Man I don't know what to think of that original post. Either you are a fascist pretending to be a social democrat or you've successfully taken the logic of Social-Democracy to its natural conclusion: side with the nation and the reforms of that nation over class struggle and liberation from ruling classes.

As you know, my country and the whole EU is being threatened by immigration.
I don't know that at all and don't think this is the case. In fact there has been a return to emigration out of some European countries from what I understand. I think Ireland's population is shrinking again for example.
I don't see how people moving around threatens anything - it's a basic fact of human society, people move around. The problem is when political borders are run in the interests of the ruling class. They're fine with capital crossing borders, their fine with their militaries crossing borders when it suits them, their fine with dictating the economy of Greece from Berlin.
In fact in the US they are fine with labor crossing borders too - they just want to be able to create a second class of worker who can not organize, can't make a fuss about exploitation or police harassment.
Borders and nationalist xenophobia help strengthen the current order of society and prevent workers from organizing effectively and so they are ultimately counter to the interests of regular people. I may be forced on the labor market to compete with immigrants, but really we just want the same thing and too the people in charge of the system, they want the same things of us: to sit down and take what they give us and force us to each fight over crumbs.
Increasing restrictions on immigrants and lessening their ability to have rights only helps the ruling class to force down wages: it's divide and rule. The solution is for workers to fight not on a national basis, but on a class basis along their common interests of not being exploited or pushed around by authorities.

Why is the Left so pro-immigration?
Why are you so against immigration?

My parents told me that 30 years ago there was almost no crime, now there are immigrant gangs beating people up, shitting everywhere and throwing thrash, and not behaving properly.
Yup, sounds like college students alright. Rioting after sporting games, date-raping and even gang-raping people, gangs of Fraternity-affiliated people torturing their new recruits causing alcohol poisoning and the occasional death, getting into drunken brawls, shitting and pissing in public, rampant drug selling and use.
This is why me and my buddies have formed an organization. We like to pull up lawn chairs and hold loaded rifles on the sidewalk when students have Keg-parties. We just want to remind them of their place.
Obviously I'm joking, but I think it demonstrates that you can prove a group of people are bad if you profile almost any group.
In the US in the mid-1800s did you know that Germans were banned from buying and consuming alcohol? We all know that Germans are drunk and lazy in their jobs at the mill unless disciplined with proper Anglo-American virtues.:rolleyes:
It's the oldest trick in the capitalist book - get one part of the population to turn on others as the source of problems caused by capitalism in the first place. In the US it was the French and their radical Jacobeanism, then the Irish for the inability to assimilate and their "foreign and evil popeish religion", then the "dutch" German immigrants and their lazy drunkenness, then the Jews for their inability to assimilate and the "foreign religion", then the Chineese for also not assimilating (of course this had nothing to do with forced segregation into "Chinatowns"), then Italians for their radical syndicalism and popeish yada yada, the the pols, then the Black migrants and Okiees who were FROM THE US EVEN, then the Mexicans, and so on.
These nativist sentiments have almost always accompanied larger and more general attacks on native working class people, they have often happened during economic contractions in which the ruling class needed to fire loads of people, so they targeted some groups and then blamed them for joblessness and poverty even though it was because of the economic system making them poor and unemployed!
This is a trick played by the ruling class. If you are sincere, please think about this because falling for these ideas is like being a feudal peasant supporting the King who defends peasants from the evil aristocrats... when, in fact they are all on the same side despite monarchical myths about being the defender of the people.

Furthermore, the Left is also-pro Islamic.
I'm not religious. I am against persecution and repression though and I oppose attempts by right-wing Christians in the US to promote pro-war and anti-immigrant sentiments by scapegoating and attacking Muslims. I'm also against European "secularists" using secularism as a cover for anti-immigrant, anti-arab sentiments.

Why do they want our Europe to become Eurabia?
Our? An arab person living and working, even born in Europe is not European?

Dear Germany and German culture is in danger, and the Leftists don't care.
I care about the working class and the health of the German, US, UK, Chinese state is actually a detriment to all working people in the long run.
Besides, what's all this talk about a nation, hell, the US is older than Germany.:lol:

Mind you, these worries are shared by millions of Germans.
Europe is in danger of becoming an "Eurostan".
Bullshit, European workers are in danger of a huge onslaught of austerity. The US workers are too, but there's not as much fat to cut so to speak because we've been dealing with more severe cuts for a generation now. The lot of the Greek workers are what Europeans should be fearing not some right-wing hysteria about "foreign culture".

The Right is picking up strength because workers are sick of all this, and the Left keeps ignoring the issue. I don't want a Nazi Germany again.
If the European left isn't taking a strong stance and making material pushes to organize working class fight back and solidarity between native and foreign-born workers and also fighting scapegoating of immigrant groups, then it looks bleak - not for nation states who will reap from our disorganization and in-fighting as a class, but workers will have a bleak future of downward mobility and cuts to services and assistance programs... all of which will be carried out by national leaders while some blame immigrants for causing these cuts that the ruling class wanted anyway.
