Nice Substitute: This Nation Imported an “Entire City” of Third Worlders in 2025

Imagine that Montana imported close to 400,000 Third World migrants, the equivalent of a medium-sized city such as Arlington, Texas, in just one year. Would that be a good idea? Could you foresee any problems with assimilation and manifold other issues? This question is apropos here because this is precisely what a Montana-sized country — Germany — did just last year.

Oh, the analogy may not be perfect. While Big Sky Country only has one million residents, Germany has 84 million. Yet some may point out that being so densely populated, the country has an added incentive to shut its borders.

Instead, those complaining are just told to shut their mouths — sometimes, persuasively, via “hate speech”-law application.

There’s an irony here, too. This new Third World “migrant city” came in during a year when the German government promised to restrict immigration. So what was the supposed alternative, having two Third World “migrant cities” enter the country?

Reporting on this story Friday was commentator Olivia Murray. She first pointed out that German authorities’ initial 2025 migration estimates were well below the actual number. The government had supposedly admitted about 300,000 new foreigners, related Murray, “only rejecting asylum petitions from a few hundred applicants.” The real number?

Sources state that total 2025 migration into Germany was approximately 500,000 to 600,000. And “non-European Union migration,” as they put it (aka “Third World”), alone amounted to around 371,000.

My, it could bring to mind the United Nations’ 2000 report “Replacement Migration.” Yes, that’s its actual title.

The Realities

Murray pulls no punches about what this migration means. This is a “city” of Third Worlders, she writes, largely

unskilled and unable to function in a first world economy…immediately jumping onto the taxpayers’ backs….

Many also bring a “culture of pedophilia, incest, and rape with them,” Murray adds.

The commentator then presents “the problem at scale.” When we get to the bottom five largest German cities of the top ten, she writes,

we see Leipzig with its roughly 500,000 residents — which is getting close to the 2025 admission numbers now reported by government officials. And, if we look at total admissions just over the last ten years, we see a drastic increase. The ROCKWOOL Foundation of Berlin (headquartered in Denmark), a nonprofit which “supports research related to social and economic challenges to the sustainability” of welfare states and programs, released a report just over a month ago that “Germany’s immigrant population rose from 16.9 million in 2023 to 17.4 million in 2024 (or from 20.3% to 20.9% of the population)….”

Even this understates the case, however. Germany’s total “migration-background” population now actually accounts for a whopping 30.4 percent of the country. (“Migration background” references those not born with German citizenship or having at least one parent who wasn’t thus born.)

Murray then continues, cementing her point:

When you add up the top five largest cities, which already have significant migrant populations in them, you get 9.1 million people — and when you consider that the foreign population was 17.4 million as of two years ago (it’s only increasing), that means Germany’s five largest cities could be filled entirely with foreigners, not a single white European to be found, and there are still almost 8 million more individuals spread out throughout the rest of Germany.

Double Standard

Interestingly, many could just imagine the reaction if such population replacement occurred with, let’s say, a primitive Amazonian tribe. “This is cultural and demographic genocide!” an anthropologist might exclaim. When it happens to Western populations, though, it’s called “diversity.”

Other Western nations do reflect Germany in this, too. Consider the United States. Western-origin peoples constituted fairly close to 90 percent of our 1965 population.

Today, our non-Hispanic white population amounts to only about 58 percent.

Note, too, that this kind of rapid, nation-rending demographic change is unprecedented in all of man’s pre-1900 history.

That is, apart from invasions and conquests.

Examples would be Germanic migrations into Roman territories (4th-6th centuries), Mongol/Turkic settlements in conquered regions (13th-15th centuries), and Ottoman resettlement in the Balkans (15th-17th centuries).

Perhaps now it’s clear why some people call the massive migrations into the West an “invasion.”

The Warning Signs and Warnings

That’s essentially how Dr. Mudar Zahran, a Jordanian Opposition Coalition leader currently living as an asylee in Britain, termed it. While a self-professed practicing Muslim, Zahran warned about the mass Muslim migration into Europe in 2015. He called it “the soft Islamic conquest of the West.”

One of that migration’s main authors, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, wouldn’t go that far. But she did admit in 2018 that Muslim-dominated “no-go zones” do exist in European cities and that multiculturalism has “utterly failed.”

Also in the “Better Late Than Never” file is diplomat and political scientist Henry Kissinger. Though devoutly establishment-oriented, he finally confessed at age 100(!) in 2023 that Germany’s migration regime was “a grave mistake.”

Why, even the aforementioned UN “Replacement Migration” report recommended caution. It stated that the European aging-nation malaise couldn’t realistically be fully remedied without enormous, politically/socially challenging volumes of migration.

And what problems have arisen, and are worsening yearly, because of this population replacement? There is of course the markedly increased crime, massive welfare costs, and cultural upheaval it brings. Then there are those no-go zones, those mini-nations within nations. The problem is so bad in France that in 2017 one of the country’s “intellectuals” recommended creating a sort of quasi-Sharia state within the nation — to avoid civil war with its Muslims.

Is Everyone Assimilable?

How this happens was perhaps best illustrated by an anecdote a writer recently related. New Year’s Day, Kari Stark recounted an experience she had while living in Minnesota, where she’d made Somali acquaintances. As she told us at Substack:

I will never forget the moment that my belief in a shared understanding of basic morals and ethics was shattered. I was talking to a Somali friend I had recently met about the short-sightedness of lying for political ends when he responded, “why would I care about that? They’re not my tribe. Those are your rules, not ours.” …

No single event in my life has moved me to the right, or shattered my naivete, more than that hour long chat.

The kicker is that endless immigration is unnecessary. Just consider Japan, one of eight “aging” nations the 2000 UN report analyzed. That country addresses worker shortages, first, with automation. (Given that artificial intelligence and robotics are naturally going to replace massive numbers of workers, anyway, this is rational.)

Second, Japan issues millions of work visas, primarily to people from other Asian nations. Yet far less than one percent of these workers will ever become citizens. This makes sense. After all, if you have leaky pipes in your home, you hire someone to take care of them.

You don’t adopt a plumber.

That is, unless you’re plumb stupid, suicidal, or a globalist.
