There's a huge difference between "anti immigrant" and "anti illegal immigrant"
Do we really need to discuss it, Geo?

How many bombs will the president drop over the next 4 years? Will he be a warhawk?

I do not think a clash of cultures is preventable. The polarisation between Western Civilization and pre-modern attitudes will only worsen, due to the cultural alliance between Neo-Communism and Islam. Trump represents this intuition, in my view.geo wrote:a clash of cultures that might otherwise be preventable.

You know a good deal about the world, Robert. Do you see no instances at all where Islam and other worldviews coexist? Even just a few examples would render the inevitable-clash-of-cultures prediction questionable. In fact, this prediction is very much in the way of a self-fulfilling prophecy. The motivation behind it is more about not wanting to cede cultural space to "others" than it is to save us from a threat.Robert Tulip wrote:I do not think a clash of cultures is preventable.
