“Rapey” is how I would describe Stephan Moulyneux facial expressions
Not an argument.
Scout Regiment this is not an argument but ok
it's a joke. "not an argument" is something Stephan replies with when someone in the comment section of his videos insults him instead of debating him.
Scout Regiment ok 😀 sorry I am not really a regular on Stephan’s channel to know those kind of memes. Just pas through some of his videos and I avoid because I need to clean my history after that and I cannot really stand his blink-less intense serious face too much. Sorry for my clumsiness.
Stephan looks exeptional punchable...
17:38 wait... so you're saying... if we treat people like people they are more likely to behave like people?! holy shit! that's revolutionary!
Sadly to rightwing assholes it is revolutionary.
They rather want to cheer on arson on asylum seeker shelters, prohibit migrants from taking on jobs and education but also cut all social assistance for them and then complain that "so many are criminals". (If not flat out claiming, all are).
It seems the fascists are either too dumb or to dishonest to get, that when you have no savings and no regular income from work or government benefits, the only way to survive is begging or crime. And when everybody around you hates you, begging doesn't really seem like an option.
If you compare immigrants or refugees with german citizens on crime rates and compare the same age, sex, and income groups, it even turns out, Germans are far more likely to commit crimes.
Comparing an old, mostly somewhat wealthy residentiary society to a group that is far younger, overproportionally male, and mostly poor and unemployed is statistically stupid if you want to make claims about the tendency to commit crimes of those groups. In criminology there is a statistically proven consensus that being male, being poor, being young and being unemployed are extremely strong indicators for a higher likelihood to commit crimes.
Declaring ethnicity, nationality or culture as the causal factors of crime while completely neglecting all those factors above, is completely ignorant or dishonest. But what else can we expect of those neo-fascist hate mongers?
I'm not right wing, but that is the most childish simplification of a multilayered issue I think I have ever heard.
"As long as we show love, all people will show love back and do no harm". So blatantly naive I just don't even know where to begin
not how it works bud, but okay.
DarkWandererAU calm down. no one said anyone had to love anyone. a basic level of human respect and decency is all that is meant.
@@greyaltaer8788 replace the word love with respect, and the issue is still the same. Some people are so stupid that they will not respect you based on the colour of your skin or the deity you worship (or lack thereof).

It always confuses me how Germany gets the blame for this situation by so many right wingers in foreign nations. Good to see a German who is knowledgable about the facts and can disprove all these douchebags on the internet.
It's weird you would point to The Sleepwalkers as an example of this considering World War 1 didn't actually happen.

It happened, but nowhere near the whole world was involved. But history's written by the winners, so....

Sarcasmitron have we tested all the trenches in verdun for gunpowder???
You know this kind of 'how is everyone so stupid!' tone that a lot of political youtubers like Sargon like to use? I think listening for that is a great way of detecting horseshit.
I strongly agree.
Ian Priest that's why I can't stand most pro communism youtubers
vecvec1111 nice way to deflect,
but yes, this tone is also present in communist commentators. it's almost like... 90% of liberals, progressives and socdems and whatever *aren't* communist.
I said political. I didn't say right wing.
very true! that or they use soft tones with emotive language that leaves more meaning than fact(stephen molyneux and blackpigeon).
Great video. As a Hungarian, I hate to see how effective Orbán's propaganda is on some "skeptic thinkers" in the west when he portrays himself as the savior of the EU. Meanwhile he is building his illiberal state and targeting any opposing thought here. So much for free speech in the face of refugees coming to Europe.
Balázs Ligetfalvi Hey mate, good luck with orban and the hungarian right. I know its getting scarier there with the fascists and nazis getting more bold. But be stalwart against them, fight thrm. Any way you can. Fascists are first of all cowards, and the impetus of progress will leave them behind.
Here in the states we are dealing with Gorkie and his fascist ilk. We are doing what we can as well.
I hope one day both of our nations will leave these fascist shits behind.
Misiame scapegoating you're not different than saying the Jews are conquering Europe
Balázs Ligetfalvi very interesting that you talk about free speech and refugees at the same time when very many outlets outright band stories about the refugee crimes in order to mask the danger they pose.
Also what happens when you find out most of the people that claimed to be refugees are not even Syrian . Also why has Germany refused Ukrainian refugees in 2014?

