The “we were never asked” thread about immigration.

"Over these last 30 years, no government has been elected on anything other than a promise to control immigration and yet immigration has proceeded at a transformative speed, adding millions of foreign nationals to the resident population."

A fascinating thread illustrating a completely broken system. I did not even realise that mainstream parties made (rhetorical) commitments on reducing immigration - I was under the impression that they were just ignoring the issue completely. I am glad to see that instead of doing that, they have just opted to lie again and again for decades.

Some will say that this immigration is a consequence of colonialism (previous ties factoring in, like Indians to UK) or that the migrants simply choose these nations on their own because they are the most developed, on top of everything claiming that migration has existed throughout human history.

immigration is a consequence of colonialism

Many countries, such as mine own, don't have colonial history, yet we are still shoved the diversity propaganda down our throats. The only reason why they bring them in is the money, better to have some third-world slave doing the work for minimum wage (or often times below the minimum wage) than to pay your fellow countryman adequately.

migrants simply choose these nations on their own because they are the most developed

They often do so, but that's a matter of policy. Why should we accommodate them unequivocally?

migration has existed throughout human history

True, but so what? Times change, contexts change. Rape has existed throughout human history and is a natural process and is still normal in some parts of the world, does that mean we should legalize it?

Countries that were victims of colonialism are now flooded with migrants. UK and France and Germany have a history of colonialism, and instead of recognizing their errors against other white countries they only selectively recognize their colonial history in Asia and Africa.

Yes, some people are indeed retards.

I should mention that none of this matters anyway, as the point is that the members of these nations voted in their supposedly democratic systems to disallow these immigrants entry, and voted for parties and politicians that claimed they would honor these wishes and reduce or eliminate such immigration and replacement.

I find it ironic that the people who spend their time screeching about authoritarianism and the downfall of democracy will go on to say that the villeins and peasants shouldn't be able to vote for things that block hyper-progressivism and coercion of many varieties that our leaders seek to subjugate us with. This does nothing but reinforce my position that democracy, like communism, doesn't really exist, it's a stated goal used to pacify morons and the politically obsequious/uninterested into accepting a tyrannical death-cult system.
