Migration Crisis Is Overpowering This Tiny French Island (HBO)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2018
- As France just toughened up its asylum policy, mass arrivals of undocumented migrants are not only overpowering European shores, but a tiny French island off East Africa.
Since it voted to become part of France in 2009, Mayotte has been flooded with people from neighboring islands; now, more than half of its residents were born somewhere else, mostly in the nearby Comoros, whose government claims Mayotte is theirs.
But Mahorais disagree; they blame migrants for leeching off social services and crowding the only hospital on the island, while Mayotte already struggles to operate on par with other French regions.
Earlier this year, locals' frustration boiled over, sparking a two-month labor strike to demand more immigration enforcement from the mainland.
“We’re afraid of illegal immigrants,” strike organizer Maila Mouhadji told VICE News. “We’re afraid of the kids who have nothing to do and can’t work because they’ve come to Mayotte illegally … They will steal your handbags just to be able to survive.”
France sent more police and promised to invest 1.5 billion dollars into the island. But people like Maila say the response is inadequate, and if anything, conditions in Mayotte have deteriorated since the strike ended in April. The reaction has left locals feeling like second-class citizens on their own land.
“We can’t house the whole world in Mayotte,” Mouhadji said. “Yes, we're French, but how French are we?"

VICE News I guess we don’t here about this on lame stream media because there is no way to twist it to fit their narrative
Vice is the most vile post-modern commprop disseminater on RUclips.
Kris Kaiser not sure it's the worst... really really REALLY bad, but I'm not sure it's the worst.
Teach them, how to survive, how to work. Their strenght murh more that you have( frecnh)...white people....give them right educ...dont let them behind...like the U.SA .did in alies the Philippine
There can be no useful discussion of race without mentioning differences in average IQ.
3:30 "We are not xenophobic. We are claiming the right to what is ours. We can't house all the world's poor here."
If white Europeans say exactly these words about their own countries, VICE will vilify them and call them racist. They even started this video with the very first sentence stating that migrant crises around the world are about people rejecting those with "darker skin", and then go on to give a sympathetic report on the black native population of this island being negatively affected by migration.
100%
Difference is that the people of this island didn’t jump on boats and colonize about half the world. I’m not a believer in open Borders but countries like the United States, France and England can not complain about immigrants they created pursuing their imperialistic goals. Its about the legal principle of compensation, either pay back for the damage you did or make legal migration a more accessible option for the people you fucked over.
When you know the real situation of Mayotte you'll indeed know they're struggling already so I understand.
I don't think Vice says as much, I think people just get defensive.
@@CM-hk1hv People don't migrate to seek vengeance for their ancestors.
Vice should realize this has nothing with skin colour, any nation has the right to control who can and cannot enter their borders. If the people want in Mayotte want Paris to enforce their laws, they have every right to do so.
TheLouisXXI while yes immigration crisis has nothing to do with “skin colour” the thing is that skin colour like other things such a religion or even hijab have become markers for “the other”, so when they mention skin colour and religion here it’s just to point out that there aren’t really any evident markers for the unwanted in this society. to France they are all basically unwanted but amongst themselves there are differences, hence the lady’s last statement “how French are we?” It is true that for the most part the left only pays attention to identity in this immigration issue but ignoring identity would be a woeful mistake.
TheLouisXXI it's all about resources and survival for both sides of the migration debate. It's just that race illustrates the narrative better for both sides of the migration debate
TheLouisXXI Vice is a neutral party reporting with as many sources as they can for the full segment, they don't pick sides
Tux you use that word a lot but what does it mean
When they used skin colour as a reason they are not. The issue has nothing with that and they did pick sides here.
So if it's about race then why are fellow Africans not wanting to deal with mass migration? Don't you see the contradictory evidence that cancels out your claim?