I cringe so hard every time i hear lauren southern, sargon and all these other youtubers in the "skeptic community" talk about german and european politics..
I thought they were cool at one time, because they were criticizing the parts of "the left" that I disagreed with and had disliked. But it wasn't until they started talking about nationalism that I finally stopped drinking the anti-SJW kool-aid. I cringe at myself for ever supporting the "skeptic community."
I can never take Sargon seriously. He just reminds me of comic book guy from the Simpsons talking about political matters.
I had my 'Sargon-Awakening' when he cited 'Junge Freiheit' (commonly positioned somewhere between hard-right conservatives and fascists) as a source for 'Refugees destroying Germany'. He had already collected plenty of black marks when he, post Cologne, suddenly reversed or rather modified his position on rape. From 'there needs to be evidence' to 'There is no doubt brown men are all rapists'.
I cringe so hard when I remember that.
I would even still hold that Sargon is not stupid.
But he is lazy and shoddy in his reading and sees little reason why political philosophy from after 1800 should concern him...
They are not skeptics. They are rightist extremists.
The problem with Syria is that's way more complex than just two sides fighting against one another, there are a lot of regional powers, local grievances and corporate interest involved.
Just on the local level you have the Syrian Army, Kurdish militias, Turkey-backed rebels, Islamic State and Al-Qaeda. All this sides receive support from multiple places including Turkey, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UK and France. And the United States is allied with several factions while Russia is firmly on the side of the regime.
Dana Herron
Khaddaffi, before he died, warned the west that destroying libya would open the gates from africa to europe.
And good for Russia, even though they're still governed by capitalist pigs over there too. They'll sell out Assad whenever it's convenient. They aren't in favour of Assad per se, only standing firm against further Amerikkkan imperialism. Oh, and why do you say "the regime", prick?
_"hussein was the devil's child..."_
You come from the country of Dick Cheney, bitch. You obviously have not learned yet. Will you ever? Seems unlikely...

It seem that a lot of Europe’s problems can be traced to America and Russia’s petty slap fights
yup, where kinda sitting in the middle. and i'm afraid it wont get much better when china keeps rising.
It still doesn’t excuse European military involvement and support for America’s crusade in the Middle East. May I remind everybody that NATO destroyed Libya, which contributed to the same refugee crisis we see. If Europe actually wanted to make systemic changes to stop a future crisis like this, I would suggest opposing America’s imperialist ambitions in the Middle East far more aggressively.
@@hiddenwoodsben don't worry once we rise we will be back to take our revenge on europe
@@maplesyrup_productionsNo one destroyed Libya but the despot who ruled it for 42 years and refused to listen to his people what NATO did was simply imposing a no fly zone in accordance with the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973, the fighting on the ground was done by libyans and Gaddafi was killed by libyans, you can make the argument that the West's incompetence in handling Libya after Gaddafi was removed resulted in the refugee crisis but to actually blame them for imposing a no fly zone so he can't massacre his own people is crazy but I can't expect anything less of bootlicking dead dictators and spreading disinformation from commies.

There aren't just ignorant about European politics, but American politics as well. In fact I think they know even less about the latter, which is scary to me because there are no doubt many young people here who get their cues from them.
The US alt-right vloggers & all right-wing media makes only disingenuous arguments. Almost half of Americans are such sophists that to them the value of an argument is measured solely by how many people will believe it. I've wasted years of my life trying to teach Epistemology to Sophists.

*It's very simple:* You won't have to host refugees/migrants if the Western world stopped destabilizing their countries.
P.S. Glade to have found your channel.
I don't mean you as an INDIVIDUAL. I mean you as in your government. For it's your government that is the cause of these problems. As for me personally, i volunteer at a refugee institute teaching them English and driving them to places where they can apply for jobs, here in the USA. I find no pleasure in the suffering of others. I do what little i can, because i know if i were in their shoes, i would do the same. That's how America was founded, people feeling here for a better life. "Take care of the poor, the widows, and the destitute" - Jesus.
Who are the rulers? Do you really think Trump wants to really go to war in Syria? He has been against it since 2013 and on multiple occasions. I have a hard time believing he just suddenly changed his mind, he's probably under tremendous pressure from the real rulers.

