White Briton’s will be a minority by 2066

    Demographers believe that if the immigration and fertility patterns of the past 20 years continue then this will be the last century in which Europeans will be the majority in Europe and other currently White nations. It’s fascinating to think a day will come relatively soon where Murphy, O’Connor, Fitzpatrick Etc and pale Irish children will all be minority’s in Ireland. I personally believe Europe’s politics is about to enter an extreme phase with conflict and terrible ethnic divides within Europe in this century.

    What are your thoughts and predictions ?

    I agree with you on the extreme phase of divide and conflict coming. Look at the population growth in these countries, they'll be bursting at the seams and plus, they're more affected my climate change so climate migration will be a big factor.

    If all goes well, it'll just be an integration and eventually, we'll all be a moulded race. We've been migrating as people for thousands of years, our borders are quite new.

    I don't care what the colour of people's skin will be in 2066 and I don't think the kids at that time will care as much as you either. It'll be grand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,184 ✭✭✭85603


    wont be around so dont really care.

    also 45 year predictions dont usually pan out. we were all meant to have a big clunky personal robot with an inbuilt microwave following us around the house and lighting the childrens cigarettes for them by 2000 according to people in the 50's.

    everyone was meant to be driving 3 wheeled electric cars shaped like rockets. and by everyone i mean just the man of the house.
    father would drive his rocket car while the bloopatron 2000 helped mother make cakes in the kitchen. it was all so predictable.

    These predictions aren't as baseless though, we know for a fact that fertility rates have pretty much bottomed in the west compared to emerging economies like India and sub-saharahn Africa. The world will have an extra 2 billion people in 30 years time, most of which will be African and Asian, while we're not having babies at near the same rate. It doesn't take a genius to see how it'll pan out and power to them, time for them to get their slice of the pie unless we **** it up somehow.

    a 45 year prediction is about as accurate as met eireann.

    a strand of rna 1000s of times smaller than the tip of a pin recently ground the global economy to a halt. how many eggheads in 2018 factored that in to their numbers.

    what if a fantastic new male birth control option with zero downside and absolute minimal cost gets invented in the meantime.

    maybe its like viagra but also with a birth control effect. and costs pennies. gives you a rager and stops any pregnancies, which means shes good to go year round.
    men worldwide would be all over that, births would plummet.

    I don't think you really understand what you're talking about. Population growth is fairly predictable, this has nothing to do with pandemics or super contraceptives, it's pretty much a sure thing that we're going to have an extra 2 billion people in 30 years. It's this current generation being born that will be having these 2 billion children in these regions, so if you really think we're going to provide that many people with a super contraceptive that doesn't exist yet and think that everyone will be willing to take this super contraceptive that doesn't exist yet, fair enough.

    Governments across the globe are preparing for this population explosion, it's pretty much inevitable unless we have some kind of mass extinction within the next 30 years.

    In the last 30 years, we've added an extra 2.5 billion to the world population, so saying that we'll have an extra 2 billion in the next 30 is hardly the same as microwaves walking and lighting cigarettes.

    This isn't a 45 year prediction either, this is 2050.

    and theyre all going to move to europe because reasons.

    the world is an extremely chaotic place, intergenerational predictions are naturally questionable. theres nothing sure about it. youre treating a 45 year prediction like it was the word of god. the next mao or the next aids could come along and swing those numbers wildly.

    I cant make out - are we talking about Irish or Brirish or or European?

    Have you some links to show us which demographers are saying this?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    One prediction that I certainly think is not baseless is that there will be limited to no pension for those seeking to retire post 2050.

    I believe we will be looking back on public sector pay and pensions from 1995-to date with significant regret and scandal.

    I think my pension is due to start in 2053. Whoop!

    I think the ratio of working:retired at that point goes from approx 5:1 today to 2:1 by then, maybe even sooner.

    I don't believe by 2066 white Irish will be a minority. Perhaps white British in Britain, yes, but they are also much more multicultural than us at present

    I don’t see how a discussion about an entire race of people becoming a minority in their ancestral land is anti-multiculturalism, it’s an existential crisis. Don’t we owe it to our ancestors and future generations that we survive and thrive. Why is it evil or wrong for white people to be concerned about their race. I believe it would be a catastrophe for Japanese or Indian or sub Saharan Africans to be a minority in their regions. Multiculturalism is fine but the host people should always remain the majority, how is this even controversial ??

    Why is it only ever people clutching their pearls about multiculturism who mention "sub Saharan Africans"? It's a great dog whistle, like people talking about gangs of African youths.

    North Africans have substantial Ottoman, Arab, Spanish etc DNA mixed in but Sub Saharans are very homogeneous and relatively unchanged since very early times.

    Race I don't have a problem with.

    It's archaic religious (we're nearly rid of that ourselves without reimporting) and social beliefs I'd have a problem with.

    To expand, I'd be equally unhappy with an influx of white scientologists.

    Nobody said they can’t, we’re talking about a foundational change. Changing millennial old continental demographics over a few decades. As in for example If tens of millions of Europeans went to Nigeria over the next 25 years and Nigerians became an ethnic minority in Nigeria. I think that’s appalling.

    Britain is just one example, and yes I do believe a future non white makeup of Ireland, Britain etc will be very unsympathetic to their white minority’s but wouldn’t it be appalling for a people’s to allow themselves to become an ethnic minority.

    Why is it appalling?
    That's just life, if lots of people emigrate to certain countries, then the demographic will eventually change. So what? What's is wrong with that?
    Nothing wrong with change, particularly natural change.

    Mass immigration is never a good thing as it always causes ethnic tensions in the region it happens. Now I do believe immigrant groups in smaller numbers is a good thing and help innovation in business and culture by bringing in new ideas.
    You can see that there is now a major turn in some European nations policy to migrants and I do think in the coming decade we will see promotion of ethnic European birth rate over migrants.
    Also to be fair op if it is black immigrants from Africa that you are worried about they actually make up a very small portion of the people coming in. It is mostly north African and near East Region from Turkey up to Pakistan. And if they could lose their backward religion they would integrate quite well
