There are some differences between the immigration issues within America and that of the UK
Part of culture is the rules by which people operate, differing rules is largely the point of contention.
I'm going to use Pakistan as an example, I'm also going to try and ignore anything to do with skin colour or style of clothing.

1. The concept of Jugaad
This is a concept that does not necessarily translate to western culture.
A hack or workaround, someone who posses "Jugaad" takes advantage of the system for purely self interests.
Being forced to do something that does not directly benefit you would be considered low Jugaad
If you wish to be seen as being more important you would never clean up rubbish from the streets for example since it would be perceived as a weakness. Forcing someone else to do work a strength.
It's part of the reason for all the scam call centres and why we've had people throwing rubbish over the fence next door.

2. The caste System
Long ago Brits had they're own version of a caste system
In modern times lower, middle or upper class is seen more as a measure of how much money you have
but in the past it was also a sign of breeding in so far as some white people had better breeding than other white people.
We abandoned the idea of a social caste system long ago, these day's it's more about money
places like Pakistan still have it, you cannot marry up through the caste system in India especially with arranged marriages.

3. Gender equality of rights
It's generally accepted from a legal point of view that everyone has equal rights regardless of gender
In Pakistan this is not the case, minimum age varies by district, differing religions place additional restrictions on females
this has led to accusations of "family voting" within places such as Gorton
(this is where the husband tells his wife what to vote for)

4. The Rape Gang Report
This is one of the big ones over here in the UK
Part of the culture or the rules here, defines white women has being inferior therefore fair game

5. Immigration
On average the UK spends around £118.87 per person per night to house asylum seekers
Free food, free housing, free healthcare all of which will likely be taken from state pensions which will likely no longer exist in the long term.

Now if all the above points related to white people but just from another country such as Denmark
It would not make any difference, there would still be friction, not because of race but because of rules
It's not "ethnic cleansing" It's culture and the rules by which we have to cooperate by, if you don't play fair people get angry.

If you want to encourage a perspective as part of a debate it's important to state reasons instead of just expecting people to accept a perspective without reason. For example if someone is lying what are they lying about in order to establish a clear point of view and a logical pattern.

A common feature I've found when seeing perspectives from the left side of the spectrum is an obsession over race or appearance. But race and culture or the rules associated with culture are separate entities. The rules someone follows as part of a religion or heritage cannot be assumed based on appearance.
Generation X typically were exposed to a lot of television during the 80's to make us not judge a book by it's cover, it's our default position for a lot of us.

But I will admit it's becoming more and more difficult with all the scandals in the country coming out recently
https://rapeganginquiry.co.uk/

I think this was the original cause behind all the drama
https://world.hey.com/dhh/as-i...

It's not really right wing of course, but certain groups encourage the idea that any form of disagreement with the group think even if respectful and non aggressive needs to be squashed. This is why this post will be heavily downvoted I'd imagine.
In some cases people like to amplify the drama to gain points with like minded friends in groups to drum up emotions.
It's a type of behaviour encouraged over time via social media similar to schoolyard bullying

In the above blog post it's highlighting some of the impact the current immigration policies have had on western nations.
Being a Brit myself and seeing things first hand within Birmingham, part of what defines a culture is the set of rules you live by and are raised by within your family, but the rules people from less developed countries follow tends to be more similar to the rules western cultures followed several hundred years ago.
As an example, cast systems such as lower middle upper class's, or male ownership of females, non acceptance of alternative sexualities etc. This in turn creates friction if people arriving want to keep they're existing ways and take over instead of adapting, since it means going back to the old rules or even rules that lead to the natives determent.

The leaders of Golgafrincham convinced their populace that the planet was going to be destroyed by an enormous mutant star-goat (or similar nonsense) to purge one-third of society.
They built three arks: Ship 'A' for leaders and scientists, Ship 'B' for middlemen/useless workers, and Ship 'C' for real doers and makers.
Ship 'B' was filled with hairdressers, telephone sanitisers, management consultants, insurance salesmen, and tired TV producers.