I know right his stuff inspires me to go out and *very easily* debunk pretty much any right wing bullshit because its pretty much all bullshit these days. There's a reason why the left is called PROGRESSives and the right CONSERVatives. its right in their names the left wants humanity to progress the right thinks everything's good the way it is... Which is why is usually dumb people and rich people who are right wing. They either Love the status quo or don't understand how much better things USED TO BE (in the US), or could be in a global sense. The US was doing its best when we taxed the rich at over 90%! lol Because hate to break it to rich people. Democracy isn't FOR YOU, you already have power and rights and protections.

Thank you so much... All this missinformation bothers me so much... You brought everything back in order...
In order? He simply lied. Lookup "Gauck in India".
The invitation was officially spread by the german head of state in february 2014 and the german regime cancelled their payments to force the refugees to leave their camps. They wanted them in and that is official.
Hans-Joachim Bierwirth
You have no clue how US media ist portraying the crisis and how uneducated people over their are.
This piece gives the Most honestly depiction and looks at the most driving factors than anything Else on the Internet.
The german head of state officially invited colonists/refugees in february 2014 (FOURTEEN, not fifteen), because his stupid party (that of Merkel) demanded that. When german government noticed that did not work as expected, they even tried to force them in by halting the payments for refugee camps. There was no crisis but policy by german government's will, and this channel here is basically german state propaganda full of bullshit. I said: Lookup "Gauck in India" because Joachim Gauck was the head of state in 2014 and you find his invitation easily using google. What i am explaining here isn't some sort of theory but official history. I am german and i strongly opposed Gauck and Merkel in early 2014. I lived through that shit, and this channel here is blatantly lying.
"order? He simply lied. Lookup "Gauck in India".
The invitation was officially spread by the german head of state in february 2014 and the german regime cancelled their payments to force the refugees to leave their camps. They wanted them in and that is official."
I watched it, so? He doesn't invite them.
"the german regime cancelled their payments"
"halting the payments for refugee camps"
Could you provide the official source? Couldn't find it.
All I found is that Germany is giving money like crazy in financial aid to ...for example...Afghanistan
Btw. Gauck talks about uninteresting stuff...he is only the Bundespräsident without any power lmao
I wish I could show this to my family but roping them into sitting down to watch a youtube video for 25 mintues is a hard sell, more so they have short attention spans.
It’s always funny when I hear people say „the collapse of Germany“, since we in Germany haven’t had any negative consequences and our country definitly didn’t collapse.
You can honestly say there have been no negative consequences
what they mean is "the movement further away from an all-white ethnostate" because we be chillin in multicultural societies and they hate that
But the attack in Cologne and other German cities on women.
Good video. I'm glad that there are still guys like you on youtube.. guys who actually care about facts and most important are unbiased.
Lauren southern and her kind are cancerous and i'm not saying this as a 'delusional libtard' but as a guy who prefers popperly researched and well-conceived videos when it comes to important topics like this.

You are liberal? *Join the far left, buddy, we've got Syndicalism and cookies*
Have you ever seen Roaming Millennial's "People of color: you are not oppressed." It's just 10 minutes of the most poorly argued and poorly researched regurgitated conservative apologetics I've ever seen. A lot of these people are just so unfamiliar with depth of research on these topics that it is truly embarrassing. The sad thing is they can con other people into believing their bullshit as long as they throw up a cherry picked graph or two.

And I lol'd at the 'Kalergi-plan conductors'.
@AugustusPugin
I wasn't necessarily talking about this video, I meant more his work overall - though I didn't make it clear enough in the comment, admittedly.
I don't really see Three Arrows doing a strawman or 'pretending that the right would have a problem '. As shown in the video, Sargon, Molyneux and Black Pigeon all offered a very simplistic approach to the migration crisis. While the alt-right may or may not have a problem with these facts, the above mentioned youtubers demonstrated a lack of knowledge of these facts.
Could you mark the parts of video where he engages in 'very pedantic hair splitting'?
Game james you've been copy pasting this comment over and over again (I'll be copy pasting this too). Dude, what that women said does not sound like she wants an invasion but is inconsiderate has more of a "oops I dropped a baby so I'll just make new ones" attitude. It isn't an invasion and to frame it as such means you are just a right wing scaremonger.
I enjoyed the video a lot, dont get me wrong. But not seeing this "humor" you talked about
Shawn Wolf it's the whole "they smoke weed and like gays so they are liberal" quote. I mean I don't see humor being the driving point of his videos as three arrows' videos usually have a pretty gloomy mood overall.
Shawn Wolf, well I can't help but laugh when I see Sargon or Lauren Southern genuinely trying to blame it all on Merkel
Love your dedication to facts over rhetoric, and love your dry humour
Can't be. Germans don't have humour.

