In fact, there are up to 2.6 million Ukrainian refugees (Germany accepted 150). So here’s my question:
Why did Europe open its doors to Syrian refugees (read: economic migrants from indeterminate locations), and not Ukrainian refugees (read: Ukrainian refugees)? It becomes clear when you see how Germans treat the refugees from Africa and the Middle East, even though there’s no civil war in some of those countries, unlike Ukraine. This is a fine example of how Europeans really feel about Ukrainians; it shatters all illusions about Europeans treating Ukrainians as equals.
Basically, he argues that it’s to Europe’s advantage to keep Ukraine weak and in turmoil, both economically (so that it can get cheap resources) and presumably politically (to keep Russia busy). So much for morality. ...
Social justice warriors, be they in Germany or Sweden just wouldn’t get any brownie points for helping Ukrainian refugees. In fact, they’d look racist for helping white people, when there were brown people in need.
I know this sounds callous and stupid. It is.
But it’s also true. It’s how these people think.
And until the culture shifts, I think it will only get worse. https://medium.com/@SpencerPMorrison/there-are-2-6-million-ukrainian-refugees-humanitarian-superpower-germany-accepted-150-of-them-a8b5670a0bfe