Africans aren't a race lol
A race is a grouping of humans based on shared physical or social qualities into categories generally viewed as distinct by society
They are dealing with it. www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/01/29/where-displaced-syrians-have-resettled/
Most people are unaware of the fact that African countries have been accepting, housing, and feeding more refugees than all of the European countries combined. One of the largest contributors is Kenya, in fact. What makes the African host countries unique is that they are taking care of hundreds of thousands of refugees with very little financial support. The reality is that only 1.5 percent of refugees from Africa and the middle east actually relocate to the west.
@SirVixIsVexed How is that a good thing? Jesus Christ.
Anti-Immigrant Africans Lmao the sweet sweet irony.
I say the same about Europeans. The IRONY of a European telling someone to leave "their" country would be maddening, if I didn't already understand self-interest.
@Doven Ro Galus your recollection may mislead you. Europe was not built by Europeans, it wasn't even known as Europe in it's development from the earliest days.
@Doven Ro Galus context is important. So answer me who were the Alemanni? I can give you a hint, they lived on the land that is now occupied by white europeans. Were they white Europeans, and did you even know that they existed? Who were the first inhabitants of the Island that you might refer to as Great Britain? (Another hint, they were dark skinned) and nativity to a land is relative to timescales. You admitted this when you used the word context. Also when you said the group of people who ARE known as Germans, that was important too since they weren't referred to as Germans before. How long before?
I don't know, that depends on context. When did the country of Germany become a country? When it's borders were set, or when it was named Germany? Or was it when the borders were re-set... Or maybe it was when they were re-set for the third time?
TL:DR? Your argument is that they are referred to as Europeans presently, so they must have always been. I say that's incorrect.
@Precious Erving I don't speak neo-Arabic speak English.
Doven Ro Galus you've taken what I've said (and made a point I actually made myself😕) changed some words to fit your narrative (which made it false) and then tried overwhelming me with the rest of the words. But I read what you said. A lot of it didn't make sense, for example you disregarding facts about dark skinned inhabitants. Your claim of natural lighting doesn't hold weight, several scientists and researchers working on those projects were not only white themselves but accounted for that and other factors laymen are incapable of considering. Skin color is based on genetics, geography to a degree, at best. Their DNA was also analyzed and that doesn't change as easily. Your "beliefs" do not stand on equal footing and the burden of proof would also be on you since Great Britain, Europe, nor any other place in the world can prove that they are and always have been genetically homogenous. Even right now you are attempting to give an identity to people who've already had one. If you were able to go to an Alemanni and ask him to speak German to you, or even to speak to him of Germany, he'd look at you crazy. People living on land have moved around since before history, predating even naming conventions altogether. Also Europeans are Europeans presently, they are not retroactively European just like Texas cannot retroactively become Mexico, the land was not known as Europe and the inhabitants there now were not the same as the ones before. There's even evidence of it now, with all of the Iraqi, Syrian, Moroccan, Eritrean, and Turkish Europeans who are presently on the continent. Thru marriage or citizen service, asylum or *gasp* birthright, they are European. But I bet you'd try to argue that these Europeans dont mean "those" Europeans, right?
To help you out, the universal sign of intelligence is being able to explain difficult topics succinctly (easily) and you using that many words to in effect say "nu-uh" to me does NOT read like an easy explanation to complex topics.
It's true my parent are coming from Mayotte. And the situation of the illegal immigration is Real. It's clear that this tiny Island lost in the Indian Ocean can't help everybody. This why 48% of people over there vote for the right. Comorian were oppressive with us. All the power (education syteme, hospital etc...) was concentred in their Island. They took our dignity, and WE said that WE can't stand it anymore. WE choose France because WE wanted to improve our situation. And the comorian Island said no because they are too proud of themselves. Now they regret it and us to come back.
Funny that no one is commenting on this perspective from an actual person from Mayotte
This is not about race or color, it's about sovereignty. I wouldn't want my neighbor's kids helping themselves to my backyard.
and only to then run off to france once their visa lands up, leeching on mayotte's resources meanwhile with little to no contribution back to the society
if you don’t know the full situation, mind ya own. this isn’t a racial issue, black people who are legal french citizens don’t want mass immigration like this either.
