For me, it has always seemed funny that people are so worked up about immigration lately. There are so many jobs that are being unfilled for an number of reasons. If immigrants are happy to fill those jobs, why would we deny that. Sadly, I think a lot of it actually has nothing to do with jobs or money, but a large number of (white) people in the US feel like they are becoming the minority and that doesn't sit well with them. It all seems pretty irrelevant to me, but who knows...
Yes, this is the case at the social level for sure. It is part of the divisive narrative to keep people from actually thinking about what is happening. It maintains the status quo for those in control.
Definitely the wrong thing to be focusing on in my opinion.
i don't think becoming a minority in your country is somehting you can sit back and let happen. Look at the UK that is fast becoming a Muslim country and that is unthinkable because the country will forever change. They ae not adding to society and the vast majority are living on benefits with no intention of working. If hey added to society and integrated that would be different, but they are not there to do that. This is far more than an economic migration and is a more of trying to conquer Europe with the enemy sitting within the borders. There will be war and one would be naïve to think there wont be.
I'm not sure it's actually happening like that here. Maybe it is and it just isn't as obvious because we have more space. I don't think people are purposely trying to replace us though.
