It’s their most important issue by far, and it hurts if you are not of European descent

What utter BS ! You are insane OP.

This administration supports legal immigration.

Trump was very clear that he only wants immigrants from White European countries.

Then why are my schools and new neighborhoods (in my area) continuing to have more h1b? It’s concerning because I’m like where are the jobs exactly? Aren’t these perfect jobs for new college grads?

People now in our schools are moving straight from India. If you ask them, it’s their first time living here. They were brought here for a tech job (suburbs to nearby city, or some are working from home). They did arrive with an h1b

I agree that the powers that be would LIKE to do that, but in reality the white nationalists are a minority. Clock is ticking towards 2026.

This. The current moment sucks. But real America is a melting pot, and diversity is our strength and joy. MAGA has a flawed idea of American culture, which is based in freedom and democracy and respect for all individuals. This quest for some fictionalized idea of 'Murica is a minority obsession, and it will get quashed.

But this is exactly the issue, America is not a melting pot anymore. It definitely used to be, but over the last decade or decades less and less. The immigrants from each country have been staying tightly packed together with their culture, language, beliefs and religion, no outside influences allowed, and don’t even mingle between one country and another. We haven’t been melting together for a long time.

There is no evidence this is true or in any way different from past generations.

Exactly. People pretending that “immigrants these days don’t assimilate like they used to” have never spent more than five minutes talking to one. Xenophobes were making the exact complaint 100 years ago. It was baseless then, and it’s baseless now.

One issue is we have been told over and over that the extra, non-legal immigrants add so much to the economy because they pay taxes, do necessary jobs, and buy stuff, and they do not cost taxpayers anything, but that does not tell the whole story. If you have kids in a local public school district you know that the commonplace demographics of 50% English Learner, and 50% free lunch does not overlap 100%, but it overlaps. Your school district tells you that each kid costs 20K per year. They tell you that currently about 15K students from the most recent class are enrolled as “Dreamers” in in-state college (most with scholarships and heavily discounted tuition), so last year the school districts statewide spent 300 million dollars extra for just that one single year on Senior enrollment for students who have not been here legally. (“They paid taxes!” - If they were in the free lunch group how much tax do you think they paid?). How many local school districts have recently proclaimed they have these extra millions of dollars, every year, no problem?

Yeah, but the capitalists back then were using racism as an excuse to exploit people, unlike today when they really are just kinder gentler non-xenophobes. Like the Chinese building the transcontinental railroad and slavery in the south.

Schools are funded mainly through property taxes, which everyone pays either directly as a homeowner or indirectly as rent to a landlord who then pays the tax. It’s not like income tax where very low-income people may not have much tax burden.

So yes, all the people you look down upon are still paying their fair share for schools in this case.

Notice how you didn’t address the main argument. Do you have a study or analysis that shows immigrants in modern day assimilate more slowly in the U.S. than they did in the past?

The fact all you can do is make flippant comments about immigrants speaking Spanish tells me you do not have proof of anything. All you have are your worthless feelings.