I’ve never heard of this island before and you learn something new everyday
Haha france have dozens of territory all around the world end this is one of then
Its the poorest one because its in the south of Africa end have a problem whit illegal migrant while othere territory are in other part of the world
If I am squatting on someone's mansion. I am an "undocumented resident"
These are proud French Citizens! God bless you all! 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷
Not really
God isn't on your side
.
VICE says migrant crisis is about race. Then goes and shows a bunch of legal Black French people saying they don't want illegal migrants. It's not race it's logic.
What was your narative again VICE?
Look at a map of Mayotte. It is no where near France.
@@MrAmhara so what's wrong? french guyana isn't near france too
@@MrAmhara but if a French region
@@MrAmhara French Polynesia: So I was just you know, taking my space
That moment when Vice realizes their entire leftest agenda is flawed...
The people who live there don't want a bunch of people with basically nothing to offer. Most of them are poor so there will be more crime..duh. Who doesn't know that?
exactly. these comoros people don't sound like people who are going to offer much back to mayotte and not even close to the long haul, they sound like they'll run off the first chance they get when a visa lands
CAN'T TAKE CARE OF THE WHOLE DAMN WORLD WE JUST CAN'T !!! I'M FROM AMERICA . THIS IS ALL OVER THE WORLD !!!
How about America stops bombing other countries into oblivion then? The European refugee crisis was caused to a large part by American foreign policy, but nobody is willing to blame the true criminals here...
If you wanted to do good, you would try to educate them that migration is not the solution to their problems. Teach them to stay and fix their countries!
mikajlod25 The truth is most of them probably would've starved and died in their country. Risking death, imprisonment, and discrimination by illegally migrating elsewhere isn't so bad when you're faced with certain death.
@@JackyPizza123 sorry, but they don't look very starved to me, and you can't make a crossing like that on an empty stomach, that's just more lies you've been told, open your damn eyes
The road to hell is paved with good intentions
Almost as if it’s human nature to protect your home
You know what's funny? Those Africans waving the French Flag patriotically. The Irony.
their gpd per capita is 12 times higher than their closest african neighboor, thanks to french money
@@Tonyx.yt. and France got rich of these people through colonisation long time ago
@@sbasi2739 not much resources from those little islands, they get much more wealth from economical help and tourism because instead of beign a poor indipendent country they decided otherwise.
@@sbasi2739 France didn't get rich because of Mayotte, let's be clear about that.
This is a prime example of how important colonization was . The three islands who got their "independence" are in absolute chaos and their people are dying to get into the fourth island who is still "colonized"
Comoros is not a true country
So suddenly Vice realizes Illegal Immigration is NOT about race.
That is HELL for the locals.
the end of colonialism was a nice deal for those who chose to become part of metropolitan france (mayotte and reunion), comoros chose indipendence.
yeah, gpd per capita 12 times higher than comore.
Comory island decided to leave France in 1975 and not mayotte. Mayotte is a French department and they are developing this place!
That's why they are immigrating to get a better life
Borders, borders, borders!!!! Enforce them or your country will SUFFER!!!!
race or skin color does not matter, its the haves vs. the have-nots.
the locals say they are French but they don't want to adopt Frances/EU immigration/refugee policies that allow these undocumented migrants reside in a French territory.
you can't pick and chose what a country wants to do. if France wants to give residency to undocumented migrants, then its Frances prerogative.
Liuetnant remy looks like a movie charecter
He looks like Matt Damon with a prosthetic nose
@@charleskuhn382 true but remy looks like a stereotypical french person
So the moral of the story is that African countries are better off if they stayed European colonies
Better off for whom? The whites had good living standards, but the cost is pretty obvious
Accelerationist the nazis would not do that, the nazis did not give a shit about black people
Accelerationist Well, they lost, they never had a chance of winning, and even if they had won, their society would collapse because their ideology is flawed and bunk
The whole continent of afirca was destabilized and pillaged by European colonies, the issues the face today were only enlarged by a century of there resources being extracted and there people being oppressed.