I tought it was common sense that Germany was not responsible for the "refugee crisis". This is new to me.
Really? Where are you from? Just asking out of interest.
Germany my dude but I don't really follow Sagon and the crowd and you know it is not like Germany called for war in the near east, so it can't be Germanies fault by any stretch of the imagination.
Loii Blank if anything its one of the less responsible countries
(edit: but there were probably german weapons involved so there is that)
Sui Des Kind of. But Germany is the 5th largest weapons exporter. If anything Amerika, Russia, France and ??? Is responsible for the war.
Jake Dean the 'hope' you are talking about can only be erased if germany stopped existing. Do you get that?
As someone who is part of the skeptic community, I really like this channel. It provides much needed criticism.
The main point of the people that you were criticizing is not to ask who is to blame. They are concerned mainly about their feeling that the problems created by the refugees are not being discussed honestly, and that European hate speech laws are preventing an honest discussion. So they can be forgiven for being more flippant about how much Merkel is actually to blame for it. But it is still important - the narrative that blames Merkel is the path that can lead one to adopting conspiracy theories about globalists, Jews etc.
Anyway, I hope we can have a dialogue in the future. Not so much about this question - I am not a European. But there's lots to talk about.
I agree with this also, a great comment. Open discussion and analysis like this is extremely important to tackle these problems and Three Arrows does a great job at it, even if I disagree with parts of his analysis and conclusions.
I would be someone who people would consider to the right, but without proper dialogue it is very easy for someone on either side of the spectrum to slip to an extreme point of view or to let their emotions get ahead of them. I've been seeing TYT, PJW and Stefan Moloneux going down that route for years and it unfortunately leads to a situation where no one wins because everyone is at each other's throats.
The right definitely has a distinct lack of reasonable youtubers. All the guys I hear about are knee deep in conspiracies and wackjob theories about The Jews. I'm pretty far left myself but would like to hear their beliefs explained in a reasonable fashion, and none of the righttube is doing it
You are leaving out crucial points. Merkels government failed miserably at addressing rising migration numbers in previous years. 2015 did not come from nowhere, and no significant steps towards avoiding further migration were taken: refugee camps in the middle east stayed underfunded, border protection remained the problem of Greece and Italy, and her actions were widely perceived - especially among potential migrants - to be an unconditional invitation to Germany. It was not, but the state of complete disarray and pseudo-humanitarian "Willkommenskultur" could not have proven otherwise. How else do you explain migrants throwing away documents, refusing asylum in many European countries and travelling illegally to Germany and Sweden - and being successful! Cases of migrants registering multiple times to defraud the welfare systems or avoid deportation are well documented. It can very well be argued that - while her actions did not cause the crisis - they aided in prolonging it into 2016 and the following years, and that a more stringent stance on border security would have stopped this, especially combined with a campaign to create local camps and relieve the need for further movement.
Nevermind314 Well said.

(A report of 487 cases of welfare fraud commited by refugees in 2016 in lower saxony alone. By the way, the employee who uncovered this was suspended and lost her job for pushing this issue despite what she claims was a direct effort to cover these cases up by her superiour)
This behaviour was rather easy to perform and especially common amongst Sudanese migrants, because the formal registration process was often not properly performed, fingerprints were not taken, likely due to the mere volume of cases. Please keep in mind that those numbers are nowhere near the full scale of the problem.

Thanks I was encouraged to see this. I plan to do a response to all these guys on their "white genocide" in South Africa videos. They've been pushing the idea that whites here are under extreme threat that's motivated by race and ideology.
Ambient Knysna You can only debunk the truth with lies.
Yeah, much like the cities burning and rape gangs of Sweden, they like to push that bit of misinformation about South Africa. Isn't it remarkable how right wingers from the US and Europe know more about what is happening in South Africa and Sweden than you and the Swedish people do?
This was a well-researched, well structured look at the issue. Yet I can't help but mostly be exited by the ending. Really caught me off guard.
It’s so much easier on RUclips to scream and shout and get angry than to actually do research and consider things factually.

