Davidf, I know there are non-white countries with fertility rates below replacement - I mentioned Japan. These countries are not getting swamped with immigrants as ours are. I believe it is planned.

1. What do you mean by education? Do you mean indoctrination? People are propagandised with the idea that having more than two children is greedy - I have noticed this through schooling and through media, particularly throughout university (when I am in a sector of no relevance to overpopulation). Despite Australia having a fertility rate below replacement for 36 years, we're still bombarbed with the endless overpopulation propaganda. Dare to blame immigration? You will be called a nazi, bigot, bogan, racist, supremacist. It's only now, when we're about 15% non-white (and much more when baby-boomers die) that an attempt (very poor one at that) is made to increase fertility rates. Is this slight increase due to ~education?~
2. Also, when regarding education, why is there no ~education~ about the decline of white people? Italy, Spain, Greece, Ukraine, Germany, Russia are at suicidal levels - why is there no attempt to keep the natives alive? By definition in the UN convention as I posted, it is effectively genocide - it will become much more apparent when the baby boomers are gone.

The most powerful way to destroy my people is through indoctrination under the guise of ~education~.

The word education has become dirty. It is now like "tolerant," "accepting" and "diversity" - these words are the opposite to epithets that strike fear into us whites. People think they're just wonderful and fanciful.

I'm sorry but I don't believe Italians, who are notorious world-wide for having large families and Italy being home to catholicism and the vatican, are now having 1.3 children each. Even in Australia, 28% of Italian-Australian women do not have kids. This is not just education, this is planned.

Dear observed,

Who planned it? Who is behind it? What advantage are they getting from it?

Davidf and observer,
Why don't you blokes start a thread on birth rate or overpopulation?

In the mean time have a google on Iran family planning. They lowered the birth rate from 6.5 per woman to less than 2. This needs to be done in the countries that are subject to famine.

Funny thing, the delegates in neither Copenhagen or Durban had a session on overpopulation. Yet a reduction there would lower carbon emmissions.

There's misunderstanding of what I was saying about capitalism. davidf, my point was that anti-immigrationists prefer to scapegoat new arrivals and blame them for unemployment when, in my view, the source of unemployment is capitalism - which they do not blame. The right-wing reactionary critique of capitalism that has been expressed in some comments here opposes its progressive qualities. For instance, to the capitalist class in general wage labour is colourless - skills are what matter in the age of globalisation, not skin tone. The reactionary 'anti-capitalist' right also opposes globalisation, the inevitable process that Marx so accurately foresaw in the mid-C19th. Yet this globalisation has created the conditions for a truly human outlook in which skin tone really is meaningless. Capital will always go where labour is cheap and labour will always seek out higher wages. Workers of the world unite! Open the borders!

David f, please don't try to kid us there isn't a racism problem in the good old U.S. of A. - just check the stats for imprisonment rates.

What is racism? Is it being wary of 'difference' or is it really acting to restrict opportunity for those of difference? I think it is primarily the latter, and rates of crime, civil disobedience and imprisonment tend to reflect the limitations of opportunity for any group. Hence, in Aus you could surmise that the group most discriminated against in our midst are our own indigenous people.

Is our government doing the right thing with its immigration policy? Is adequate provision made for educating new immigrants about Australia, its laws, language, culture and employment opportunities and demands? Or are new arrivals left very much to fend for themselves, and hence tend to aggregate to ethnic enclaves? I think our demography spells it out fairly clearly. And, are Australians given adequate education about new arrivals being introduced into their midst, afforded meet and greet fora, given opportunity for a cultural exchange to afford better understanding and cooperation? I haven't seen evidence of such.

Immigration is a complex matter, and our government has neither provided sufficient justification for their policies nor provided adequate facility for the integration of new arrivals within our community. Immigration should be based on shared need and on adequate services and acquaintance-ship provisions. Unless such basic requirements are met effectively there will always remain settlement problems.

We are a relatively small population in any global comparison, and immigration exodus is a very significant worldwide problem, and with it problems of accommodation, employment and civil order. A worldwide resolution is required.

P.S. I think it was a pretty poor article.
