Just two weeks ago was the last time. Even Joe Biden himself said that Whites would be a minority in the US, and that is a good thing.
We'll see more violence in the future I think, because it is very hard to tell people something they can *see* is happening, is not actually happening.

The odd thing is, I've noticed many people tend to spend time with people of their own ethnic background more often than not. One example is that I see very few interracial couples.

How is something, which is easily observed, now a "conspiracy theory"? If

I think that Arelor hit the nail on the head.
What I will say about it is that there are many here in the US who will claim it is a conspiracy theory in the sense that some believe the government, or others, are doing things to cause it or to help speed it along. They will claim it is a conspiracy theory because they believe that government/organizational/inorganic involvement is false.
Thing is, it is not 100% false. I cannot say for certain that the government is doing so because I do not have any knowledge of that.
But I do know someone who works for a religious charity who, at least before COVID, was indeed involved in actively traveling to Central American countries (that are supposedly super dangerous but, if they
were, I don't honestly think they'd go) to assist/encourage persons
with aspirations of entering the United States to do so by coaching
them on what to say and do to get here, and then waiting at the boarder for persons they've coached to arrive.
The charity is doing so, I believe, in order to help encourage more
people to join their church in the US. As these are mostly Catholic-dominated countries the people are coming from, I am not sure
how that works since that is not the religion of the charity. I assume they are hoping that these people will convert.
The person who is working for the charity may be doing so for religious reasons, but I can also 100% guarantee that this person would not be
doing so if they believed there was any chance at all that the people
who are coming would, if they ever become citizens, be prone to vote
for Republicans as that would 100% go against their own political convictions.
So, there are oganizations that are indeed actively bringing persons
into the country in hopes that they will replace other religions, and there are at least some persons who are working with them in hopes that the persons will replace other political beliefs.
So, although some of what the people who believe replacement theory is
an active thing might believe may be 100% untrue, the theory itself is
not 100% a conspiracy no matter who claims it is.

You bet.
The Ministry of Equalty in Spain is burning through more money than the Welf one, while the Socialized Welfare system is clearly overloaded beyond its capabilities.
However, the Welfare Ministry produces tanglible results (ie. you see Hospit with Doctors and Nurses working in them). Meanwhile the Equalty Ministry produces a couple of parades per year?
My hipothesis is they are getting a whole load of budgetary money with the excuse of running diversity programs and then just pocketing the money. THer is the profit you are wondering about.

In the largest city in Kentucky, where they had plenty of night problems, the daytime protesters did not seem to be the same usually. At least, they did not *act* the same. The ones that came out at night were the violent ones. The ones during the day, where there were much fewer of them (protesters and protests) were usually more peaceful. Except, of course, the ones that were attempting carjackings in broad daylight on a busy

Yes, this is true.
A few years ago, when there was a huge migration from Africa and the Middle East, some of the "newer" western countries (those formerly a
part of the Iron Curtain) were upset with the EU because it was EU
policy that their countries must take in their fair percentage of migrants. IIRC, Hungary was one of the countries that was not happy
with this.
In the US, it seemed to be known that it was a policy, and it was inappropriate to insinuate that a country should have rights to
determine whether or not they conform to such policies.
Similarly, the US over the years has changed how they handle
immigration, softening the way that people of certain national origins
can get in (cross the southern border, shout "asylum!") while keeping
it difficult for persons from other nations.

My grandparents are from Southern Europe, yet increasingly I'm being cons as part of the evil colonisers. Why? Because I'm considered to be Europ and therefore part of the problem.
I've wondered two what the benefit is, why there is such a push for socia justice and white guilt. It does benefit some who stand to earn a lot of as Diversity consultants, and to get paid to speak about racism, but that by why this idea started.
But why Western nations decided that the melting pot is the model, and to decide this with such certainty, to the point where anyone questioning wa just of a different opinion, but morally wrong, that is strange. It seem of those beliefs which everyone is adamant about, but just doesn't seem t a reasoning which justifies the adamant attitude.

