I think there is a huge misconception here regarding the immigration/open borders issue, and I would like to present a "golden mean" solution to it, but also clearing up the misconceptions here. Because it is easy to conflate racism and the preservation of a stable society, I don't think it is a honest thing to do and it does not address the issue.

First of all we have to make a clear distinction between culture and race. It's not the same thing, it may overlap:

• different colored people could have the same culture
• or different colored people could have different culture
• or same skin color people can have different culture

Packing all of these 3 distinct scenarios into 1 package and conflating them is not honest. Because cultural homogenity is not necessarily racist, it could be, but it doesn't have to.

Multi Racialism

Multi racialism or in plain English, different skin color people living in the same area and sharing the same culture. You know a good example of this is Hispanic countries like Spain, Mexico, Brazil and so forth. You have people from all over the place living there from white skin color to dark black and anything in the middle. Yet it's a homogenous culture, usually Catholics, all embracing the local traditions and customs with more or less variations and all of them accustomed to the culture, regardless of their skin color differences.

For example when I was in school, I had a pretty mixed racial class. I had classmates there of different skin colors, and this was back in the 90's when this wasn't even a news worthy issue. I never felt any kind of racist tendency in me, I had friends from all over the place, I could befriend anyone of any skin color, I didn't looked down on them just because they had different skin color, in fact most of the time I didn't even noticed it. We were kids basically, and if you get used to having different colored people around you from a young age, then you don't even notice it.

And it wasn't even an issue until the stupid media blew it up to an unproportional degree with all this race-baiting stuff. I personally could treat anyone of any skin color, if he has the same culture of course, with the same degree of respect.

I can also find women of any particular skin color attractive, although I probably shouldn't do that, because I am married. So I don't even think any sort of biological repulsion exists if they share similar customs and values as you do.

Multi Culturalism

Multi Culturalism on the other hand, regardless of the skin color of the groups, inevitable provokes distrust and hostility, especially if people with totally opposite set of values live in the same area.

And again, it has nothing to do with skin color, just think of the Religious Wars in Europe. It was white people killing white people, because one group believed in authoritarian centralized religion (Catholics) and the other believed in a more free and libertarian perhaps even secular view (Protestants).

So you can easily see if 2 sets of people who have totally hostile views live in the same zone, regardless of race, they do end up in conflict with eachother.

Conclusion

So it looks like Multi Culturalism does create social chaos and mayhem, while a Homogenous Culture with different races living together, sharing the same values, does not.

• So if you import tons of Middle-Eastern people into Europe, who have a right-wing theocratic culture, into a secular semi-democratic free speech loving zone, it will inevitably end up in conflict.
• On the other hand in the USA you have a pretty similar culture between Blacks and Whites, both of them breath the same polluted air, all of them eat the same fast food garbage, both of them drink the same Fluoridated water and pretty much share similar goals and aspirations (the racial conflict there is pretty much caused by the media and the Government)

So if you have a decent American black guy who is a dentist, a car mechanic or a businessman, there is really not much cultural difference there as opposed to his white counterpart. Now if there is a black guy from the ghetto, then there are obvious differences, but not racial, since if it were a white guy from a ghetto, he would behave in a similar way.

So even this ghetto/gangster culture is the same in all skin colors, but it is a different culture from the general population of hard working decent citizens.

Even in Europe you have some sub-cultures an inevitable conflict between Marxists and Christians, what is left of them anyway, but usually peaceful. But when you import Middle-Easterners who have a totally opposite world view to both of them, especially not afraid to use unjustified violence to invoke their religious fanatic beliefs. Then we have a problem.

So the obvious solution here is to not import people of different culture. And look I am not saying that Middle-Easterners are not welcome in Europe. They are if they are secular, civilized, and embrace western values. But if they are religious fanatics, then they are not welcome, Europe has already moved on from religious wars, we don't need that crap back.

So religious fanatics should go back and only come back after they have embraced secular civilized values. And this is not racism, this is opposition to a fanatic theocracy.

If there is a decent secular person, regardless of his skin color, he may very well come. There are probably many good people who want to immigrate, like architects, engineers, doctors, and so on. They can come, but only if their view is compatible with secular western views.

I think this is the best solution to this immigration issue, where the White-Supremacists want to ban all non-whites, which is very evil and racist. And the Marxists who want to let in anyone regardless of their incompatible cultures. My golden mean position is to only let in those that have similar views, regardless of their skin color, but only if they really embrace the European values. It is the best compromise.

If a billion Libertarians want to immigrate to Europe, I will welcome them with warm hugs !!
