@cell @lain this is a sensitive topic. "sensitive" meaning if you talk about it truthfully in a way where people could make informed political decisions about it they might say no so you have to shut down discussion at all costs since the decision was already made by our elite class.

it's not unique to the USA it's just any place with a lot of cultures together, except _how_ it happens and the expectations placed on the immigrant groups. politically you are not allowed to be integrationist anymore, expecting foreigners to adapt to their new country is racist. I am not conceptually opposed to immigration personally but I strongly believe in integration and trying to make one culture. I believe that if you don't try to make one culture out of everyone immigrating then you end up needing an authoritarian government to suppress conflict. Another way out of this is let in anybody from anywhere but have requirements like university education.
