Population replacement, sometimes also called race replacement,[1] and increasingly popularized in the Western world with some variant of the term The Great Replacement, is a socio-political concept describing a demographically plausible outcome of international migration by peoples from the Third World into Western countries, and, to a lesser extent, the Far East. These people in question are often referred to as refugees or migrants. They may arrive as asylum seekers, hired laborers doing jobs the local population can't perform due to sub-replacement fertility,[2] or illegal immigrants. This has caused increasing social changes and disruptions throughout the West, and a resulting rise in online and sometimes violent real-life anti-immigration activism.

Meaning

Critics of population replacement claim the original populations of many Western countries may be partially replaced by these migrants and their offspring.[3] They wish to reduce the amount of non-Western immigration.[4] Otherwise, people of northern European origin may become a minority in Europe, North America and Australasia. The critics claim this would cause social problems, as the newcomers may have incompatible cultures, religions and even genetically determined personality traits.

In the USA, the number of non-white children under the age of 5 exceeded the number of white children for the first time in 2014.[5][6] However, only a minority of these children were immigrants or the offspring of post-1965 immigrants.[7]

People[8] who believe in the existence of, or state they oppose population replacement, are often accused of racism[9][10][11][12] and of believing in or propagating conspiracy theories.[13]

Demographics

Immigration opponents point out the newcomers contain a significant majority of young men, sometimes referred to as lost boys, or less innocently as fighting age migrants, a population movement which they claim has aspects of an invasion.[14] The extent of the male surplus is somewhat hidden by classifying all under-18 migrants as children.[15] Opponents worry the resulting male-heavy gender imbalance may make it harder for some local men to find wives, and alter European demographics.[16][17]

Leo Hohmann's 2017 book, "Stealth Invasion: Muslim Conquest Through Immigration And Resettlement Jihad", claims that Muslims of many ethnicities are conspiring with American left-wing groups (ranging from far-left organizations such as Antifa to mainstream churches) to import refugees to the USA. The alleged goal is to create numerous "settlement areas" where Muslims will form a local majority, and from there increase their influence over the country as a whole, including through further immigration. This process is allegedly supported by both major parties.[18]

Purported fact-checking website Snopes.com has been accused of liberal bias in attempting to minimize the impact of migration.[19][20] Additionally, the online encyclopedia Wikipedia has also similarly been accused of having strong pro-immigration biases and sympathies.[21]

Culture

Fears of population replacement have long been a subject of pro-white groups and individuals, initially dating back to eugenics theories popular in British colonies during the early 20th century, where it was feared that the majority populations would eventually supplant the white settlers.[22]

By 2015, population replacement had become the subject of many critical English-language blogs with diverse but generally right-wing viewpoints, such as iSteve, Vox Popoli, Chateau Heartiste, Kakistocracy, Lion of the Blogosphere, Return of Kings, Jim's Blog[23], and Outside In. These blogs assert population replacement may be a deliberate policy to import low-cost labor and new voters for the politicians who allowed the migration.

They claim that, once this process has begun, it may become irreversible.[24] It may already be too late to avoid violent chaos.[25]

The Great Replacement

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>

Since 2010, French writer Renaud Camus has been warning of the danger of a "Grand Remplacement",[26] the colonization of France and the rest of Europe mostly by Muslim immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa, but also by other Third World peoples, which through their higher birth rates and cultural domination threaten to make Europe into an extension of these lands.[27][28][29]

The term has been used in anti-immigration protests and political debates, but has been denounced as a myth by mainstream politicians, such as New York Representative Jamaal Bowman, and Camus has been prosecuted, while subsequently being derided as a conspiracy theorist, for condemning the demographic effects of the Replacement.[30] In Italy, the politician Enza Bruno Bossio has welcomed partial Replacement in areas with a declining local population.[31][32]

This term was also used as the title of the manifesto by the perpetrator of the 2019 Christchurch mosque shootings, Brenton Tarrant. He claimed that Muslim and other Third World immigration constitutes an existential risk to "the continued survival of the white race." Additionally, the perpetrator of the 2022 Buffalo shooting, Payton S. Gendron, also endorsed the "Great Replacement" theory in his own manifesto.

Electoral politics

A 1966 edition of The Reporter, a socially liberal American magazine, described Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith as having convinced white Rhodesians that their only alternative to his government's Rhodesian Bush War was "dictatorship and white genocide" by communist-backed black nationalist guerrillas.[33] These predictions essentially came true by the twenty-first century, due in part to large-scale white flight from the former Rhodesia since its defeat in the Rhodesian Bush War, amongst other reasons (see also: Land reform in Zimbabwe).

Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States, did not mention population replacement while he was in office from 2017 to 2021, but some of his proposed policies were argued to have possibly slowed this trend, if it exists. These included his campaign promises of deporting all undocumented immigrants, building border fortifications to make it harder to illegally enter the USA, and temporarily suspending immigration from Muslim countries as a security measure. Once Trump was in office, only a small portion of these policies were realized, often claimed by critics to have been influenced by his son-in-law Jared Kushner. Since Joe Biden became the 46th U.S. President in 2021, he has reversed most of Trump's executive orders.

A political response by the native population against their replacement may be to form a "zero immigration" movement. Members may even call for migrants to be repatriated to their lands of origin. However, mainstream commentators and opinion leaders in the late 2010s and 2020s have strongly opposed such movements,[34] and worked to deplatform their members. Mainstream conservatives, sometimes pejoratively called "cuckservatives" by their opponents, also condemn zero immigration as racist.[35]

In European politics, several right-wing, alt-right, and far-right parties, like the Front National, Golden Dawn, the National Democratic Party of Germany (NPD), Sweden Democrats, the Nordic Resistance Movement, and Britain First, wish to reduce or abolish immigration.

Non-political meanings

A more neutral term is replacement migration.[36] In demographics, population replacement may also mean the ratio between the birth and death rates, and the time it takes for a given population to be completely replaced by its own offspring.[37]
