In this case, you always need to remember that the internet and substack is a selected microcosm of especially neurotic and oversocialised people. I am very sociable, with several big groups of friends and acquaintances made of middle-upper classed Europeans, and I have never seen all of this, in particular regarding to women. Everyone loves to show up, especially if is a situation with strangers or not very well know people.

Because all Europe and the US and the west in general has internalised the Marxist framework of sadness, anger and depauperation caused by oppression, believing that people that receive more are more peaceful and more amicable to the system. While the reality is the Nietzschean framework of ressentment turbocharged by equality. The more people will be democratic, equal and fair, the more they will absolutely hate each others.

Good luck to all rightists in the next years, trying to dodge the incoming 1000 years Unlimited Immigration Reich. The problem is that immigrationism is an extremely powerful ideology, because everytime you try to go against it you need to use force, and force make normies have the ick, and reinforce immigrationism. A lesson for all future societies, if we will ever have one (Demography is the most important thing ever and nothing else matters)

Just to be sure, I checked the balance of my Italian, and famous for being always disfunctional, for at least 30 years, public/private public transportation company that administer my city metro system and bus system. It has a positive sheet, and has been the same for the past few years. Is true that new trains and tunnels and infrastructure are payed by the central state/region/city/EU, but the company can absolutely pay for herself both the personnel costs, the training and fixed expenses.
EDIT: I read that this WMATA has a police force (!!!) of 550 people. This is insane
I do not have time to add a more insightful comment, but it has been hilarious and expected to see ALL the 2nd gen Arab-Italians that I personally know, all of them perfectly integrated and secular, taking the sides of Morocco despite being certain about the Israeli involvment, only because they by instict take the side of the coethnic against the Europeans they in theory have become part of.
Integration my ass. I will write in the future a comment on how "fake integration" actually works in Europe.
