>the Western civilization is dying >the West is in decline
Can someone explain this meme to me? How is the West in decline, exactly? Who is overtaking it? From an economic and militaristic standpoint it's on the the top, with no serious contenders (inb4 China or Russia, come on).
Is this about culture? But what is exactly wrong about Western culture nowadays? When was Western culture "not dying" so to speak, and why is that moment culturally superior to present time?
Honestly, it just seems like baseless fear mongering, masquerading as some profound and deep statement.
Large scale immigration from Muslim countries, and a native western population without any clear values or things to believe in, who care more about buying the latest iPhone than preserving their heritage and culture, the things making their countries unique.
The political and academic discourse is apologizing to countries that were colonized and offering to compensate for this out of guilt. This is unheard of in previous times; every significant culture has been a colonizer at some point, and never apologized for it.
Growing distrust in the political system and our politicians, as they're perceived to be more corrupt now than in the past.
Etc.
Xavier Jenkins
It's more that other countries are developing and modernizing rapidly thanks to neoliberalism raising people around the globe out of poverty and creating new wealth. It's only a matter of time until they are on even footing with the already developed western countries and eventually overtake them.
Cooper Hernandez
The people not in power who want to be in power always say the group in power is leading them to destruction.
Jason Bennett
Most people in the West perceive their culture as not being worth fighting for. That alone should tell you how bad the situation really is. Add in low birth rates contrasted to immigrants with triple birth number. Production outsourced to "backwards" parts of the world. Welfare states that while being generous are being taken advantage of. Overwhelming mentality of indifference. Religion, the social glue that traditionally held society together, is bleeding out in a slow, painful death. Monogamy, the essential cornerstone of any civilization has been destroyed by greedy divorce lawyers, selfish feminists, and hedonists. All of this is totally unsustainable in the long term. And it wont last long. After all, few are going to fight in defense of the West.
Jack Harris

Nicholas Perry
>How so? Immigrants are outbreeding the native Western people. The consequence of this is that the native culture will vanish and make room for muslim culture. Most major cities in Europe are already over half muslim and their birth rate is twice if not more than that of feminist Europeans. See where this is going? >Who's attacking? The muslims. Their imams have been caught preaching this strategy of outbreeding "we will conquer Europe not by the sword but by the uterus". It is barely a secret at this point, but Europe refuses to fight back and just keeps on talking about human rights, while their homeland is transforming to a mulsim state.

For now. Fertility rates decrease as countries develop.

Vanish my ass. It's like you take two points on a graph and declare that we're undoubtedly witnessing a linear progression.
>Most major cities in Europe are already over half muslim

And jews have been caught talking about enslaving the goyim race.

Keep up your naivety. Abdul really cares about pluralistic secular multicultural societies. Along with all of the Saudi princelings promising to build expensive mosques for every 1000 refugees. No ulterior motive at all. Nope...

