‘Whiteness’, low youth engagement and lukewarm pro-Europeanism in some states risks eroding bloc’s founding values, expert says
Voting patterns and polling data from the past year suggest the EU is moving towards a more ethnic, closed-minded and xenophobic understanding of “Europeanness” that could ultimately challenge the European project, according to a major report.
The report, by the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) and the European Cultural Foundation (ECF), identifies three key “blind spots” across the bloc and argues their intersection risks eroding or radically altering EU sentiment.
The report, shared exclusively with the Guardian, argues that the obvious “whiteness” of the EU’s politics, low engagement by young people and limited pro-Europeanism in central and eastern Europe could mould a European sentiment at odds with the bloc’s original core values.
Yeah it’s them immigrants causing problems with their “whiteness”!
Your solution to a lack of diversity and tolerance of other cultures is to further squash them?
France is already abhorrently racist as fuck, not being worse isn’t the cause here.
What does anti-democratic religious fundamentalism have to do with skin color? Have you met American Christians?
Also, the only diversity I care about is intellectual. Why would we base our immigration policy on “race” quotas, which is what you seem to be suggesting, instead of merit? Especially when the bar is so so low. Don’t be a religious shitbag. Easy.
That’s great that you don’t care about diversity, the non-white Europeans who suffer the effects of your xenophobia certainly do as is evident by the report.
