@shavixmir saidNot special, just part of a group which is headed into extinction in many areas, including the US.
So you mean that being white will make you special?
@eladar saidI'm sure there are plenty of Ukranians who want to immigrate but you won't like them when they get here
I was basing the claim on the percent of immigration from Europe I found on the internet.
In any case, the basic premise has been supported....
US immigration for white people is in the minority.
With a minority position in immigration and low reproduction rate the end is only a matter of time.

@no1marauder saidThe extinction will not be in our lifetime. We will just see a steadily decrease in population proportion in the US.

@eladar saidAnd your problem with that is ????
Calling yourself white is just as useless a description as calling yourself a Christian. Here is something a bit more solid...
https://www.pewresearch.org/hispanic/2020/08/20/facts-on-u-s-immigrants/
The regions of origin for immigrant populations residing in the U.S. have dramatically shifted since the passage of the 1965 Immigration and Naturalization Act. In 1960, 84% ...[text shortened]... up about a quarter of the U.S. immigrant population, followed by 9% who were born in another region.
@eladar saidWe've got too damned many white people as it is. Obviously.
You mean by US immigration policy importing a population 98 percent other than white?
What a surprising result! Fewer white people is only natural.
With the Western World trying to drive down reproduction rates while people like the Taliban are trying to have as many kids as possible, the end result is clear.
@eladar saidIsn't this what drives Republican governors to support voter suppression laws? Scared of losing their power base.
Solid for describing where people are coming from.
Look at the change in percentage of immigration from different regions in the world and you will see it corresponds to the white population in the US being in decline.
@athousandyoung saidHungarians too.

@no1marauder saidExactly.

@eladar saidInstead of fretting over your "white extinction" fears, maybe it's time to embrace the concept of getting along with other members of the same species.

If you want to worry about extinction, worry more about the path our species is on and less about evolving changes to our skin pigmentation.