>Is this about culture? But what is exactly wrong about Western culture nowadays? When was Western culture "not dying" so to speak, and why is that moment culturally superior to present time?
For me personally, modern western culture is inherently shallow, materialist and nihilistic, it lost purpose and will to higher ideals, it is also very divided based on subcultures and individuals and as said, it lost pride and belief in itself In contrast, other peoples like Asians for ex. still have that reverence for higher ideals
I hate racism and I don't even think Immigrants are the main problem though they do contribute to it, the main problem is the westerners itself and their values, leave them alone and they will still be homogenous degenerates, what the west need is to unify under new ideal and belief in itself once more
The thing is, you don't even have to be an altright retard to see that there's something very wrong with western society, Im not even white btw
Asher Roberts
>there's something very wrong with western society
What's wrong with it?
Liam Nelson
Nice meme stats. Good enough to whipe my ass with and meaningless.
Let's talk about why it's acceptable for France to be 7.5% Muslim in the first place and why the average left cuck believe it's imperative to bring in even more.
Justin Williams
>For now. Fertility rates decrease as countries develop. This is an assumption. I would argue that feminism decreases fertility rate. The observation is that immigrants have immensely higher birth rates. Period. >Vanish my ass. It's like you take two points on a graph and declare that we're undoubtedly witnessing a linear progression. There is practically no evidence that muslim immigrnats are adapting to their new environment despite countless studies investigating this. Most point to the opposite: muslims have no desire to integrate, yet demand others to give in to all sorts of Islam traditions. >Most major my ass. Name ten. Or five even. You won't and here's why: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_the_European_Union_by_Muslim_population Old data from bolsjewikipedia. Have a look at migrant proportions by birth. White flight is already reality. Few want to live in large cities. you want five city names: Marseille, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Rotterdam. I did not even have to mention Sweden. >And jews have been caught talking about enslaving the goyim race.
t. /pol/ pro Not an argument. >I actually don't, but neither do you. I'm also sure your American, haven't been to Europe and get your info from /pol/ exclusively. I am Dutch and have never been to the US. But my nationality is not relevant to this discussion.
Jose Collins
I bet you're the average leftard who cares about female rights, tolerance...etc right?
How does it feel to know that it's because of you guys that European women in a century will be deprived of their most basic right? I never understood how tolerance of homos and desire for female rights could coexist with the will to export millions of intolerant muslims who hate all those concepts
Parker Ortiz
>The observation is that immigrants have immensely higher birth rates.
Because they're from undeveloped countries where it's the cultural norm for women to be baby factories and little else. This is how western culture was until technology reduced the need for it. The same thing happened to eastern cultures who modernized. There's no reason to assume it's not the norm.
Josiah Cruz
>modern western culture is inherently shallow, materialist and nihilistic
So? It's still working.
>Nice meme stats. Good enough to whipe my ass with and meaningless.
Surely you have proof for these claims, and can provide alternative stats, along with evidence that they are correct?
>Let's talk about why it's acceptable for France to be 7.5% Muslim in the first place
Why isn't it?
John Brown
And they let them enforce it? Hardly.
>Saudi princelibgs building expensive mosques for every 1000
More like "send radical imams to fuck shit up in ME, lose track of them, only to finally find them again when the imams get arrested for having tried to brainwhat the Muslims communities in Europe."

What's funny to me is I've never, ever, seen one of these "The glories of Western civilization are on the decline and must be preserved from the mud people at all costs" working in a place of cultural preservation, like at a museum, digitizing archival records, or teaching art history.
Oliver Brooks
Of course not. How many people can you redpill about brown people and DA JOOOOZ working at a museum?
Joshua Evans
>You know why. Because it triggers your fragile snowflake feels?
Brody Torres
Well, maybe you're right Maybe these millions of muslims who arrive each years and all have 4 children each will end up adapting to European culture before native Europeans disappear, and will thus continue their legacy That's the gamble leftards are making
But I doubt it'll happen that way I think Europe will turn into another backward shithole like every place ruled by islam

Yeah, museums sure will be useful when Shariah law will be enforced by the state...

Ian Foster
In risk of sounding like /pol/, certain group of westerners hate them self very much to the point of ethnomasochism, which could never be seen in any other place in the world, on the other side, the conservative part of the western world is obsessed with domination and shallow historicism, most of them have superiority complex, they missed the point of what is truly essential
Only on surface level, psychologically western world is very fractured
Austin Brooks

Because France was 5% muslim the year before, and 3% the year before that Guess what it means?
Luke Perry

Women are made for giving birth. Its their biological function. Dont confuse this with culture. You are blatantly ignoring a demographic time bomb. Look at the trends. Poor quality post, man. >Of course. Everything we say is an assumption. And some assumptions have more basis in reality than others. >Neither is "Their imams have been caught preaching this strategy of outbreeding "we will conquer Europe not by the sword but by the uterus"." If you are going to sweep aside any evidence that is screaming in your face, I do not know what will convince you or where to even start. Because France should remain French. Just like any nation has the right to retain its distinct culture.
Justin Moore

Fuck off of my country, REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Levi Taylor
I didn't know "rapefugees" raided costal cities with stolen warships or conquered areas to make new nations out of them. Must have missed that.
Also: the perception in the Roman Empire was of eternal decline in terme of culture and military might, until the last century, in which rulers started to believe the Empire was eternal.
Gabriel Mitchell
>The reasons have been mentioned in this thread Can you articulate them?
>if you visit a Parisian maternity ward Have you?
>the reasons will be clear as day the next time a random city on the French Riviera is flowing with blood Will they? Millions and millions of muslim invaders have entered Fortress Evropa, but you can count terrorist acts on one hand. Kinda low effort for the brown conquerors.
Why are you comparing Roman empire with the West?