@Francesco B.
Yeah nice win win situation.
I thought EU colonialism was bad?
......so why are they all trying to be apart of EU countries?
Exactly!!!
The good ones pay for the bad ones . Always
French territory in Africa but there is no African territory in europe
They had Spain, but the Spanish kicked them out.
So what?
I see its NOT ONLY the US that is tired of Illegal immigration...
0:34 tf this Lieutenant looks like the guy In Pink Panther
3:40 "We can't house all the world's poor in Mayotte". -- The same goes for the United States, Canada, and the few European countries (France, Sweden, Italy, Germany, U.K.) where all the world's poor are currently migrating to.
Parasites everywhere...
VICE needs to do a piece on economic hitmen
To the French, don't let a foreign culture dominate your secular culture. Didn't the religious wars teach you anything ????
You know it's bad when Vice finally talks about it...
How many times does VICE news put Crisis in their video titles a year?
"Gently, gently" the cameras are watching!
They just need to be sent on a boat home - simple...
Awkward how minorities can be for anti immigration ...
They're not minorities in this case
@@longclaw22-72 In France? They are, and I swear vice called both the migrants and the residents minorities, and if they did, take it up to vice. If not, well then my bad, though the point of the comment (which I'll admit is hard to grasp), is that anti immigration is not a race issue, though much of my Hispanic family disagrees
Migrants are often the harshest critics of illegal immigrants, they, like the Working Class, suffer the most from it.
Middle Class activists talking about solidarity benefit from it though.
Amazing how mass immigration effects so many.
the thing with most of vice their reporting is that as soon as you can say "ahhh poor thing" to the subject they will report it as a crime. those people are in that situation because of their parrents and continued disaction, and the first thing you see is that they shedd the responcibility
It’s too many people. That’s it. They did a mass migration and it was absolutely too many people who are showing up then I would imagine it being frustrating when most of the people migrating are healthy young men. I would imagine it also being frustrating when crime increases due to desperation. I don’t blame the migrants for showing up. I blame the system for allowing so many to show up.
Nope migrants need to take the wrap too.
french are one of the most wiling countreys to accept refuges so DONT mix rascism and religionphobia with anything else. Vice doesnt understand that those refuges are not angels them selfs and have done many bad things for france and its people
The Neoliberal approach would be to do a Merkel and let them all in, even give out about borders.
Those of us who believe the State has a responsibility to help its people and they it and themselves must stand resolutely against letting these people in.
Merkel did it because Germany really needed to have a better fertility rate.
Yes, the German, Irish, and Italian immigrants faced similar problems when migrating to the United States.
The difference is that Germans, Irish, and Italians were able to be eventually assimilated.
Black people have never been allowed to be assimilated despite the fact that they were 1) forced to come, 2) the nation was built on them, 3) they gave America many of its cultural markers.
Racism in countries like the one in the video are about being overwhelmed with people who are in transition.
Racism in a country that believes in the biological differences of races is about fear of being out bred. The US has a lower percentage of the population that is new immigrant than most other countries today. This means that most of the US only sees a couple of immigrants in their town if at all. And I’ve seen it. People fretting over hearing about immigrants somewhere over there.
In the case of the people in the video, the people share the same culture and history. It’s the problems of dealing with a high percentage of sudden new people that’s the problem.
No doubt the Italian mafia was integrated into society quite well.

Social Darwinism changed how we view race. No longer do we instinctively know that we all descended from the same seed. In the countries in which social Darwinism was propagated, now we are biologically incompatible with each other as if separate species, or so we think.
The scientific racism it produced has created permanent barriers, rather than temporary ones that can be traversed given time and effort from both sides.

But are you French if France is ruled by the EU, and the EU wants to erase you borders?

Wow, talking about an issue most people have never heard of in order to educate. Real journalism.
What a mess!

