Aside from racism. I mean economically/socially, what issues does too much immigration cause?

    Problems start when the people coming in don’t share those sentiments and instead want their authoritarian culture to replace and dominate.

      Like Christianity did you mean?

      That said, I don’t disagree with the sentiment - the respect should come both ways and the imigrants should respect the native culture, but that also doesn’t mean they havento give up their own.

        I agree! (Also about Christianity, fuck anyone whose dogmatism causes them to disrespect any marginalized group.)

        But I don’t think anyone should tolerate intolerance. If it’s part of your culture to subjugate women and hate LGBTQ people or other religions, you will have to change that part of your culture or fuck all the way off.

      That’s a fair thing to be concerned about, but are we really anywhere near that level of immigration in the US? I can’t speak for European countries.

        Both the US and Europe would be much nearer to that level if any migration was allowed unchecked. It is becoming a problem in Europe and it is growing. It’s just a sad reality that democracy can’t consist of people who don’t believe in democracy.
