If people want to immigrate to a country, there is no reason they should not fully assimilate themselves into and fully embrace that nation and culture. Anything else does nothing more than weaken that society.

I try to learn the basics: yes, no, thank you, please, where's the beer; but I have had Dutch people tell me not to bother.

This sounds reasonable. You should learn the language of the country you want to live in.
Years ago I went to a swearing in ceremony for new US citizens. It was eye opening - how badly people wanted to come to the US and become citizens. Every last one of them spoke better English them myself. |
Way to go!!
If you're not respectful enough to learn the language of the country and the people that is welcoming you, then you do not deserve to stay in that country. |

I think it should be you have to learn the language and history of a country before you invade it.
Would the Americans have invaded Vietnam if they had to learn Vietnamese first? The Brits and Yanks never learn the language of the countries they occupy. Or choose to live in...How many Brits living in Spain have learnt the language and culture? How many schools and courses are there for immigrants to learn English? Free and at a time they can go? |

I do not agree with you. It seems to me that you are confused between invading a country -act of war- and immigrating -looking for a better life- It is not the same at all. As immigrant, the country that receives you has no depts towards you. You have to make the necessary efforts to adapt yourself to the country. Just for the record, I have lived in Denmark, Germany and Spain. I have learned all the languages of those countries without taking any courses. I am an adult and I am responsible for what I am doing. I do not need to be pampered by the governement. |

Sorry but the obvious trend is for European and white countries to destroy their cultures. That is what is "politically correct"". This idea that immigrants should learn the native Language is just racist. The proponents of this idea should be shamed by the media, fired from their jobs, and ostracized for the rest of their lives.
I was shopping at a small grocery store in Netherlands one time and asked for a specific product. The Pakistani employee went off about "this is not the United States we do not have all the same products you have there". He said this in an elevated and mean voice. Turns out they actually had what I was looking for. I wanted to strangle that little fucking mouthy turd for having the nerve to talk shit to me as if I had no business being in that country. |
it's kinda surprising that the dutch did that. i mean they were on the highway to hell because of PC and multiculturalism. the worst example is sweden. they even encourage the least tolerable kind of immigrants to go there

As in all such threads like this, people need to learn the proper definitions of racist and prejudice.
:disgust |
Its terrible these immigrants they should learn from the advanced western citizens....
The British when they ruled India all learned Hindi, Americans in New Mexico, LA and New York are all bilingual speaking beautiful Spanish, The English and Americans are famous for their speaking of foriegn languages and when they live abroad they speak the local langauge and eat the local food. You could never tell a Brit in say Spain. |