So to all the people against African immigration to France because it is "white genocide" or is "destroying European culture" I have a simple question. And no it isn't "what about colonialism?" or "didn't colonialism do the exact same?". My question is why is France still full owner of more than 50% of the colonial reserves in 14 African countries (and there are many more they are in control partial or full of also) that net them billions of Euros every single year? And then they say that they don't want poor Africans to migrate to France which has more economic opportunity and that these people should stay in their countries and fix them all while the money that belongs to their countries gets funneled out to France every year.
Jivan Grewal well cuz the people want that, you know the island voted to stay with France
@@mikeoxsmal8022 what are you talking about? That doesn't make any sense? What island? Are you talking about the continent and all those various countries? Because last I checked all those states are sovereign and most if not all have no affiliation with France such as ex British commonwealth nations. GTFOH with that BS.
Jivan Grewal yes it does, in 1976, the Comoro islands had a referendum, Mayotte which is the island in the video voted to stay with France, the rest voted for independence and formed the union of the Comoros
@@mikeoxsmal8022 what does that have to do with my comment bruv? It has nothing to do with my comment or the topic of African migration. I didn't specify the island I was talking a totally different topic. And how would migration from this Island be a problem anyways for the French? I don't see how you related to my comment or to the issue of migration. SMH.
Jivan Grewal I never said that
I looked up this country because I play worldle every day, and today was one of the few days I didn't know the country. This is sad.
It's almost like opposing illegal immigration has nothing to do with race?!
“I’m sure they would leave”
Yeah sure and overwhelm another place
They won’t leave cos in Grand Comores we have the same problem with the population of Anjouan they don’t like staying in their Island I m sure maybe historically Population of Anjouan quite feel entitled I remembered young me in Grand Comores some people from Anjouan just build a small house near our house with no construction permit it was our land but we ended up letting them stay and they will have children after children how to look after them it’s not of their business it was quite chaotic to be around them now I m not saying all people from Anjouan are like that but it will be great that leaders in Anjouan starts to raise awareness and do more in their islands cos it’s quite humiliating the entire nation of Comoros who many are proud to be Comorian and doing a lot for their countries . Anjouan have history of abusing the system and high birth . It’s really sad 😢
I'm white. Can i immigrate to France and get public assistance?
yes
no, libtards want only dark people or muslim
Lieutenant Remy is sooooo fucking french, omg.
For the last 100 years or so France has Owned/governed ...this island....gotta love the info structure they have given their people and jobs?
Very interesting report
Finally an accurate title.
Undocumented?? It doesn't seem to be the correct word. Illegal maybe!!
i prefer the word clandestine
VICE, UP YOURS! YOU KNOW BLOODY WHY!!!!!
wow..mayotte doing what the usa is failing to do..its not about race...its about your identity. Respect to these people
Lmao, this is fucking hilarious.
There are a few issues at play here , much more than can really be discussed in a posting but as the island is on the opposite side of the globe this is the best venu perhaps.
1. Helping the surrounding islands help themselves will be preventative maintenance. Suggestions to include giving them the tools they need such as education, farming knowledge, or even co-opratives in the area of fishing , sea farming such as for pearls or something that can be sustainably grown on all the islands could be looked into. As far as education goes with the Internet attending university online for the first few years could be done with universities in Africa. It will take government coordination among all the islands to have truly peaceful borders. Hopefully the right person will read this and facilitate appropriate action.
2. In regards to colonialism, racism, and insinuations of lower IQ. In the context on this particular island most of the inhabitants appear to be African with France claiming it as a colony. The island inhabitants are probably genetically identical to the people on the other islands, in that aspect the radicals can get off their high horse.
In regards to colonialism and associated racism read “the color of the law by Richard Rothstein”, that is racism. The local vigilante headed by the lady in the video is doing the most drastic and draconian acts with her basis that she does not want to live among poor people. I am sure France spends much more money on keeping the islands as a territory than it takes in from the local economy in the form of taxes, export of goods or tourism. From a financial perspective rescinding the colony status may actually save France money in the short and long term. Furthermore there does not appear to be white colonial racism or impression of white superiority based on the video, the cops appear to be doing their job.
