This video is idiotic. It tries to tell us that 250k people isn't a big deal, but it completely ignores the fact that ISIL which caused this whole mess only has about 100-200k people in Syria/Iraq.

Just look at Syria and what the 200k ISIL fighters did to it and then tell me if 250k people can't fuck up a country.

And no, that's not saying that all refugees are dangerous and belong to ISIL, but trying to argue that the numbers are harmless is utterly ignorant of just how few people are needed to bring a country to a complete collapse.

This guy is one of those permanent optimists who is responsible for pulling the wool over everyone's eyes, telling everyone that everything is going to be OK. That means he has a vested interest in leaving out any information that might cast doubt on the idea that things aren't as bad as they seem and will always get better. It's really sickening watching this guy talk, especially during his TED talk. People just eat his shit up, too. This is why we are never going to solve any of the monumental problems we are currently facing, because people look to guys like this to tell them why they shouldn't worry so that they can go on not caring and living their lives the way they want.
