The opinion of the majority of Americans doesn't mean anything huh? Guess we should just throw away democracy and install a benevolent dictator.
"And nobody was harmed" that's complete bullshit. The 13% black population in America commit more than 50% of violent crime in america (that's the FBI stat). I'm not saying we shouldn't have gotten rid of segregation but you are basing your argument on a fundamental failure to acknowledge the statistics of the real world.
"Enforce systems to elect the best possible rulers" how does this work? Do some people get less vote? Do some people get more? That's literally fascism. Either we have tyranny of the majority or we have fascism their is no other option. Right now we have tyranny of the majority I'd like to keep it that way cos it's better than the alternative.
Fuck emotional narratives. Suicidal empathy will be the death of society. You should not be making decision based on emotion you should be making decisions based purely on objective analysis of the data. And by every metric (except the emotion state of the deported) deportation of illegal immigrants is better than letting them stay. Economy better, Crime better, house market better, job market better. Etc. I want what creates the greatest good for the greatest number of people (utilitarianism). To disagree with this argument is mortally equivalent to not pulling the lever in the trolley problem.
How do u make integration happen? Do you force people? Who integrates into who? Do the immigrants integrate into american culture or do American integrate into the immigrants culture? Or do we all meet happily at the end of time right in the middle? Cos we both knows that's an appeal to an impossible fantasy. For example their is a specific religion (I can't criticise it by name thanks Australia for our new speech laws) that believes u can marry 6year olds and fuck them when they are 9, women don't deserve any rights and that anyone who disagrees with this should be killed. How the hell do u plan to integrate that into American culture? By force? Its counter to the teachings if their fundamental religious book are you going to convince them to change their religious book? Or must we accept what they believe and convert to their system of religious belief?
