@krishnaharrish2@kelvinlym@TheFuturizts - Tax relief is the amount deducted to your yearly income BEFORE we calculate how much tax you have to pay.
- Tax rebate is the amount deducted from the total tax you have to pay.
These numbers are real but the interpretation is completely off.
Low birth rates in Europe aren’t the result of replacement, mixing, or some secret agenda.
They’re the result of Europeans themselves choosing fewer children because of:
• high cost of living
• late marriage
• economic pressure
• dual-income households
• urbanization
• career prioritization
• social systems designed around individualism
That’s demography, not destruction.
Meanwhile, high fertility countries are simply doing what every population has done in history when they’re young: grow.
Human groups have expanded, collapsed, migrated, blended, and reshaped one another for 300,000 years.
There has NEVER been a permanent, isolated ‘founding population.’
Every major civilization is the product of waves of migration and mixing.
Europe itself?
• Celts → Romans 👉🏾Goths 👉🏾 Moors 👉🏾 Vikings 👉🏾 Slavs 👉🏾 Normans 👉🏾 Turks
There is no single ‘original population.’
There never was.
And here’s the key scientific point:
Demographic change does NOT erase people.
It creates new variations of people.
Skin tones shift. Languages shift. Cultures evolve.
That’s exactly how every modern population was formed.
Calling this ‘the end of the West’ assumes that culture is static and biological but culture is learned, transmitted, and constantly reinvented.
And fertility collapse?
It’s not racial.
It’s economic.
South Korea, Japan, China all majority Asian have fertility LOWER than Europe.
By your logic, they should also be considered ‘disappearing,’ but we never frame it that way.
Why?
Because this isn’t about race.
It’s about modernity.
Migration isn’t erasure.
It’s the oldest human behavior on the planet.
Humans left Africa in multiple waves.
Humans mixed with Neanderthals.
Humans mixed across continents long before borders existed.
This moment in history is not an anomaly it’s a continuation of what humans have always done.
Fear doesn’t come from the numbers.
Fear comes from the belief that identity is fragile.
But identities evolve.
Cultures adapt.
People blend.
Humanity continues.
This isn’t the ‘end of the old world.’
It’s the beginning of the next one just like every era before it.
Yeah a guy who walked in to a team who had just won the league with an open cheque book is better than someone who rebuilt a club from top to bottom who hadn't won the league in over 20 years
@ivedprakash@SisyphusUnleas@reaper1_10@RepBrandonGill That's not specific to christianity though. Basically all religions subscribe to the same principle. In fact, the literal meaning of "Islam" is to submit to the will of God. Not exactly "In God we trust" but close enough.
Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.
No pilot will ever top the pilot of lost.
The Lost pilot cost over 10 million dollars to make, more than some entire TV seasons. The plane crash alone became one of the most expensive scenes in television history.
