Another unfulfilled prophecy is that non-European immigrants would maintain their high fertility in the US and other Western countries. In reality, their fertility has fallen dramatically. Fertility rates are now lower among Asian Americans and African Americans than among Euro Americans, and the same will probably happen for Hispanic Americans. I discussed this point earlier in Aporia Magazine: https://www.aporiamagazine.com/p/trump-white-americas-savior
Northwest Europeans seem to have a higher tolerance for individualism and social atomization. Consequently, when other human populations migrate to a Western country, the adverse effects are much greater for them than for the indigenous Western population.
We see similar adverse effects when non-Western countries embrace the program of Western atomization. South Korea is an extreme example, but the same holds true for most of East Asia and, increasingly, Latin America.
Things are quite different in the inland North. While immigrants are basically swimming in American popular culture, Amish, Mennonites and Laestadians form seperate cultural groups, even though their ancestors have lived in the United States. If you prefer to live in the old America, I strongly recommend moving to the Lake Superior region, (e.g Duluth, Marquette or anywhere in between).
Crime would be considerably higher if it weren't for a larger prison population relative to the 1970s (let alone the 1920s), though there was a 10-15 year period where both crime and incarceration shrunk. Was that purely a function of demographic ageing among ADOS?
why is the debate Great Replacement Theory versus multiculturalism?
I dont know when we lost the plot on the melting pot concept. from my humble, circumstantial perspective that shit works better than any sort of race or demographic segregation
think the problem is straight up cash in pocket and all the identity shit is a red herring
generally confused by both the lefties and righties tbh. willing to discourse if you want
People assimilate to the degree they were similar to begin with. That's why with Europeans you get the melting pot, and with others - multiculturalism.
maybe? what I have seen with my own eyes would be communities with enough money enable the melting pot regardless of country of origin
I know people of European heritage that are very ethnic, and I know people of Latin, Middle Eastern, African and Asian heritage that are some of the most melted, basic ass Americans
down for whatever works but those with power have and continue to use stupid shit to divide us and use their capital for rent seeking activities
“ The Great Replacement will make America a worse country.”
Of course. This line belonged in paragraph one, the rest of the article simple commentary. A country is no more than its people—and we are replacing native stock with inferior substitutions. The country now has a National IQ of 98 and is declining rapidly. In this regard a “great leveling” is occurring throughout the West with the rest of the world. Mediocrity is on the rise and AI won’t solve the problem, albeit it will mask it for a time.
There is a reason we became the greatest power in the world and it will be the same reason we become a second rate power such as your example, Brazil. The “shopping mall” unity phenomena will subside as we continue become a bipolar society of haves and have nots.
There will not be a blending of races to the betterment of all, but a stark contrast between those on the top and everyone else. Heck, it’s already here, but old memories die hard.
I think in the next 15-20 years, there will be a political party whose explicit goal is secession of a part of the United States. I think the most likely part is the area of the Northwestern US bounded roughly by the Cascade Range, Great Salt Lake and Bismarck, ND.
The platform of this party will probably not be explicitly racist. Although it will be driven by a sense of the still largely white population of this area that they have little in common with the rest of the United States or its federal government, their demands will be phrased in libertarian terms. It will be similar to Alberta secessionists today.
This party will likely also elect many state or local politicians who will explicitly attempt to curb migration from other parts of the United States. Besides opposing new development, they will create new regulatory hurdles for people from other locations who want to work, buy property or do business in their states and cities.
"While immigration has certainly changed much, it hasn’t quite “Balkanized” the country."
It is too early to make that statement.
"They fully embrace the slop of 21st century America. They may not care for our history and heroes, but they do love our malls, movies and snacks."
Those things are not what made America great; they are actually part of the problem with current America.
"We now have a country where people are fatter, dress shabby, smoke weed in public, display tattoos, and share little in common besides sports fandom and the pursuit of consumer goods."
Indeed, that is true, plus they are less ambitious and have little desire for knowledge.
"It was expected that non-whites would band together as a rainbow coalition against whiteness. That hasn’t panned out."
That is in process currently, sadly, with the help of stupid whites.
"But the primary driving force for the far-left in America are the “Yuccies”. These are college-educated creative types who are experiencing relative downward mobility. They’re the ones backing Antifa, joining the Democratic Socialists of America, and leading online cancellation mobs."
The term 'college-educated' is used here to imply a class level above the average. The vast majority of current college degrees are useless. A better term would be college-indoctrinated.
"White nationalists were once confident that a diverse America would make whites embrace racial consciousness. That event has yet to happen. Just 15 percent of whites say their racial identity is important to them, which stands in stark contrast to the majority of every other group who say that identity is important to them."
And herein lies a big problem. White Americans are slow on the uptake. Insouciance runs rampant among whites.
"Demographic change has also not increased crime. Crime has, in fact, fallen."
That is open to interpretation. Crime statistics are a political football.
"The Great Replacement will make America a worse country. But it likely won’t fall apart like Pat Buchanan predicted in Suicide of a Superpower."
That is small comfort, and it is too early to make a final prognosis.
Bottom line: Yes, demographics is destiny, and as with anything, quality over quantity. The current IQ of the average American is 100. Immigration of people with an IQ considerably below that paints a bad future.
Recently, I went to a networking event in downtown Washington, DC for company founders—and just about everybody there is an immigrant.
Everybody who's starting companies, founding companies—almost every entrepreneurial person is an immigrant.
Where are all the white Americans in this?
Not to be seen...
So...I think you missed the biggest unifier of all, that ties together the Guatamalan house cleaner with her own business, to the taco lady with her truck-based taco business.
Because -- why do people come to this country?
Traditionally, the reason is that there really are more opportunities here.
There has been less bureaucracy than most places. The rule of law most of the time.
As a result, there has been more of an entrepreneurial can-do spirit and still is.
Small business owners and founders are respected in the USA.
People can come here, speak no English, and found a successful yogurt brand.
His point is that immigrants are, in general, innovators and entrepreneurial go-getters.
In reality, that description matches only a minority of immigrants, and most of them are of European or East Asian origin, as well as from certain communities in South Asia. This can be seen when we look at patent applications by national origin.
A misleading statistic is the number of startups by national origin, since a person who declares bankruptcy multiple times will appear in the statistics as someone who has started up multiple companies. In reality, it's usually the same company.

80% of innovation is Whites/Jews
20% is East Asians, which is kind of pathetic considering their numbers
All other peoples are rounding errors
