering that Europeans did that to not one, not two but THREE continents (North America, South America and Australia) to the point that they completely displaced the indigenous population there, I'm wondering what the fxck you have to complain about? Did Europe not colonise the ENTIRE globe? The only reason Africans, Asians and Middle Easterners are moving to Europe is because Europe pillaged their wealth and made them impoverished in the first place.
I'm very pro-immigration for the Americas and Australia. As those are IMMIGRANT NATIONS. I think they 100% should be filled with immigrants. I love the diversity and mix in those nations.
However, what I don't get is that the entire world expects Europe to be exactly the same, but there is zero expectations for other countries outside of the 'Western World' to ever open up their doors to immigrants.
I've been living in Asia for 15 years, and no one here will ever even remotely dream of allowing a ton of American or European immigrants coming in at the levels that they do in Europe. Yet, all over the Europe forums, people are calling Europeans racists and intolerant because they are allowing in those kinds of numbers, and apparently people think they aren't doing enough in that regard.
I agree with Tiger Beer. It's ridiculous to criticize European nations for not allowing more immigrants while other nations would never allow it. Why don't people criticize East Asian nations for not allowing immigrants?

So you're an immigrant already and you're complaining about immigrants in Europe. Priceless
Visa's suck! I'd say open up ALL borders for people without any criminal record coming from non-Islamic countries with a GDP (PPP) per capita above $25.000.
What country would Europeans want to move to? Possibly a wealthy country like Japan, but even then I'm skeptical