John F Kennedy had a saying, "rising tides raise all yachts." This concept is about anything that benefits one group can benefit others. Unfortunately it seems like human nature in order to help one group, you must oppress or hold back another. A good example is hiring quotas back in the 60's and 70's and lowered entrance exam scores for minorities. Instead of openeing doors and letting culture to move at it's own speed, someone was denied a job because of their status regardless. Diversity training is supposed to open people's eyes to recognize there is no single race or gender that corners the market on any skill, however on the management side the message coming from HR is hire the most diverse person even if they aren't the best qualified. Imagine if a basketball team was required to adhere to these rules?
How many teams have a quadraplegic dwarf that identifies as a vampire on their starting lineup? I have nothing against quadaplegic dwarf vampires, mind you. People do not watch sports because of reasons other than athletic abilit y. Black players moved from the negro leagues to the major leagues because they can throw, hit and field a baseball. Some people thrw a fit at first, the en got over it.
It is sad when one thing is said on stage, when it is done differeently behind the scenes. It's like a salesperson selling a product they have no faith in, yet are told to sell it or else lose their job.

I don't think it is about oppression, or the need to put others down. This idea was never thought out in the first place and was a bad idea from the start.
Quotas MUST discriminate. Pushing for diversity MUST discriminate racially. There is no other way around it, never was. The problem is that you couldn' criticise these measures, so no one thought about the ramifications because thinking about the implications of this was forbidden.
Just the idea that someone is more 'diverse' than another is beyond silly. This is LITERALLY Racism, scoring people based on their race. All around companies are doing this for diversity metrics, ranking people on race just like the Third Reich was doing. Let me repeat, it is common practice in the West to literally rate the value of people based on their race, and this is done by people who say they are socially progressive.
I learned over 20 years ago that this is was identity politics, and just a p to attack or diminish one group over an other.

Certain cultures actively discourage their members from getting away from the mothership.
You do have a point there.
I've seen studies about hispanic groups where boys and girls do equally well school, but while the girls finish high school, the boys drop out.
The reason was cultural: the father didn't want their sons to be "smarter" t them.
Halal and Kosher are ideas which seem to me engineered so members of their asociated cultures don t buy food from outsiders to that culture.
And I would agree with that.
But it also has the added result of driving people out of that culture - especially the younger ones.
I've seen areas that basically die off because all the younger people moved away and never came back.

I got the impression they were dropped off during the day, in those places where they were dropped, for use at night, but what you say also makes sense.

I don't know anyone who went because we didn't have any such things going
on in my town (luckily), although there were some threats called in regarding certain buildings that caused them to be closed for a couple of days at a time.

the hispanic areas in my home town are like that too.
the good thing is the kids learn english, but that's it.
Hispanic culture is partly at fault. But for the kids to grow they need good education (which the Left and their fathers don't want) plus business opportunities - which the Left keeps down.
Tell me you don't personally know any Hispanic people without telling
me.
MRO takes the cake on this one though. In Milwaukee, which is 20%
Latino, most of the best performing schools (by graduation rate and
test scores) are over 90% Latino. Supporting data can be found here: https://dpi.wi.gov/accountability/report-cards
Who starts businesses for most of the food trucks, lots of restaurants, roofing and landscaping, etc.? Their parents.
Your mileage may very in the U.S. Southwest. But up here, the best
schools and many of the businesses are started by Latinos.
That is all beside the point. Whether "group X" does better in school or not doesn't change the subject of the debate, that there is a demographic replacement going on. Whether "group X" is better or not doesn't change the moral quandry of creating and supporting policies which deal to a people being demographically replaced.

It's ironic the people that scream rascism act in thoe most rascist
ways. Same group that complains about an oppressive government are also the type that would institute oppressive policies which benefit themselves.

Yes, and you also cannot blame people that, while believing it is an
issue don't want to be forced from the current tech until the new tech
is fully ready (and affordable!), vote for a populist who promises to solve the runaway inflation that is partially caused by the "pain we
need to go through" to transition away from fossil fuels.

I responded to two peoples' spurious, anecdotal, and mostly racist arguments with actual data. So it is not beside the point.
You can go argue with their posts and tell them they're beside the
point.

I do not doubt that. They wanted them right up until the 2020 election was over.

Spent most of my life in the U.S. Southwest. Don't really have an issue with hispanics or immigration, but would prefer it be done legally. I
also think legal immigration, and work visas should be a simpler process
for the most part.
In terms of education, I know a lot of Latinos(as), many who don't even speak Spanish at this point (couple of generations in). My ex wife's
dad had forgotten Spanish years ago (moved here as a young boy, time in
the Marines as a Field Medic and an RN after until he died.)
It's kind of just the way of things... tbh, I'm more concerned for the homeless meth heaads in Portland and Seattle than the hispanics in the Southwest, although numbers at the border aren't sustainable or able to
be absorbed into the country.

The problem I have with illegals is they do not pay taxes
Regarding political refugees, we need to fix the process if there is a legitimiate reason for people to seek asylum. Living in a shitty, backward country isn't enough.
