Temat: Is miscegenation (racial mixing) something positive?

I'm into controversial topics at the moment:

10% of U.K. children born into a mixed race family.

I think miscegenation is neither good nor bad. The fact that "some ethnic minorities may disappear" is nothing new. It`s called "evolution".

I have nothing against the idea of people 'mixing' with each other. However, in certain parts of the world, some children born from such relationships end up being rejected by both parents' relatives / cultures (as they don't belong to any of them). I am not sure what I would do if I were in such situation (as the parent and as the child).

Why so?

Was there a negative tone to the article?

The image they used was hardly hateful.warren whitmore edytował(a) ten post dnia 16.08.09 o godzinie 23:30

How then is the article 'typical'?

If you regard the Mail as a 'hate' paper, then the article, and particularly the image, was 'untypical'.

Presuming, of course, that you bothered to read it.

ok, you are right. I am biased about DM... Most of immigrants are, I'm afraid. You see this as a normal, informative article. I can see that as another scaremongering about white, middle and working class Britain loosing it's identity.
Call it whatever you want, and I know it's not rational. But a lot of people feel this way.

It's neither good nor bad, it's simply a normal thing.

I do agree with Rafal. By asking if it is positive one opens a possibility to say it is not... And as Rafal says, it is just normal.

Perhaps you should base your views on what they actually write, rather than what you imagine.

Do you imagine the average Daily Mail reader to have a more distorted view of the world than the average Pole in London?

You see, we grown up in a country where one was said, something else meant and something different made... I told you it is not rational. Do not try to rationalize someones feelings Warren ;)

No, they are probably equally distorted.

And in fact I do Mondays ;)

I'd imagine if the Daily Mail were to bring out a Polish edition, Sylwia could be editor.

We could read enlightened headlines, such as:

NATIVE BRITS ARE STUPID

THE NHS IS USELESS

THE ENGLISH ARE LAZY

BRITISH FOOD IS UNHEALTHY AND WILL KILL YOU

OTHER IMMIGRANT GROUPS TO THE U.K. STINK

And what was your point Warren? ;) Headline you propose are equally true to

Polish migrant killed a prostitute
Poles eat swans
Poles are benefit cheats
Drink driving increase caused by Poles

The difference between our headline is that yours are stupid opinions posted by few people with "issues" on a meaningless website and mine are printed in UK's daily newspapers ;)
There are stupid people on both side unfortunately. Stuff I find on Wyborcza regarding Poles in the UK scares me much more then DM ;)

And going back to our topic, I think there are communities less acceptable to mixed marriages. I've heard few things about Sikhs for example.

And NHS is quite fine in my opinion ;) but there is still a room for improvement ;)

Poles eat swans - this is a joke article which no-one seriously believes.

Polish migrant killed a prostitute - this will be reported if it happens. It will also be reported if any other nationality, or a British person, kills a prostitute. If it is true, shouldn't it be reported?

Poles are benefit cheats - I doubt whether a headline actually stated this. But I would also refer again to an article in a Polish magazine on how to cheat the benefit system in the U.K.

Drink driving increase caused by Poles - and again, if this happens to be true, why shouldn't it be reported?

It certainly is not a widespread belief by British people that Poles either eat swans or kill prostitutes.

The attitudes which I caricatured in my headlines do, however, appear to be fairly common among your acquaintances.warren whitmore edytował(a) ten post dnia 19.08.09 o godzinie 00:55
