Whites are becoming the minority by 2056Whites- are becoming the minority by 2056

I read this ( not daily mail!) on MN -is this actually a true / statistical prediction?
I can send the link to the thread that stated this .
I have never heard this before . I assume that this is not accurate at all .( also assume applying to uk) .

I don't think anyone from any culture should be under pressure to marry anyone.

I can understand people choosing to marry within their own religion or belief system. As an atheist, I would never have chosen to marry a devout Christian or a devout Muslim etc, because our priorities simply wouldn't have been compatible. Likewise, while I have greatly valued the benefits of being married to someone from a very different culture from my own, I do understand why some people might choose to marry someone from their own culture, with rituals and traditions that are very similar to their own. I don't think wanting this is racist.

I can also understand why some parents might hope that their children will continue to practise a particular religion or follow particular traditions etc, if their religion and traditions are important to them. They may believe that their children's lives will be easier with these things in common, or they may just hope to see their grandchildren following the same traditions and rituals etc. Again, I don't think that's inherently racist.

However, I do think that parents from all cultures and ethnicities should respect the choices made by their children and accept it if their children choose to follow a different path. And if parents refuse to accept a chosen partner simply because they happen to be of a different ethnicity, then yes, I think that's racist.

I am afraid I don't know enough about traveller culture to be able to comment specifically on their "taboos".

Oh no, now the racists can't even decide on whether minorities are treated better or worse 😂

Tell me your thoughts on banning 'Merry Christmas'?!

@RingoJuice is saying white people would be discriminated against if they became a minority. Meanwhile @Stepintotheunknown claims that white people are being discriminated against now, despite being in the majority! Poor whites can't win!

Tell me your thoughts on banning 'Merry Christmas'?!

Oh now you've done it, you go to jail just for saying Merry Christmas nowadays 😁
<disclaimer> - sarcasm for those who need one

Even if it is true, why is it a problem? Of all the things to worry about, why would anyone pick this?

Hey it’s your country, you’ll do what you want.

But I don’t think it will go well for you. Well me and my children will have somewhere else to go. You will not.

It doesn't even say EASTER on EASTER EGGS anymore! Shaming the memory of our traditional English pagan goddess (white) Eostre. Can't say anything these days 😡
Oh wait, maybe she came over here with the Germanic tribes actually... Nevermind.

I think some posters are majorly deluded about how they are seen by others.

And ethic people are not a homogenous mass all ready to intermingle. Various groups detest each other! Ever heard of gangs?

As much as anything it’s a class thing. Ds’s friend is Muslim. His dm was saying to me that someone suggested she could be friends with a fully-covered lady at the school gate. She was really annoyed and said that in India she would be considered our equivalent of a complete chav.

They don't want to become the minority in case they get given a free house and a job and are favoured by the government I think?

This will no doubt get deleted, but if you have somewhere else to go, why don't you just take your nasty racist views and fuck off to your alternative destination sooner rather than later? And please take your kids if you have brainwashed them to be nasty racists too.

Exactly, you'd think they'd just go if they felt like that. After all, they've said they can. Off you pop, then.

I don't think all members of any society could possibly all agree on what constitutes common interests, because opinion on that will depend on your position in that society.
You have decided to single out ethnic diversity as the barrier to consensus while ignoring things such as sex and class. As a WC white woman my interests would probably be more closely aligned on many things with a WC black woman than a middle class white man for example.

No, Ringojuice was responding to the implication in the quoted comment. The implication being that we’ve done bad things to others so we reap what we sow. Except that is not necessarily correct when you look at the wider picture and the world in which any claimed ‘bad things’ occurred.

You not being ‘bothered’ about being in the vicinity of people who are not white is not relevant.

The issue that OP raises is one of the predicted displacement or outnumbering in this country of people of an English ethnicity.

If people were talking in such dismissive and even celebratory ways if the erasure of any other ethnicity, you would be outraged. But with us it’s fine, even defended.

Not sure what you mean by that, but I'm white. And I have an EU passport so I probably have more places I can live than you do.

What are the other predicted displacement theories?

If people were talking in such dismissive and even celebratory ways if the erasure of any other ethnicity, you would be outraged. But with us it’s fine, even defended.

It's not an erasure! The thread is about white skin becoming a minority, not about it being removed completely.
And it's not going to happen anyway, it's a scare story by and for racists.

Open thread on race replacement theory on Mumsnet. Don't even try to hide it now, do they.

It’s a shame that so many in this country are unable to recognise our English and British cultures for what they are to the extent where they claim that English or British culture doesn’t really exist.

Your claims also erase the cultural history of people who have moved into this country. Many immigrants are rightly proud of their heritage and traditions but in seeking to claim that a sudden influx over a short period of time (10-20 years) denies their influence and impact on those already here.

We have a very distinct national identity and ethos which is partly what draws people here. To pretend that isn’t really a thing is just untrue. To equate our national cultures and traditions with racism is disgraceful.

My dd is not white.

I really can't imagine why the mere fact of her having dark hair, brown eyes and skin that tans a bit more easily than most could in any way put "British values" at risk. Or indeed why anyone else would feel threatened by her very existence.

The mind boggles.

There is academic modelling which projects that white brits will be a minority by 2060. Not that its needed, we've gone from 95% of the population in 1991 to 75% in 2021. Call it a far right white nationalist conspiracy theory if you want, congratulations on cramming so many lefty buzz words into a single sentence. But we can all literally see it happening and the data proves it.

The Boris wave has happened since the last census data recorded the white British population of the country at 75%. It's likely to be closer to 70% now and it'll fall further still by the next census unless there is a drastic change in immigration policy. It doesn't matter whether the words "replacement" or "colonisation" are triggering for you, call it something different if you want. Its clearly happening though.

So erasing the English majority in England. If we are not the majority, it will not be possible to maintain our cultures and traditions at a national level.

Why does it matter though?

As stated above, my dd is mixed race. Why would her skin colour/eye colour/hair colour affect you in any way?

Do you have links to these academic studies?

Maybe something without these triggering lefty buzz words

We are the majority though. This is scare mongering nonsense with no actual sources to back it up.

Which traditions do you think you will be forced to abandon?
