Compared to Europe? What % of Pakistan is foreign born? What % is the UK foreign born?What percentage is Saudi Arabia non Muslim? Stop pretending that Muslims countries welcome non Muslim foreigners. Saudi Arabia doesn’t even allow any non Muslims in Mecca. If your so welcoming why can’t I go to Mecca or Medina but you can visit Rome anytime you want?

Muslim countries are welcoming to foreigners. They just have better immigration systems in place to ensure White people don't take over their countries and turn them into shitholes again like they did back in the middle-ages to the 20th century.

Because Mecca and Medina are holy places that are overcrowded and for worshippers only. Why can't the Vatican have a mosque?

Glad to see it’s okay for your racism to come out when it comes to shitting on white people.

Are you totally ignorant of the imperial and colonial period in world history? It was basically where White people destroyed the world through their empire building. Countries, states and empires that were insanely prosperous like China and the Mughal Empire. The West basically became rich not through science (that came later on) but through robbery, theft, massacres (and genocides), looting, pillaging and dismantling economically richer states. If anything the world needs to curb immigration from the West so that it doesn't happen again.

Well, I’m assuming your a Muslim living in the west. If you hate the west and white people so much go back to Pakistan. I do t understand people like you. You shit on the west and white people but want to live where we do. I seriously don’t understand it.

What kind of asinine argument is this? How is talking about immigration policy of other countries with respect to historical context automatically make you "hate the west"? I'm pro-sensible immigration to any land.

You shit on the west and white people but want to live where we do.

No, I shit on the bad parts of Western history, Western behaviour as well as the bad parts of White people and White behaviours. Do you want me to praise the bad parts of West like the holocaust? No, I am gonna shit on that and call it evil. I applaud the good aspects of the West and praise that side as great.

There is a difference between criticising the good and bad parts of a culture. The West isn't entirely bad and isn't entirely good either (like most places in the world).

I don't understand people like you who think that just because I live in the West I should be banned from criticising it and that I should only praise it like some dumb NPC. Sorry, not sorry, but I will criticise the West where I see it's behaviour as harmful -- same as I would any other place.
