From National Review, 3/25/2016:
"Importing large numbers of new refugees without any realistic plan to help them avoid a similar fate is cultural self-immolation."

My family were immigrants, from Ireland, in the 19th Century both maternally and paternally. My maternal roots date from Ohio in the early 1800s, fraternal Boston in the late 1800s. The Irish assimilated into American culture, though a little period reading will indicate that was a gradual process, too, with plenty of cultural speedbumps.
But assimilate, they did. Catholicism, once a bit "fringe" or the lower-class of society, today suffers no such stigma in the United States. Oh, WASP and other Presbyterian sentiments still exist in smaller parts of the country, but I'd not take seriously any attempt to use that as a lever at the "best" social clubs. I belong to once such club...Cornell Club...and assure readers the only form of "discrimination" there is about achievement. Certainly not religion or ethnicity or...(any other -ity).
Achieving is the new Classism, as I've written about before. I don't believe many insurmountable barriers to achievement exist anymore in the United States.
I must agree with National Review that the self-destructive, schizophrenic European urge to "accept" peoples with antithetical values... in the millions, from former colonies and elsewhere ...is now coming home to roost. I'd feel bad for them except that sort of cultural lunacy often manifests as arrogance, lofty Europeans lording over via Old World superiority vs. the slightly-bourgeoisie American New World uncouthness and can-do independent spirit.
GMAFB.
I'd not believe it, had I not worked with enough Europeans to see this in action. I feel about Europeans as the Japanese feel about us: some aspects of their culture, I embrace, for convenience. Specifically, their automotive excellence, weaponry, and other fine engineering (watches and clocks). The rest of it, well: suffice to say I'm not impressed with outcomes compared to the United States.
Nor are the Japanese impressed with us much beyond the rudiments and trendiness of certain American cultural icons.
Careful who you let into your nest. We need a little more Nationalism, people. That sort of...circling back...self-immolation simply will not be allowed to happen in the United States, God willing and inline with the wishes and will of all true Americans.
