Specifically, The Deleterious Effects of Illegal Immigrants on the US

None of those foods are “white Anglo” in origin.

Meatloaf is about as international as you can get.

Roasted chicken is not native to white anglos either.

The ubiquitous potato is from South America (Andes).

The lowly pea hails from that bastian of white anglos in Northern Africa and Western Asia.

I would too. Unfortunately, the powers that be have determined that White countries are not allowed to exist, and that all White countries must be culturally enriched via mass third-world immigration.

PS: Why is it progressive to think that only foreign people can create foreign food but racist to think that only European people can continue Western civilization?

I don’t know about you, but I like a variety of foods to choose from. Has anyone ever seriously complained about there being too much ethnic food in the American culinary scene? Entire TV networks are dedicated to celebrating the variety of foods available to the average American. Can I safely assume that you don’t consider this to have negatively impacted your eating experience?

Now, for the sake of the OP, please demonstrate in what way your experience and enjoyment of Western Civilization has suffered due to immigration.

As Arcite noted above, “spicy food is good” is probably the least compelling argument possible for flooding White nations with mass immigration. What are you going to tell your grandchildren, that you turned America into the third world so you could have tacos and kebab?

And since you asked for it:
I’m white. And having to live around people who aren’t white (that is, 88% of immigrants) reduces voter registration, infrastructure investment, loan repayment rates, political efficacy, charitability, quantity of friendships, trust, civic health, happiness, and quality of life.
So yeah, having to live around people who aren’t like me has made my life worse, and it’s probably made your life worse too, no matter how much you profess to love people of color. That’s made it harder to acheive things that Western civilization values and increases the chance of all sorts of terrible things that the West wants to avoid, like crime, war, and atomization.

That’s a 10 year old article, based upon a 16 yo poll and the results were fairly ambiguous. And had nothing directly to do with illegal aliens, rather more with ethnic heterogeneity.

And were contradicted in this 2011 study.

So, maybe that was true 16 years ago.

Illegal immigrants are happy to do jobs that Americans are unwilling to do-- like building a fence between the US and Mexico.

And harvesting tomatoes, lettuce and strawberries. So you folks can have them cheap.

The Putnam study was prize-winning and conducted by a top researcher in the field, who was a political liberal no less. Moreover, the conclusion that diversity is harmful has been supported by multiple other studies. A random study conducted in a field where >90% of scholars are liberals doesn’t contradict the clear scientific consensus that diversity reduces social trust and other measures of well-being.

Also, your claim that Putnam’s study was “fairly ambiguous” is absurd. He clearly shows that diversity reduces a number of measures of well-being.

So you have manned up and owned up to that it’s NOT about “illegals”, that it’s simply about “people who aren’t like you”. Congratulations, we appreciate that honesty. Would that everyone gave it to us that straight.
(however, yes, appreciation of spicy food is a really lame example of the benefits of the melting pot; stop that, everyone)
Of course, history is so full of examples that if left to their own, European Caucasians would live in a utopian paradise free from crime, war and atomization :rolleyes:

Here’s a block quote from the Putnam study for the doubters:

That’s 33 sources, in addition of course to his own research.
And here’s the list of ways that diversity reduces things that we value:

Have you considered emigration?

But where to? Alas, there are no more pure White places to emigrate to any more! All the liberals have let the terrible brown people move into everywhere!
.

Three things that define a country.

You failed at sarcasm because your statement (apart from the “terrible” part) is objectively true. There aren’t any countries that don’t have vibrancy inflicted upon them from within or from outside. The most White areas now are inhospitable northern regions too cold for urban youth to inhabit.

Are you talking about Vermont? (95.3% white + 1.3% Asian, aka honorary white people)

As well as other places like Russia, Maine, Alaska (excluding Native Alaskans), and Alberta.

I’m still laughing at the idea of America as a “white nation”. If that was the goal, maybe someone should have thought that through before settling on Native American land, bringing over thousands of Africans and then buying a chunk of Mexico.

No, the Poll results upon which he based his paper were “fairly ambiguous” . In any case, his article is based upon **16 year old data. ** More recent poll results have shown public opinion has changed.

Wait, wait, now again you moved from the broad “people who are not like you” to a specific subdemographic of “urban youth”, a majority of whose families have had ancestors in the country for centuries. So now it’s not even outsiders!

Make up your mind who’s the threat so we know which one of us you need to thank for relieving you of the White Man’s Burden.

The horse isn’t the state-of-the-art in transportation any more. People are only going to move around more in the future. Ethnic homogeneity is an accident of pre-modern technology, and nothing more.

You may as well wax nostalgic about deaths from cholera.