In regards to IQ and various races: people under that impression should read seer by angela thompson smith and visit www.earthfiles.com and watch all the youtube vid on Linda Moulton How's earthfiles RUclips Channel chronologically; we are all somebody’s experiment. And actually Africans have a higher intellectual capacity and mental abilities, this is known in America esp when given the chance at normal lives minus economic uncertainty, racism, systematically jailed, or being exploited. Mind you the scientists who insisted that Africans are inferior were white male scientists with incentive to keep the social status quo during their point in history, so in essence the talk about IQ is hogwash albeit there is natural genetic variance in any population including Europeans.
This is my opinion on the posted vid of the overall situation on the island and my view as a person of color with university education in minority studies. For things to improve and to stop the flow of migrants thier incentive to migrate should be reduced. Actions to include giving the neighboring islands the tools to better themselves and the reigon can be done, tourism and investment on the islands can be looked into, farming on land and by sea could be looked into with regional co-ops done for the crops etc.
And lastly border enforcement isn’t meant to be a walk in the park or easy at times but it should be done in a responsible and ethical way, destroying peoples homes, possessions and livelihoods is poor practice and policy regardless of who you are. And to the lady who is spearheading it I see you as a hypocrite as there are better short term and long term solutions. She should also keep in mind that her generics are the same as the surrounding islands and just because her passport is a different color doesn’t make her or the island inhabitants better then anyone else. If she really wants to help she and her fellow islander should get university education and grow the economy, there is no doubt the gained knowledge can also be shared and help the island and region in general.
9-14-2020 Update: In regards to things that can help the economy of all of the islands listed in the video please see below. Instead of France giving the islands a handout why not invest and train them in the below industries? there is no doubt if successful the model can be replicated to the surrounding islands.
www.greenwave.org/
This site goes over how to ocean farm
ruclips.net/video/rzodor-1XBo/видео.html
This video goes over the benefits of new protein sources that do not require much land, a lab could be built on the French territory so people can increase protein intake minus all the land needed for cattle ( more land for tourism)
verticalharvestfarms.com/about-us/
This is a site that goes over how to raise crops year round regardless of climate in a fraction of the space compared to traditional farming.
France: If you really want to help how about you look into implementation, procurement, and training of the islands residents in the above emerging technologies. Benefits include sustainable increased food production with models that can be shared cooperatively amongst the islands, I could look into private funding but message me and let me know. Benefits also include increased exports from the islands and farming technologies that can be replicated along the west coast of Africa. The small island is a perfect test bed to export the above sustainable technologies before testing them on a larger scale in the surrounding islands or West Coast of Africa. Now the inhabitants no longer have to worry about being a burden to the French in regards to taking more than they receive for the French economy, they can train themselves, work on in the above technologies and put in more to the French economy than they take out all while improving the lives of all the islands by strategically teaching them ( Other islands) how to farm and grow themselves via the above technologies after they learn them.I am don't know if my rant will make a difference but these are my thoughts on the video and proposed solutions for all parties involved. Thank you for taking a moment to review my comments.
People chose to be ignorant...thanks for your piece beautifully put
France needs a wall.
Discrimination? How convenient is it? They argue that all that goes against them is discrimination against them.

It’s about culture.
They just Wants money..!!
Our world is burning and I am sad.
This is nothing new history has proven that.
They were all once French and the Comoros all except Mayotte voted for independence what makes them want France now
Every migration crisis has the same remedy, it’s not mass deportation, that’s a short term bandaid. If we don’t share our wealth with poor countries, if we abandon the goal of global prosperity then this will continue, we westerners must give those people a reason to stay home if we don’t want them in ours.
Agreed, but I think it's easier to find a way to help these people than to reject and deport them in the future. It's not about race or religion, it's about cost. Building a wall that doesn't stop most of them is expensive, paying agencies to find them and deport them is expensive, all this non-sense is not only expensive, it's ineffective. Western leaders, the UN, the EU, all of the western world, must find a way to make sure the population from those countries (mainly Africa and South America) can succeed and prosper where they live.
