This. The common middle eastern folk are victims of the oil trade; constant millitary/political puppeteering has eroded the pillars of society taken for granted in the west.

You're an idiot if you think they're worthless. They're probably worth more than an idiot who wastes his time on 4chan trying to figure out ways to "scientifically" show he's better than middle Easterners. We made their problems and before there was modern weaponry, it was easier to have revolutions since the people and the government were on more equal footing. Besides, a lot of middle easterners are coming to western countries at the moment because they're escaping war and for economic opportunity. It's the same reason your white European (I'm assuming) ancestors came to America and were violent assholes toward the people who were already here.

Imagine you own a factory. All the machines in your factory have to be built from scratch in a process that takes, let's say, 18 years. Over the past half century your machine building has fallen off, but it was fine at the time because you had a large number of functional machines. Now though, those machines are starting to wear out and there soon won't be enough newer machines to pick up the slack.

Meanwhile, a factory down the road has just gone bust and they're handing out all their relatively new machines completely for free. It's true a few of them have some bugs or a couple of cogs loose, nothing that can't be fixed up without much effort. In the absolutely worst possible case scenario they might even explode and take out a handful of your other machines, but almost all the exploding machines seem to prefer to stay back in the original factory like it's some kind of holy ground and indeed, the worst case you ever had (about 15 years ago) wasn't even related to the current influx of machines and only took out the same number as you lose to traffic accidents in a month anyway. In exchange for all this, you have free machines with long working lives ahead generating you wealth which you can then use to buy more machines, and keep your current ones in service.

The main problem is interfacing the new machines with the ones you built yourself. Your most recent machines have no problems working alongside the imported ones - being about the same age they have similar requirements and ideal conditions, with looser tolerances and more flexibility all around. However, your old machines do not like the new ones at all. The slightly different vibrations from the new ones seem to rattle bolts loose all throughout your older sections, which are already struggling with the demands of assembly lines they weren't built for. The question is: do you throw out all the new ones and stop accepting any more for free, or try to loosen up the tolerances of your older ones?

It's a crude metaphor.

But yes, the capacity of the machines to decide the future of their own factory is exactly what complicates matters. The authority of the 'factory owners' must be derived from the consent of the machines in their factory, but there's no reason any of the machines should be equipped to understand the vast socioeconomic context in which they reside nor to be able to navigate it to find their best interests.

What part of this fucking thread is about Islam? Oh right, the part you brought up out of nowhere because "liberals == muslims!"
First of all 'liberal' is a retardedly vague definition anyway, let alone 'leftist' - I mean fuck, just generalize half the traditional political spectrum which was never exactly defined to begin with. Either way, a summary glance will tell you that radical Islam is obviously and completely incompatible with liberal values, i.e. egalitarianism and personal freedom. But fundamentalist Christianity is equally as incompatible (mainly because it focuses on the old testament, completely missing the part where that one guy died so that everyone could have their sins forgiven and stop having to be stoned for talking back to their parents), and after being defanged into its current mostly harmless, primarily cosmetic form it manages to get along with modern society, more or less. Likewise, once all the angry men in the desert die off and the main muslims left are the slightly overweight girls that wear hijabs and have tumblrs about baking and Doctor Who, Islam will in turn become an ineffectual set-dressing for a few groups' lives - and in the mean time, the people that believe in it don't stop being human or having understandable motives.

You already have a containment board for a reason - your existence is unsightly, and everyone wishes you'd been aborted; in summary, it's disgusting to interact with you, and watching you try to defend yourself by shifting the topic back to a religion - which has no place on this board whatsoever - are just as pathetic as the fact that your parents had to fuck to produce a dead end like you.
