Why Asians are shifting away from the Republican party.

How do you determine if somebody is "assimilated"? When they look, talk, think, and act the exact same way you do? Since we are all different, nobody could be truely assimilated by that measure.

Maybe you are right. We should beware of the habits of these strangers. We may start to adopt some of them and enjoy things like pizza, beer and sushi. We would be ruined!

The kind of assimilation I am concerned with is mostly political, we need everyone to be in the same ballpark libertywise and the foreigners are expanding our horizons in the wrong direction.
Then there are some considerations that are more practical, like speaking English, or not using the street for a toilet.

[Swordsmyth]

Zippy is a great example of failure to assimilate. Spewing communist propaganda on a liberty forum for over 10 years. Should we give him 10 more or declare this experiment a failure?

[Zippyjuan]

Maybe if they were better educated than the ones who came say 50 years ago it would be OK. We don't need no dummies.

So only let them in if they promise to vote Republican or Libertarian. (keeping in mind that they can't actually vote until they become citizens).

Higher indoctrination is not a cure for the problem.

Let in very few at all and let in less from countries that have a worse political culture.

[Zippyjuan]

But you said you wanted them indoctrinated- to vote just like you do.

[Zippyjuan]

How do you measure "political culture"?

[Swordsmyth]

But you said you wanted them indoctrinated- to vote just like you do.

Assimilation isn't indoctrination.

[Swordsmyth]

How do you measure "political culture"?

There are many ways.

[timosman]

How do you measure "political culture"?

To give you some idea you would be the reference point for 0.

[Zippyjuan]

Assimilation isn't indoctrination.

You have to indoctrinate people to assimilate them. Otherwise you just let them be themselves- even if it is different from everybody else.

[Zippyjuan]

What would be say a "2"? What are we? Are we the zero?

[Swordsmyth]

Not true.

English, please?

[Zippyjuan]

Not true.

How do you assimilate them without indoctrination? You said assimilation meant agreeing with you politically.

2 would be half of what 4 is.

[timosman]

How do you assimilate them?

You let them troll RPF for 10 years and make the final decision after that.

Assimilation is passive, the immigrants and their children absorb Americana by being surrounded by it.

That takes a few generations and is what happens now so I guess you are stuck with things the way they are.

Which is why we need an immigration freeze and then much lower immigration.

Thanks for proving my point.

For you, there will never be a "proper" level of immigration. That does not mean that for the country, the levels are incorrect.

Are you done trolling for today?

They are.

Another 'we're losing votes to the left because we're not smiling enough' thread.

[jmdrake]

Natural democrats. We're surrounded by them.

One of them is occupying the whitehouse.

[jmdrake]

If they loved liberty they would never vote Demoncrat for any reason, but they don't love liberty, they love money and power and they love flooding us with their relatives faster than we can assimilate them.

You really don't understand how self contradictory you are do you?

Someone who loves liberty would want as many of their relatives who aren't living under conditions of liberty to come to a place of liberty. Just look at your own analysis of what happened to the "injuns." The "liberty" loving Europeans wrote back home and said "This place is great! Get on over here as fast as you can!" So a party full of people saying "We don't want your relatives here and we'd rather you go home too." is a natural enemy. You're making your own enemies.

And LOL @ "they love money and power." Ummmm...that's the definition of capitalism. So basically you're saying that they can't be good republicans because they love being rich? Have you totally lost your mind?

[jmdrake]

Another 'we're losing votes to the left because we're not smiling enough' thread.

We are losing votes to the left because we decided to kiss the butts of the people on the right who hate us (people who really love liberty) anyway.

[jmdrake]

Are these your channels? I've seen one of your videos before and wanted to say good work.

This isn't my video but thanks. I did a video back when Rand was running for senate the first time. But that's the only political video I have on YouTube at the moment.

[nobody's_hero]

We are losing votes to the left because we decided to kiss the butts of the people on the right who hate us (people who really love liberty) anyway.

That makes no sense. Because they're angry at people who 'really love liberty' they're voting democrat? Just WTF is the angle? What's that supposed to accomplish? Folks who "really love liberty" maybe comprise 0.5% of the voting population but if we apparently have the power to drive a whole race of people to vote a certain way, how the hell did we lose the 2008 election? LOL.

I'll try to smile more, but if we have to give away free sh*t to compete for votes, these folks can go to hell.
