That's literally how the real world works. State violence or super power violence is exactly this playing out.

When people from outside Europe started migrating to the USA? What a coincidence.

I don't understand this single dimensional view of the world where one country has to be the "winner" or "best". Historically that has almost never been the case except for militar…

Which are the indigenous ethnic groups experiencing dissolution?

Isn't that basically a recurrent neural network?

Such articles about Europe always seem to ignore skilled immigration and pretend it's not important. Europe sucks at attracting skilled immigrants compared to the US, or even Canad…

What value does it provide over linking to the original source? Any website that constantly asks me to login is spammy in by book. It's a for profit website that adds little value …
