@chessamateur42 saidIs there a problem with housing, education and health in Holland? If so, is it possible that these problems are related to immigration? Also, is it not possible for the government to tackle several problems at a time? Or do you believe they cannot speak of immigration unless housing, education and health are dealt with first?
I see comments like Islam is evil.
In Holland, we also have people saying this (actually, the party where the leader says nothing about education housing health etc. but is one issue ´Islam out´, has gotten the most votes...).
Still, I think this is not way to go.
If you don´t like the Islam, you just do not join it.
Like TV: hate a show, then do not watch it.
A ...[text shortened]... olice for those things. And they arrest all villains, not because they are Islamic, but all of them.
It is not simply a matter of not joining Islam. The issue is that Islam does not assimilate ie fit in well with western civilization all over the world. They are currently attempting to force their beliefs on other cultures in many parts of the world.
@Rajk999 saidKeep your head in the sand if you want to.
What an absolutely ridiculous comment. I dont need to look up anything. What does that have to do with what is going on right under your nose in 2025? Here is what is happening in one country [and there are many such atrocities all over the world in many Islamic states], Nigeria in the last few months. With the help of Perplexity AI ;

April 13–15:
40–56 Christians killed in a Palm Sunday attack in Zike/Bassa (Plateau State)123.
Btw the Fulani Militants have been killing Muslims since 2019 too.

@Lundos saidHow is my head in the sand when you are the one suggesting that we ignore Islamic atrocities ... Why??? ... because Christians committed atrocities 1500 years ago. Are you right in your head?

@sonhouse saidI agreed with most of the US conditions Harvard has to meet in order to get taxpayer money except the part about telling the university to keep lists of people doing "unamerican activities" and submitting the list to the federal government.

Cutting off all fed aid to Harvard, now wanting to stop foreigners from entering Harvard.
Following the authoritarian playbook.
Universities are banding together for the legal battles to come.

Smacks of Hoover and McCarthy all over again. As if the US gov agencies aren't tracking those people anyway! ha!
@Rajk999
It is possible to work on more problems at the time, but some parties here don't want to do that. And looking at their number of votes, neither do a lot of people.
If statistically more Islamic people are villains, then more prisoners will be Islamic as a consequence. But it does not mean you can solve something by throwing them all out.
Say more violent criminals are below 60 (seems plausible). I don't think it will solve anything by throwing everyone under 60 out of the country.
@chessamateur42 saidI heard an idea once to take males age 18-22 (peak crime years) and put them in prison while they complete either college or vocational training. The end result would be a lot less crime.

@Indonesia-Phil saidOk, lets do better. Education can be used as a tool for indoctrination and it is the case in many countries, especially those that dislike capitalism, or religions opposed to Christianity. There are extreme cases like in Gaza where kids young as 5 are taught to kill Jews., plus all the curriculum is designed around training an army of terrorists. I certainly did not mean that all education is indoctrination.
Your words in an earlier post here '....it takes a man like Trump and his government to bring it (society) back to sanity.' are open to interpretation, but okay, I put a word in your mouth which wasn't there, so I'll take that on the chin and apologize. I'm not aware of any other 'insults', if that's how you regard it, and in the post to which I'm now replying, to call ...[text shortened]... u go....I hereby leave the discussion, with no hard feelings, for what's the point in hard feelings?
You have a nice life in Indonesia apparently. Saw a few Youtube videos of the place and its the kind of place I would like to live. Cities, malls and shopping are not my thing either. Good for you.
@wildgrass saidThat would certainly work in some of the inner city areas of the US where violent crime in that age group is about 75% of the population.
I heard an idea once to take males age 18-22 (peak crime years) and put them in prison while they complete either college or vocational training. The end result would be a lot less crime.
@wildgrass saidAll males who are idle, not in college, not employed etc.
All males though. No exceptions.
@Rajk999 saidWould you want exempt individuals in your system of persecuting Muslims? Of course not.
All males who are idle, not in college, not employed etc.
All males 18-22. They can do college and work while imprisoned.
There would be an added bonus of fewer alcoholics and degenerate gamblers in society too. I think once we accepted this as a society and it passed through a few generations, it would be awesome.
@wildgrass saidNot sure what Muslims have to do with it. American society, where there is a high % of innercity black communities, has degenerated. These communities have the highest abortion rates, highest crime rates, lowest marriage rate and the lowest % of children raised by married mothers and fathers. These societies produce the highest % of criminals, drug pushers, rapists and murderers. Yet nobody seems to be able to deal with these issues. You certainly lack focus.

I was talking about a demographic of people (young males) that statistically commit a huge proportion of the crime. Murder rate is like 3x higher compared to everyone else.
If we just lock them all up, crime would dramatically decrease. They would enter society at age 23 as non criminals with a whole life ahead of them.
You seem to want exemptions for certain people based on skin color? Or what?