> So your solution is acid rain, cutting supply, and generally doing everything other than addressing the nations with the largest and most significant per capita emissions like the USA?

The sulphur in the shipping fuel was acting similar to geo-engineering.
Does it cause acid rain? probably, although I would argue it's going to be better than heatwaves or burning down forests, especially if the acid is just dumped into the ocean.
There are other options as well such as titanium dioxide, but we can't have that because of course there has to be only one option.
The only one option rule has become something of an obsessive cult following.

Countries such as Russia (5.1%) India (8%) or China (33.1%) are not going to pay any attention to ether you or me or anyone else.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/art...

The USA (11.7%) which I'm not a part of, has to compete with those countries in order to survive and have jobs.
Something someone with a lot of money passed down from they're parents typically doesn't need to worry about.

> Try and formulate a response without sounding racist or elitist.

A single country has multiple races so I really don't understand how racism comes into it.
A countries policy is typically defined by it's leadership as part of politics and the economy
Typically these issues need to be viewed from a perspective of an economy or how it impacts those with a lower monetary income.

> Absent revolution on a global scale, I don't see a way out of this.

Here's some ideas

Re-introduce sulphur into the shipping fuel back to what it was originally

You could ask china to pretty please reduce it's manufacturing
https://www.worldometers.info/...

You could ask india to stop melting tyres

Or try Geo-Engineering

Oh wait we can't do that because there has to be only one answer, which involves asking china and india which will laugh in your face

One of the features of modern languages is type inference, this is where the compiler works out the type of a thing based on the value that's assigned to it.
This can help shorten the code (variable definitions), other things to help can be extensions to Visual Studio Code to show where there's a type mis-match
With dynamically typed code typically you can take a hit with performance, also it can lead to painful bugs to find especially in Javascript.

CSharp and Visual Basic (dotnet 2.x, 4.x, or the latest 11.0) is fully statically typed
Python tends to be more dynamically typed (similar to VB6 perhaps) but it's more for back end scripting
Rust tends to have additional complexities on top of static typing, in that it has requirements on how variables are passed around (the borrow checker) which makes things more complicated, but it was originally designed as a systems level language such as low level drivers or the sort of thing you'd find in C, so is more focused on memory safety at a lower level.

If they ever give webassembly access to the browser DOM / the same level of access that JS has
then in theory you could just take your language of choice to compile that to webassembly as a sort of IL.

This is how CSharp works, it's compiled to an IL which is sort of a cross platform assembly language
then that IL is converted to native assembly at runtime.
I suspect there may be some resistance to giving webassembly this level of access due to favoritism towards JS by certain dev's

The issue with communism is that it assumes everyone is honest, including those in charge.
In reality you end up in a situation similar to the soviet union where certain groups or towns end up with more privliedges than others, this town x over here is where the party leaders reside so they get all the good stuff etc.
My father got to see it first hand in hhe 1980's

> Are you actually living in the UK?
Yup

> Racism is fucking rampant in the UK. Has been for a long time. You pretending it doesn't exist or pretending it wasn't a deciding factor for some people is just ignorant. Go and explore your own country and get out of the house a bit. Ideally go with a black or Indian friend (you have those right?), or someone named Ahmed. Maybe after witnessing what it's like first hand you'll get a clue.

This is about Brexit not generalised racism.
As in what the deciding factors for Brexit was, like I said cheap polish labour.
In my case I have relatives in the building industry, I also used to work in an office in the same building as the polish embassy (the lift's were constantly full of people with pram's filling up the lifts annoying the hell out of everyone)

Being Gex X myself I got to glimpse both sides of the coin.
The generation before mine, during the days of Bernard manning, those were really racist (go look up some of his vidoes)
From what I heard (before my time) if someone was black and got off the train in my local town, they'd be escorted right back onto the train.
They even used to run TV shows during the 80's such as rising damp Lenny Henry etc to get people use to others with a different appearance
My generation growing up during all of this had it drilled into us not to give a shit and had a different level of exposure, we were taught never to judge based on appearance.

