I do not know. So many young people are brainwashed into thinking that the mass immigration was a good thing. Those same people will also call me racist because I am saying this. The people will suffer (and they are, children are getting gang raped in england) while these immigrants are filling our governments with money. We are all screwed. This is coming to our country too.

If you stop to think about it for only a few seconds it’s obvious why mass immigration is bad for any established country. This has been true throughout all of time as far as human history goes, but anytime you mention it people call you racist to shut down discussion. It’s actually crazy how much people want to destroy their own homes.

How many immigrants are being accepted exactly? Like, is there a quota, and a selection method? Do you know how that is being done?

Assuming you're a bot because it's hard to imagine someone is this ignorant.

Please go through and look at the majority of the top comments calling to end mass immigration, yours included, and then count people calling others racist and shutting down discussion.

Clearly it's not "anytime you mention it", like you're saying. But we all knew you were wrong to begin with.

I know you thought you cooked but this is only because the tides have been turning lately. A few years ago you’d hear a different story.

Define "mass" immigration

I hear so many conservatives say this bullshit, how people on the left somehow support "mass immigration"

No. People on the left support immigration. We support it because it strengthens the economy, and for refugees it's simply the morally right thing to do.

"Mass immigration" is a racist dog whistle intended to involve the idea that immigrants are somehow "invading" the country. And unfortunately, tons of people who are unaware of that still use the term without thinking.

How is importing a bunch of people to live off of the government (your taxes) going to strengthen your economy ? , a lot of these people come over with no skill , no studies and some of them are even criminals , or their beliefs do not align up with yours, and they are not ready or willing to assimilate either , so how will that work ? It has nothing to do with racism or "the right thing to do " , the governments first priority should be to its own people, when they are all good ready and set , THEN can you start to think about helping others

That would require violating our obligations to refugees, from the Geneva convention.

There is an international treaty for refugees that was signed after ww2. Before and during ww2, many jews fleeing prosecution in nazi Germany were turned back by countries and when the genocide became public there was a never again sentiment. 

As of that treaty we cannot just turn all refugees back, we have to offer profection. 

However Europe has made its own migration pact now aiming to discourage economic migrants from trying to come. They are not refugees but they often try to claim so. 

Additionally there is a large amount of migration within Europe that, by European treaties, countries cannot impede, just like California can't ban, like, Ohians from moving to California. That is by far the largest stream of migration. 

So like 90% of migration are people we cannot stop. Then there is also the marriage migration and work and student visa migration, it's minor in size after subtracting those that go back as well. We can impede that a bit.

You support it because you got tricked by billionaires. You have to compete for housing and jobs, this keeps normal people down, you're always replaceable, more people will be imported. You have to live with crime and imported problems. Meanwhile rich people are doing great. Not that long ago, anti-immigration was actually labour thing and something that ie Democrats in US cared about as it supported working class.

u/Ur_Just_Spare_Parts 3h ago

Naw im not competing with immigrants for housing or jobs. Im competing with private equity. One company being allowed to purchase thousands of residential homes in certain counties or regions is far more damaging than the person cutting grass locally having a place for themselves and their family to live. You think you understand the argument but you don't understand the concept of orders of magnitude and are therefore, completely ignorant in any discussion regarding actual residential home sales

Weird how it's the billionaires forcing the opposite viewpoint since forever.

Weird how it's the billionaires funding fighting anti immigration since forever.

Weird how the very politicians who say it's migrations fault that things are bad are literally millionaires or billionaires(!) and are sponsored by billionaires.

Weird how one can track the degradation of social services and the ghetoisation of cities and countries lack of finding to a reduction of taxes upon the rich and an increase in billionaires wealth who then use that same wealth to push policy and lobby to KEEP cutting tax so that they can get MORE.

Weird.

Create a problem, say you're against it, get people talking about the wrong thing.

u/BoxofF0rtune 25m ago

They don’t just “say” they’re against it though? Elon Musk is actively donating hundreds of millions of dollars to anti-immigration congressional officials. Are you dense?

Normal people? ("This keeps "normal people" down").

That says so, so much about you.

What level of immigration do you support and do you agree that citizens of a country should be allowed input into what their country should accept?

u/PrinceDuCaca 1h ago

Mass immigration is literally a tool of the ultra-right (not the conservatives, not the far-right, but the megacorpo owners) to import cheap labour, then when they get papers and can claim better salaries, import new ones instead, rince and repeat. They couldn't care less about what happens to the locals, it's all about cold profits. Guess which idiots are used to politically enforce the mass immigration? That's right, most flavours of the left. Mass immigration doesn't create wealth, it creates massive spikes for those select few megacorpo owners before they're not their problem anymore as they get papers. What happens when they get papers? They majoritarily stay on different forms of welfare as their spawns make for the bigger part of crime in the country per capita. If you think that's an economic win, think again. If you think that's a cultural win, please start thinking for the first time ever.

Tbh we did have mass immigration in the 40s, 50s and 60s. The colonies freed themselves and there was a huge influx of people from those who wanted to come back or needed to. And,  we enticed all the migrant workers to come over. Then they got citizenship and stayed and got stuck in poverty traps. I agree with you on the rest though.

u/Ronin_777 2h ago edited 2h ago

Canada has a massive issue with immigration right now. It has put strain on things like housing, public services, entry level job availability, wage growth, etc. it has gotten to the point that even a lot of liberals are saying enough is enough. It is not just the number of immigrants coming in either, but the quality has dropped significantly as well. They come in on shoddy student visas acquired through diploma mills.

If you have to import immigrants en masse to support the economy, then you have not addressed the issues that created the need for them in the first place. You have just created a system that requires indefinite and ever increasing levels of immigration to sustain itself, until one day it will collapse in on itself.

Hand waving these issues as being nothing more than “racist dog whistles” is unproductive and ignorant. And just for the record, I am not white.

Libs fault. Im not even a republican but I can see this sht man. Sad thing is they won't ever wake up until its too far gone.

People won’t call you racist for being against a non existent thing like “mass immigration”. People will call you racist for suggesting immigrants are gang raping children.

u/AudienceNearby1330 1h ago

Rest assured, most of the children in getting raped in the UK are overwhelming being done by good hard working Britons.

u/zac115 6h ago

In their minds, it's better to virtue signal and signal to the rest of the world that they are a good person. that they're not racist. This whole white gilt bullshit. And they will continue to do this till something happens to them that makes them rethink how they have been advocating for mass immigration. The more frustrating part is that there are people that come from these mass migration influxes, and a lot of them do not assimilate with the culture. They demand to bring their own culture over and set up their own little enclave within the culture that they're supposed to be assimilating into. And thus causes strife between the people that are already there and the community that they're immigrating into. And then as soon as the two different cultures collide, they have the audacity to call you racist. It's so tiring and it needs to stop.

it's true that they are under a lot of pressure to conform.

I wonder how I would act if I was a highschooler who would become a social outcast for disobeying. I'd like to think I'd say 2+2=4 but it's tough.

u/Chare1155 5h ago

It's not mass immigration ruining the planet & killing us all! It's all the pedo billionaires & the politicians they buy! Just TRY to think critically here, for even a moment & stop blaming other poor people for your problems. Take aim at the real enemy, not your neighbor.

If my "neighbor" is setting my livelihood on fire and taking everything from my store, you bet your ass im gonna take aim at that "neighbor"
