    How is that propaganda?

    1. Refugees camps should be closed
    2. After civil war ends, refugees are not refugees anymore so they should come back home (instead giving them citizenship as I could read somewhere)
    3. They should never give them cash
    4. If there is outbreak (like in France) police should capture violent units and send them back (as criminals).

    and so do you.
    To number 4: Do you really think the countries they came from will take them back? We can WANT to send people back all we want, but it won't matter if the countries themselves don't allow the transfer.

    I watched some time ago Syrian christian girl in Poland (during some christian meeting or something) speaking about how it is hard there, but it is their home and she is not staying (even when people said she can stay without any problem).

    I found it!

    Say the war doesn't end for another ten, twenty years. Are you really expecting people that have built a life to just pick up and leave because you don't want another kebab shop down the street?



    Why, exactly.



    I don't think anyone is disputing deporting refugees that commit criminal acts, provided they are convicted of such in a court of law.
    You know, I've been trying to get the why's and how's out of the OP for 2 pages now. Doesn't seem like I'm getting either.

    And as another poster pointed out, buying locally and storing locally isn't always a good option because government and local leaders cannot be trusted.
    Well the pro-immigrant side is the actual majority or not isn't the issue. It's the fact they they make that side look weaker with videos like these.

    One child out of millions of people doesn't really mean much. Of course some will return. Others will not, having seen much greater opportunity in a new country.

    Are you ever gonna respond to my questions about your statements on the economics? Or anything at all really, rather than moving the goalposts and avoiding it, as it feels like you're doing.

    There is always option to buy supplies near place where you need them, as you said yourself. I know how currency works, and EU seems to be worst place to buy food imo.

    I rolled my eyes when I saw it, because I knew that I would see a bunch of crybabies whining about it here.

    Lo and behold, I was not wrong.

    Well I guess then I just linked to propaganda video. True Syrians should be dirty in rags right?

    that little boy that was used for anti-regime propaganda? he didn't flee syria, the rebels used him to push a narrative, then his family fled to the government controlled part of syria, where they live in safety.
    Well I guess this is argument in favor of we being able to help them there.

    I'm afraid of numbers. Besides I think you could look them up yourself. That way you would believe information more since they would not come from 'racist'.

    You're just repeating yourself. I've responded to that already. You can't just state it again...
    THe best place to find QUALITY over quantity. Some EU countries have strict regulations to maintain quality, safety and environmental impact on food production.

    In my experience with the majority of the internet, the opposite is true.

    Your attempt at comically dismissing this tells me you're incapable of supporting your previous statements. So I think you should probably not have made them to begin with or even admit that you've fallen short on this.

    Depends on where you hang out. The internet is especially polarized.

    Why the label right wing? Trolls is all you needed. And they come in all political flavors.

    Left wing trolls generally aren't the ones complaining about this video.

    Context, what is it.

    They have generally less stringent quality control standards and enforcement, yes.
