And by immigrants I really mean immigrants: you don’t have the nationality and live in the country = you’re an immigrant.

I keep reading about the plans of parties to kick out all immigrants, stop letting in any, and some parties even advocate to revoke dual-nationalities and kick those people out too. I’ve never really understood what the point of it is and have trouble imagining what the effects of such actions would be within the country.

    To put in the words of my favorite 4chan post

    they think he can reopen the gypsum factory where daddy used to make $20 an hour, as if Bumfuck, USA could even work through their meth withdrawals long enough to fucking perform the job adequately.

    Basically they claim that think that if immigrants go then lower class workers will be compensated better. But this is a lie. They don’t actually believe this because they don’t want labor to ever be compensated better. The goal is just to get everyone’s consent in oppressing a minority because that gets people to overlook their own exploitation.