True , leftists aren't able to understand why multiculturalism is bad so they scream racist instead.
"People who say they are not on the right but share all opinions with the right but they are ok with gay people and weed, so they are totally liberal" LMAO
there definately are people who have both right and left opinions though, its not all black and white, like i am pro life but i have mostly liberal opinions
you know having lived first in italy, than in the uk and now in germany i have to ask something. what crisis? I thought the term crisis referred to a situation of panic, chaos, dismay. I haven't seen any of those or heard of any of those. The best i've heard are people saying, sure there's a lot of people of the wrong colour here. Is that a crisis?
For racists it is
Nice to see a German opinion on this topic. Well articulated :)
Hi Arrows. I'm really glad i stumbled on your chanel, and i'm greatfull for your work. I will be listening closelly in the near future. I live near Montréal, Québec(Canada) wich is curently ongoing a ''refugee'' ''crisis''' right now. Illegal immigrants from America, fearing deportation under Trump's administration, are fleeing north to cross the Canadian border. That was predictable. The thing is, a large portion of theses ''refugees'' are actually people buying one way plane tikets from there home country ( Most notably Haïti and Niger) to Platthsburg(East America), then they take the taxi right up to the border, where they cross completelly unoposed (They are actualy taken care of by the authorities.)This phenomenon has only been exponantial since the start of the ''crisis'' in 2017. The oppositions party are blaming our beloved Justin Trudeau (Kinda obviously) since he virtue signaled on twiter that Canada was an open country and was accepting everybody, right after the ''Dreamers'' thing with Trump. The opposition is calling these refugees ''Trudeau's guests''. I find there's quite the ressemblance with your Merkel situation... but overseas, I find myself in accord with the opposition. Maybe Trudeau is not entirely to blame, but he absolutely is to blame for this ''crisis''. Largely. He never misses an opportunity to signal our country's vertue when Trump is blamed in a race scandal. His policies and tone attract ''refugees''. And who esle than a country's leader is to blame when there's a crisis ongoning? Its not like it's a natural disaster. Our governement is taking a FAR too weak stance on this ''refugee'' crisis, whisch in turn, attract more and more ''refugees'' who leaves everything behind in hope of Trudeau living up to his words. They call this ''THE CANADIAN DREAM''. If this is alowed to continues the way it is, shit will start to go south ( and i mean far right) pretty damn soon let me tell you. Québec isn't a particularly very rich... nor stable province.
Gaius Brius I'd not heard about this before, it's very interesting. The US until two decades or so ago, and you Canadians until the last few years have been able to avoid much of what we've been unable to in Europe thanks to your geography, the fact that you're far away from the middle east, Africa etc. Cheaper air travel, improved infrastructure, a 'shrinking' world is bringing it to you guys too. There needs to be some proper international system for dealing with these situations involving resettling and the like (I believe there is some kind of system for internationally settling refugees under the UN, but it obviously needs to be extended).
Here in the UK it's been said that we'll begin treating refugee crises, already occurring or likely to, as a significant factor when distributing our foreign aid budget.
Canada is fucked. We've had our semblance of national identity stripped for years and when you pair that with insane immigration rates it means we're being taken over.
I think the most noticable thing, however, will be how this drastic increase in both legal and illegal immigrants drives our already fucked medical system to collapse. Months to see a doctor will turn into years.
What is the impact of missing generations in syria? Can the country change if everyone flees?
Can the country change if everyone dies? Or a whole generation is lost in the camps?
swanpride So internal resistance should be at zero. No man should fight for his home. That just allows authoritarian power to grow.
The Majority is still in Syria, so yes. In history, far worse things have happened and all does countries still managed to recover. WW 1-2, Spanish flew and so on.
Space Reptile When you destroy the infrastructure of an entire nation what's left?? Trump bombing the poor survivors to save them!
Some Guy Since he never gassed anyone in the first place! Not even criminals who cage and use his people as human shields!
good. more people should have a think about this. thank you for your work!
The EU tried to have a fair distribution of refugees but everyone always turns anti-EU when they have to pitch in and not just receive benefits.
I stopped listening to sargon during his second sentence, it was way too close to a whole actual sargon to keep my attention.
It sounds less like Europe is trying to keep these people out and more like they’re doing their best to accommodate them into their society. You know, like anybody with a sense of decency would try to do
Matt Bowen Like anybody being invaded would do.
Sadly i feel the question "Who's at Fault for the Refugee Crisis?" was barely answered.