If you were to re-run brexit now would it be about race?
I would say very much so, realistically people's view's have been skewed a lot due to the immigration issues.
In reality it's actually more of a culture issue, with people from far abroad following a different set of rules and trying to import or force those rules onto the locals.
But the average pleb isn't going to care about that, instead they'd just simplify it to a race thing, simply because of all the non stop stabbings and two tier justice all over the news recently.

The issue we're going to run into is that justice needs to be applied equally to all
You don't get to be coddled like a child just because of a different colour
If you start giving people special privileges or free shit that's when the riots and the vigilantism starts to kick off

Lol racism had nothing to do with it
Living in the UK myself, people stopped caring about race from Gen X onwards
What was happening at the time was a large influx of people from poland (white not black)
bearing in mind this is legal migration with proper paperwork, not rubber boats

Business's tend to hire people who are willing to work at the cheapest rates
so they were out competing areas such as local UK workers in the building industry then sending the money home.
Then stories started to ciculate of factories that were hiring polish workers only
this led to a general feeling of being taken over by brussels.

After brexit took place several events took place
The WEF were accused of shenanigans with fiddling the numbers for the UK
https://www.euinsider.eu/news/...

Gaddafi was removed from the equatrion, possibly due to threatening the petro dollar with his own gold standard
This in turn opened the flood gates

> Foreigners do not go places unless they can get jobs, which increases your economy. They are cheap labor for you to exploit, not a drain on your economy.

Of course they do, if the place involved has free benifits, free health care and free housing
why wouldn't you? you'd be dumb not to try if someone offered you free shit

> Having foreigners telling you what to do is well worth it if YOU can also tell the foreigners what to do. Uniformity of rules makes everything easier. It is only a problem if they do not let you help make the rules.

Within the npm ecosystem package managers have an option for packages called arbitrary lifecycle scripts
In the case of bun or pnpm they don't run these unless it's on a trusted list

I would say this is true in that it's primary target originally was systems programming.
But it has seem to have taken on a lot more than that moving forwards, such as compiling to webassembly with frameworks such as leptos
Or full blown desktop applications with libraries such as egui

Most people tend to focus on the memory safety as the biggest reason, but I would say actually there are a lot of other different reasons for it gaining popularity.
1. It has a easy to use build system (cargo) it just builds on any platform including windows or linux and cross compiling is extremely easy even for embedded.
2. you can bring in libraries or external crates (build time dependencies) without magic cmake scripts / autoconf / automake / scons / Makefiles / any number of different build tools
Arguably this can lead to supply chain attacks, but the trade off is you can keep those libraries more uptodate and it's easier to add them without git submodules or other workarounds
3. No worrying about different size int's on different platforms with different custom macro's between libraries to check the size of an in at the operating system level
4. Full static typing, no ambiguity with pointers or structs
5. traits (interfaces) more of a C++ feature
6. modularity or namespaces, no having everything in a global scope such as what C does or the old pre module Javascript does where every function call has to be unique.
You can work around these in C with tools like valgrind but it's not perfect
7. Readable and helpful error messages, where it points you at the likely candidate for the fault
8. No legacy headers to worry about
9. Macro's are actually useful not magical for the most part, such as default values or serialisation

Dealing with the borrow checker or typing can be a little tricky, but I've found AI / chatgpt actually works wonders for this if you just use it for that reason only

Wait a second was this news article written by AI in response to the first news article?
Is it getting smarter and self aware

Ultimately everything that's going on at the moment is due to a new cold war between the US and China
There's been a lot of accusations of political bias when it comes to the WHO recently
So really this is just another fuck around and find out moment,

In the same way everyone keeps trying to argue about the origin of covid
People seem to be more interested in not the logic if an statement is true but the identity of the person making the statement
If something is true doesn't seem to matter as long as what its being said is on they're "side"