The end game is also a lot better for us, helping those countries develop means one day they could become trade partners, with our current policies we are creating generations upon generations that resent us deeply, how is that productive?
Don't believe me? Check Brazil or South Africa, I'm not sure we are flooded with people from there.
I agree but billions have been poured into Africa & the political powers have failed to invest any of the foreign-Aid budget in their people they've stolen it & squandered it on private jets building mansions & shopping trips to Europe & here in the UK we can't even fund social-care for the elderly & children with special needs.
I know, it's the same pretty much everywhere in Europe and the US, we can barely afford our own social policies. But the sort of policy I'm hoping to see one day is not just an adjustment in our respective budgets, it's a bit more radical, the kind of policy I'm talking about would eliminate the cause of most wars almost immediately. I'm not some crazy communist or alt whatever, I just realise we spend billions fighting poor people that get brainwashed by fanatics who wouldn't stand a chance if those countries had the rule of law and decent leaders, maybe we could use those billions another way...
They should have two places in Africa to choose from and then send them there with a warning Sto never invade other peoples countries ever ever again. It’s the little kids who are heartbreakingly innocent. But had the misfortune to be born to these parents who refused to use any IQ and use birth control
Bu- bu- bu- but diversity is our strength... right guys?
Ha ha haaa yeap our sssss.......
Where is the diversity? Except for the issue of French citizenship, they're literally the same people. Same ethnicity, language and religion.
The irony of this is all is that if France left Mayotte without economic aid and resources they would be as poor as Comoros
So are they in a island or Paris?
do ya'll get it now?
the worst part about the immigration issue is that it will never end. immigration will always happen, sometimes on a mass scale. maybe someday we will all see each other as human beings instead of national citizens but until then, nothing will change and the violence and debate will continue.
Let's be honest... Immigration of poor uneducated and trouble makers is what really annoys people... But immigration of talented, educated, useful worforce is welcome. RIGHT?
No it's called the brain drain. How are they able to develope their country if the talented one keep getting poached.
HAVE OPEN SEASON ON THEM, ARM UP
NO. You must leave.
I hate that Euro flag.
Why does France still own them islands? If they ain't gonna help then give them Independence
Stupid guy, this Island IS France and people of this island ARE French. They have French passports, French nationality and ALL the rights that a French citizen has. And guess what? They CHOSE to be a part of France in a referendum by over 95%.
I cant even finish this video because i cant trust Vice...
The irony here is that she and the other islanders are essentially the same people. The only difference being she was born in a French territory. Had she been born elsewhere she wouldn't be so hateful.
We re not the same people Anjouan are literally taking the mick right now people from Grand Comores and Moheli are peace makers they need to stop saying Comoros
They should allow them to come work at least. Then to pay for visas
The first sentence of this video severely conflicts with the rest. What the people of Mayotte are saying here is exactly the same as what the French are saying in France, but the French are considered racist. I wonder what SJWs and others would say about the people of Mayoette, as they can't call them intolerant or racist.
Because people don't want any more migrants please stop calling him racist
The leftist ideas are good for poor countries, not vice versa. It is the poor countries who need socialist programs and ideologies not the rich ones. Those poor countries need welfare programs to modernize their society. Yet we have a rich country of France who's trying to be left, which works insufficiently. Let's remember that it was with France's support a successful leftist regime in Burkina Faso was forcefully removed in 1987. After the coup Burkina Faso went back to feudalism.
In Burkina Faso's case the leftist regime was working and it showed a good example to the rest of Africa. It really helped the people. However, the former colonial power and the neighboring dictators were scared of the Revolution spreading. In my opinion France needs to install friendly leftist governments with self sufficiency in its former colonies and economic growth. By doing so France won't have a problem with migrants. All I'm saying that every African country needs to have its own Thomas Sankara. The world would be a better place.