what about the pull and push factors ~Forcing~ people to move not only from Syria or Afghanistan but also from Algeria, Marocco or sub-saharan countries. What about the trade agreements between the EU or European Countries with African Countries devastating latter's economy while europe is not even dependend on these low profits made by these extra-laws?
subsidized ultra cheap chicken meat or milk and cheap old and used clothes are brought from europe to africa. And spanish fishing boats overfishing african coasts. automatic rifles build in the west make wars in developing countries cheaper and more possible. resource injustice is a huuuge topic. just to name a few problems explicitly. there are myriads more. And the most recent severe is climate change accelerated by nations that now deny their duty to open their borders. And this is only the present. what about the imperialistic and colonialistic past of europe? Its about the whole historical context. And the sheer blindness of development aid ministry to adress these problems is last but not least part of the problem itself.
anyways i like your videos and your style. your focus was actually another than the title suggested but hey, i still could learn something new and thats why im here afterall ;)
my favourite example is kenyan textiles. kenya had a rather well-running textile industry. then the red-cross deceided to dump all the "donated" clothes from europe into kenya, flooding the market with clothes-for-free, so that lots and lots of small and medium companies couldn't compete anymore, businesses closed, people lost their jobs and the gubmint lost taxrevenue, plunging their economy into chaos.
That DISS at the end.
Well done mate, I have been looking for someone like you for a very long time. Already Subbed but just want to say that I am grateful.
You're a much needed voice for the opposition today. Though I may not agree with 100% of everything you say, it's an honest breath of fresh air when hearing something new as opposed to the exhausted, lazy arguments from a lot of people on the right.
Excellent, loved the Latuff cartoon at the end, (especially because I know a place where he personally drew one of his cartoons) and the scene from 1984!
This is a fantastic video, and it's incredibly informative. Thank you Three Arrows for doing all the work that you do here.
Hey, as your friendly neighborhood English-speaking, language-loving nerd, I thought you ought to know that the ‘g’ in ‘legislation’ is a soft ‘g’. Like the ‘g’ at the beginning of ‘Germany’. I’m so happy that you make content in English instead of German because my German is nonexistent. Your English is freaking flawless and you speak it better than half of the native English speakers I know. I just thought you might want to know because you talk about politics so much.
I’m learning Swedish and I get so frustrated when my Swedish friends don’t correct my pronunciation. They say “but it’s so cute when you say words wrong!” I’m just like “girl, no! I need to know when I say things wrong!”
I came in to see a disagreement with my thoughts on the idea that the US and Russia screwing with the Middle East is the problem, but instead was educated on European politics and a reaffirming of my beliefs on the issue.
The US, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Turkey and Russia should be responsible
I really had a one-sided view on some things for quite some time, even if I should know better. Especially, due to the RUclips recommendations that would feed me with a lot of content with a more narrow worldview at some point. It was rather tiring...
I am happy that I came across your channel, which is contributing to a well-balanced and open view on different, sometimes even dividing topics, explained on point and backed up by data.
Thank you
This video is awesome, well researched and just the right amount of spiteful to renew my faith in modern media. I've just got to say: A guy telling us to "check ourselves before we riggity riggity wreck ourselves" in a very audible German accent after explaining the details of modern European politics in a cold and rational manner borders on absurdist comedy. Subscribed!
I know nothing about German politics or anything else about the country and it sounds like a huge stretch to say that Merkel is responsible for the migrant crisis.
You would think that the reason people are migrating away would be the cause of the crisis, not the country taking them in. The logic just sounds backwards to me.
DemonGrenade274 The question is: why did they choose Germany as their destination. Why not France, Spain, the UK, Benelux etc?
They know they can take advantage of free housing and benefits. Most of these migrants aren't even Syrian, and they abandoned all of the most vulnerable of their families, the sick, children, women and the elderly back in the countries they came from. What does that say about them? How much danger could they possibly be in if they left behind every vulnerable member of their families?
Otto Weininger France, Spain, UK are shitholes compared to Germany.
David Gwin Then the situation changes from a migrant crisis to an Illegal migrant crisis
David Gwin so you'd let hundreds of thousands displaced people, a lot of them young and elderly starve or freeze to death when Dublin III specifically necessitates the EU housing them? You are a deranged sociopath at best.
it's good that you make theese videos. i typically lean right in geopolittical happenings; but i find this new viewpoint refreshing, and ultimately, an expanding force in my understanding of the happenings of this mad world.
Context is the biggest enemy of the propagandist

