    This is such a Lemmy take. Even a child can comprehend why borders are a necessity. The world is an unequal place that’s filled with scarcity and malice. In order to protect your society’s social coherency, economic prosperity, and values, you have to enforce borders

      The EU did stop to enforce internal borders. It lower inequality within the EU and made the rich members better off, by providign cheaper workers. There is a reason Brexit causes so many problems for the UK.

      That is not to say that opening all borders overnight would not cause problems. It clearly would, but in the end the world would be a better place.

      A lot of people in Lemmy want everything to burn down. They seem to think that bringing everything down to their level means victory.
