German Minister: Closed Borders Will Lead To Inbreeding
2016-06-10
[Breitbart] Germany’s Federal Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble has declared that if Germany closes its borders Germans will degenerate through inbreeding.

Federal Finance Minister Wolfgang Schäuble has made it clear that he does not support a securing or closing of the borders of Germany for various reasons, including what he believes may be the downfall of the German people: inbreeding.

According to Mr. Schäuble mass migration is a great opportunity for Germans to become more diverse as a people, especially the mass migration of Muslims: "For us, Muslims in Germany are an enrichment of our openness and our diversity," Tagesspiegel reports.

#11  That's a double facepalm.

Actually Breitbart didn't get it quite right. Schäuble didn't say Germans will degenerate through inbreeding, he said Europe would.

Given the fact, that Europe has more than half a billion people, this is even more absurd.

#9  Estimates vary, but a sufficiently diverse gene pool requires something like 300 individuals. So, I think Germany, at 80 million, should be OK.

And they call us anti-science...

#6  What is the minimum size group you need for successful future generations? Isn't it something like a few hundred?

#5  If Herr Schäuble wants to commit suicide, why doesn't he just go hang himself instead of trying to destroy all of Germany as well?

#4  Clearly someone who doesn't understand closed borders are not hermetically sealed.

#3  I'm starting to think the whole ruling class has a cuckold fetish.

No wonder "cuckservative" is a thing.

#2  Inviting a closed community that already engages in inbreeding doesn't answer that issue, unless you are looking forward to rapey rape. That would explain the government's policy of down playing that reporting.

#1  "For us, Muslims in Germany are an enrichment of our openness and our diversity,"

My dear Herr Schäuble, please re-examine the historical evidence.