@@wEXTRACTw nope, but using this to imply some kind of a conspiracy to destroy europe is stupid.

Very true. Also Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey
Sargon casually gliding in and dropping a steaming pile of shit in the comments, he's like some sort of pigeon, that speaks, huh.
This is great, I just recently found your channel. Keep up the good work. All the best from Sweden.
This was a brilliant analysis of the crisis. I love how well sourced the video and I am really impressed.
Awesome video. I have to admit that even though i mostly do not agree with nor belive people like black pigeon or molynieux that there was alot of misinformation floating around in my head.
Thank you for clearing some things up.
Deine Videos sind einfach geil! :)
If I could put the biggest blame on one person, it would be Bashaar al-Assad.

@@randomnessrules4971 did kinda sound stupid and clownish of me saying it?
Your videos are excellent. I love how much historical context you consider in your videos. Keep up the great work!
i think I went through like 4 of your videos as I'm working, and whoa! Subscribing at the speed of light once again. Thank you for the content!
Thanks for the video. There is one small piece of information you could have included to make your point: A systematic comparison of the number of refugees per country of origin, ie. by contrasting the number of refugees with the countries' population size. By doing that you quickly see that American war campaigns are the drivers of the crisis. They triggered about 80% of the migration (but it varies quite a bit depending on data source and year). And now, youtubers and the mainstream press from the (Anglo-)countries most responsible for the problem, blame it on Germany while the Germans never agreed to any of those wars...
I agree for the most part. Just let's be fair, the Syrian civil war started due to a drought in the region and civil unrest. That was just bad luck (and climate change)
Concerning the start of the war, I might agree. Wether the severity of the war was influenced by the West, Western allies from the Gulf or other players, however, is another question. The world will know it about 70 years from now, after most classified documents have been released.
This is why i fled Hungary.
Too much of Orbán shenanigens.
Way too obvious trolling.
Telling the truth isn't trolling
You have great comedic delivery. Really happy to see your channel growing so much! Keep at it! Cheers :)
Context? Nuance? Data? Surely no one expects the right to understand the importance of such things? Not when their narrative has been so finely tuned down many millennia to ignore these things.
Okay what the fuck. I am Hungarian and all this time I've been told that Germany wanted the migrants.
No one wants them. I’ve been told the same but now I realize the political situation didn’t give Germany a choice
@@matthewct8167 Germany kind of wants them because of their failling demographics.
thanks for giving the full context of this situation
"I am eager to learn more" Your sarcasm is Wonderful, and it gives me Life. Thank you.
As always, very well researched, serious, interesting but most of all honest and real. Keep it up.
Actually they are leaving German due to thier Family members not being here. So all that whinning for nothing.
Yuwan I would assume for a good chunk of migrants it was temporary relief until the chaos goes down.
It´s mostly because Germany didn´t offered them what they needed the most: Thier family. So they will go to Turkey to meet with thier lost Kin.
Yuwan But also because no one really wants to flee from their home, especially to a country they aren’t used to living in.
True and that´s why Carl Benjamin can´t read, it destroys his dumb Foreigners are evil dogma.
A few hundreds or thousands are doing that. What's your point?
Thank you for this video. It was very informative.
Man I love it when there's a new video of yours in the morning.
It's worth emphasising the part that climate change, and pressure from drought specifically, had in driving the Syrian civil war - something else (perhaps the most important thing) that needs to be resolved through cooperation.
>humanitarian crisis
as a part of a global economic crisis...yes
It’s easy, stop fighting in Syria. Shame on everyone who vilifies migrants with families who just wanted to escape death
Good video, cleared up some misconceptions that I had on the subject. With that said, none of this is a statement about the kind of effects that migration flows will have in the future.
Great job as always! Sehr schön eine Stimme der Vernunft unter all den YT-Demagogen zu hören! :)
I wish america would just do what its supposed to. Let in immigrants. We are the assimilation country, yet we are cutting off our flow of immigrants. Hopefully after corona policy will loosen up.
Refugees in this case are different from immigrants. From a humanitarian perspective we can’t turn refugees away. I do think do United States should’ve excepted more refugees since it’s partially their fault.
The problem being that syrian refugees will not flee to the US ^^
In the XIXth and XXth century, the US were the main destination of migrants, because they came from european countries and had cheap ways to get to the US. Now, it's easier and cheaper to go to Europe ^^
@@matthewct8167 as US citizen we are far more beneficial if we accept immigrants due to our vast last and low population destiny.
We consistently short of labors across the sectors.

