    Default Germanic unity

    I'm curious about ideas on Germanic unity and what members on here think about it. It's a very loose concept and there would be various degrees of expressing unity, if such feelings exist.

    There's greater economic cooperation, cultural exchange, a Germanic Union and so forth. What kind of cooperation, if any, would be viable and desirable?

    I would consider any sort of Germanic confederation - British Isles, Scandinavia, Low Countries - but not if Germany was involved.

    I would approve of any effort to see a Germanic Cultural Union, but I think that cultural, not economic, exchange is the most important aspect of any such "Union". I worry, though, that the Cultural Marxists who generally rule the Scandinavian countries would turn any such union from a Germanic Union into a Turkish Union very quickly. I would therefore only approve of such a programme if it were explicitly anti-communist and anti-immigrant.

    I suppose the following has a certain "In an Absolut World" quality to it, but nevertheless:

    Thanks but no thanks. I prefer to stick to the good, old Benelux.



    And some close economic cooperation with Germany (our Guilder pegged to the D-Mark) - with Germany being an unofficial fourth member and an observer.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    I want more Germanic areas with different flavors. Today we don't have enough traditional cultural diversity- all the Germanic countries have the exact same unhealthy ideology, social erosion, multiculturalism, massive immigration, and politically correct zombie citizens.

    I want a massive new cultural renaissance that places more value in "social capital", community bonds, folk events, more creativity, traditional art, family values and traditional philosophy, and a greater value of the sacred/spiritual.

    Cultural exchange? As long as it strengthens the style of each Germanic area and doesn't erode uniqueness away.

    Economic Union? Sure.

    Political Union/common currency? No.

    The average Scandinavian is feeling quite distanced from Germans, Britons and Austrians not only culturally but also socioeconomically and would most likely opt for an even tighter Nordic co-operation.

    Islamic immigration is lower in Denmark and Norway than in Germany or the Netherlands, and Denmark has one of the strictest immigration policies in Europe. I think only Finland and perhaps Switzerland have stricter immigration policies.

    What happened to your European federation idea?

    All of these territories separately, you mean? Or together?

    Do you have any ideas on how to achieve this?
