Are countries today just large elaborate corporations? Every other country (and not just western ones now look at Japan) seems to be replacing their citizens with cheap foreign labor. They would rather import MILLIONS of foreigners with completely different cultures into our countries to keep productivity up and profits up instead of just giving their native population a living wage and proper benefits to encourage HAVING KIDS AND HAVING FAMILIES which is where the next generation of workers SHOULD have came from. So what is the point of defending a country in a war if it’s just a corporation now? What is the point of having any pride or confidence in your country if it’s just a corporation? am I being over dramatic or is this really the way it is now? ONE IN FOUR US DOCTORS IS FOREIGN BORN WE ARE EVEN OUTSOURCING OUR FUCKING DOCTORS
>>545187854>anymoreIts always been this way. Nothing new.
>>545187896Bullshit- an extreme example would be Japan being originally isolationist. Now today theyre importing boat loads of foreigners who are the cultural antithesis of their culture —because the Japanese modern society makes it so difficult to have a family.
Space force needs me to do 8 hours of exercise for 90 days straight and they jailed me in my own house, waking me up at 4:30 everyday so I can do my "part". You're gonna send me to jail because I just smacked my dad again and called my mom all kinds of names. They're enlightened though so they're not really the same people. You guys tortured me for 31 years straight and put me in jail twice. You even hid the knives. You're gonna send me to jail and I'm gonna take the jew chemicals to fuck myself and then that's it. You don't really care about me. If you did would you try to set me up with underaged trannies or try to blackmail me into marrying your granddaughter because you fucked me over and want to double down on fucking me over? HH o/ You guys are jews otherwise I would work for my country but I havent ever felt a sense of camaraderie with your trans daughters or fag sons. I honestly no cap hate all of you except my wife and even then I have nothing to live for because she can only see and never touch me. I'm tired of living you think I want to be alive doing this?
>>545188023Japan became isolationist only because Shogunate wanted to consolidate its power. It had nothing to do with ethnicity.
>>545188432By modern standards most countries in the past were isolationist and ones that seemed to have relaxed policies abour letting people in most likely only did so bevause logistically there was never a risk of millions of people randomly showing up.
>>545187854more like country that should be nuked.
>>545188956Passports became a thing only in the 20th century. Before that you could move around more or less freely if you had the means to. You have a romanticized image of the past. Kings and queens of the past were just as racially conscious as modern rulers are. They did not give a fuck as long as this did not interfere with their ambitions.
>>545189106Vlad the Impaler was a product of the past. I don't think we'll see a ruler like him ever again. Modern monarchy and papacy would never enact a reconquista or crusade either. Hell, you used to have to be white to vote in the early history of the US.
>>545189106Also language was a big factor. You couldn't skip countries and expect everyone to speak english.
>>545190706Language and religion were the primary factors of organization in general. OP seems to think that some 13th century France was extremely nationalistic, but no countries back then built their identities on nationality. A peasant in France had no idea he was French, he identified himself based on language, religion and the monarch he served.