"wir schaffen das" will have the same value as "Ich bin ein Berliner" when more enlightened historians look at our era with perfect hindsight
EDIT: in the speech she compares the refugee crisis with the collapse of the DDR, which Germany also dealt with. The DDR had 20 million undereducated, indoctrinated people and a failing economy. Germany handled the integration of East Germany. The refugee crisis is peanuts in comparison. Context matters.
The huge growth of the German economy since 2015 is also partly due to the influx of new workers in a country that had already reached total employment. A lot of refugees are educated and Germany is in sore need of skilled and unskilled labor. It's why I moved to Germany myself and despite my impeccable record, it'll be 2 more years before I can apply for a passport (which I won't)
That I doubt, though. The statement is really very awkward and not only do 55,8% of Germans strongly disagree with it, even almost half of the far left, Merkel also had to relativize it herself later: "I'm not saying 'we'll make it' alone." Further being very vague and unclear, typical for her. Who does what exactly?
It only solidifies the impression of the federal government's ineptitude and lack of a plan/vision. The Germans are also 'merkelmüde' after 13 years of a completely soulless government. Even the two largest parties can barely hold more than 50% of seats.
I myself agree, that we will actually 'make it', hence dealing with the refugee crisis somehow, but I never really ran across anything that would have contested that anyway. Now if you're a doubtful rightwinger and you hear such a statement, you will only feel even more uneasy if not outraged at such a statement.
The rightwing in Germany is currently shifting the debate in their favor asking: "Do we even want to 'make it'? Have the people been asked that?"
All in all, it was a very clumsy, if not outright negligent statement.
>The statement is really very awkward and not only do 55,8% of Germans strongly disagree with it, even almost half of the far left
Of course the far left disagrees with Merkel, she's a right wing politician.
>All in all, it was a very clumsy, if not outright negligent statement.
It was the moral thing to say at the time and that's what makes an otherwise okay politician a great leader. It was neither clumsy nor negligent. It was exactly what the world needed to hear at the time.
And guess what ... we did it. The refugee crisis is mostly under control today. Merkel was correct.
ahouyearno They are actually environmental refugees with no concept of how to live in an industrial society!
Ye, wasnt the east a source of highly educated and extremely cheap labour?
Ai o Caralho Now they just want cheap labor

Hello, greetings from Los Angeles. I love your Chanel, you continue to educate so many people like myself, keep up the good work
Your approach is praiseworthy.
Sargon got ratio'd so hard in the comments lol
The problem wasn't syrians coming to Europe, the problem was making information available that suggested syrians get an easier time being accepted.
This lead to tons of people from countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq or such, to toss their passports and claim to be Syrian. A little bit anecdotally, but I remember arab translators being confused that supposed "syrians" spoke none of the languages in Syria, and instead spoke Pashto or something.
Of course this leads to a problem with only a handful of solutions...what do you do with so many people with no real way to identify them?
A: You let them in regardless, and engage in a potentially years long struggle to figure out who they are.
B: You deny them access, which strands them in whatever country they currently came from.
C: You send them back home to the place they supposedly fled from, which would be an interesting solution as people not from syria would quickly be deterred from claiming to be from syria, if they simply get shipped back there with no passport.
There are a myriad of other possible solutions, all of them equally bad in one aspect or another, and Germany obviously chose A...
I disagree with that decision, but it has been made, and we have to deal with it...the fact that the German government did things horribly wrong in pursuit of dealing with that decision is, however, the root of the problem. Things like paying exorbitant amounts for substandard housing simply because they needed the space to house that many refugees, overtaxing government facilities meant to process them leading to a drop in standards, multiple accounts of fraud, the fact that denied asylum applicants can simply not be deported because the recieving country denies them entrance, etc...
Long story short, there is no simple problem, just bunches of complex problems that a normal human citizen will never bother to study history and it's too complex for them to understand the whole picture. No wonder why we haven't colonies Mars by now.
Stop citing facts to we who have opinions!
This was an excellent video. Keep it up
One of those guys is like "but with freedom of movement you get tourists!"
Is that a bad thing? I thought tourism was a good economical force... Surely I'm wrong.