>Multiculturalismo is always inherently good
That is not the point most of the time when it comes to refugees, the choice is not based on whether "import" them or not, the decision has to be' made in what to do about the fact they are coming and they will keep coming for the foreseeable future, save science-fiction-worthy scenarios. Obviously it would be' easier to just tell them to fuck off, but there is only so much you can do.
With that in kind, would you prefer have them honest-to-God segregated and left to their own devices, lettino them all' forum a resentment thatwill end in a verità le bloodbath, or try to give them a chance and have only SOMETIMES, EVENTUALLY a terrorist attack and a slight growth of crime?

Not the least persons in the islamic world. A simple google search reveals this. >who can say we don't have another 1000 years left? Demographic trends. How do you worship technology?

Logan Sanchez
>How do you worship technology? The pic was related.
Gavin Torres
I think for them the sticking point is "privilege" or development rather than cultural subversion (though of course there are certainly those who promote this stuff for totally misguided or wrong reasons). I think many whites now don't understand the value of culture so it makes a tough argument of "why do you have more right to be here than they?" Beyond that there's a perception among many that the "white" countries are more advanced, more fortunate, and thus more attractive for immigrants. I dunno, I think there's more to the dynamic than you mention is all.
Oliver Watson
Maybe because, aside from Lebanon, United Emirates and Nigeria, noone of them have people migrating to it. If refugees could, they all' would go to Germany, Sweden, UK, France and Norway. Needless to say, this is absurd both for he refugees and the hostcountries.
Jeremiah Collins
It's not some campaign to wipe out white culture, though. White nations are full of immigrants because white nations and generally nice places to live than dark-skinned nations. Nobody wants to move to the Congo.

The numbers of people willing to fight for their country may be skewed as a result of most wars involving western nations being of very little consequence to their citizens. The muslim nations, however, have large populations who's very livelihood has hung on the outcome of a war at one point or another.
Justin Powell

Not yet. With the infinite abundance of the internet info, surely you can find more people than three branded lunatics (one killed) and a career politician?
Sebastian Anderson
So, what you are saying is that people owning little more than what they can carry in a luggage (if that) are not going in a trek that goes deeper in the warzone they were escaping from, across half of Asia, then find somebody willing to ferry them to an island nation on the other side of the Sea... because europeans are dumb? How many neurons do you have exactly?
Mason Russell
BoSfag here, it was the Enclave and House who wanted to go into space, but both of their visions were not able to be realized because they wished to force the Old World onto the New World. The BoS did worship technology, but they wanted to collect and preserve it so that the Great War and the mistakes of the Old World could not be created again. They wanted to be the gatekeepers of technology and the safegaurds of humanity, not space colonists.
Asher Rivera
Im not talking about Fallout though, I'm just saying what should be done in real life. I posted BOS because they worshiped technology.
Bentley Green
Get out of here /pol/ your pseudo-science isn't your worth here.
Camden Carter
Yet they have been given positions to preach their "insanity". What does that tell you about the muslim world? Furthermore, two heads of state were mentioned. Surely, you cannot simply discard those as fringe "lunatics"? They are not random idiots, they are key figures pivotal in the muslim world. Your explanation is doubtful. The question was explicitly stated as "would you be willing to fight for your country?". You are spinning results in such a manner until they fit your perspective.
Mason Myers
But it is wise to learn from the mistakes of the many chapters of the BoS, like the Mojave Chapter. Elijah's zeal for technology brought his own chapter to it's knees. It is never the religion or article of worship that destroys, it is always the zeal for that worship that does. This goes for worshiping technology and Gods.
